Pete's Mom and Dad looked tired at breakfast.
The boy looked tired too, and he still looked like he was going to cry.
Pete's Dad explained that none of them had gotten any sleep last night.
Pete's Mom was sitting with him over in the lounge, watching him eat cereal while some cartoons played mindlessly in the background.
Pete, Andrew and Hillary weren't allowed to eat cereal in the lounge. Not ever, ever, ever. Not since Pete's Dad bought new carpet.
"Can I go sit in the lounge with Mom?" Pete asked innocently, craving the cartoons that were playing.
Pete's father shook his head. "No."
"Why?"
"Because no, Peter."
"Why is Patwick crying again?" Andrew asked, his childish lip showing.
Pete looked curiously into the lounge to see that, indeed, the boy Patrick was crying again.
"Why does he cry so much?" Pete asked.
Pete's Dad rubbed his tired eyes. "Just get ready for school, Peter."
This wasn't planned, but I felt like posting. :)
