OR WHEN I'M 91
WITH SILVER HAIR

⇩ ⇩ ⇩

I exited my room, still in the clothes I'd worn the night before running my hands through my tasseled hair.
   "Morning",Woody said as I passed the kitchen,
"Mmh",I answered plopping down into the kitchen chair.
  "What Time is it?",I ask rubbing my shoulder,
"Nine",He sat in the chair beside me,
"Did you wake her or will I?",I ask looking over to him,
  "I can wake her",He said standing up to leave for the living room.

"What Time is it?",I heard her muffled voice through the walls.
Just as Woody answers her the phone rings completely waking me up.
I jump up and run over to the phone pulling it off the hook.
"Woody?",I hear Davy's voice on the other end,
"Correction. Sam",I say leaning against the wall.
"Be at the treehouse in ten, it's urgent",He said before hanging up leaving me to put the phone back on the hook.
"Woody",I say turning the corner to the living room.
"Yeah?",He asked from the couch where my mother no longer lay.
"Treehouse in ten, said it was urgent"

I pulled myself into the treehouse after an extra twenty minutes waiting on Woody.
    "What took you?",I heard Davy ask before I even got inside.
   "Woody took forever",I say completely entering the treehouse and sitting down beside Farraday who looked completely uninterested.
  Davy slammed a milk carton down onto the block of wood we called a 'table'.
"Wow a milk carton",I let out,sarcasm clearly in my voice.
    "Congrats, your getting your calcium, so what?",Eats said from the opposite side of me.
I turned to look at him but completely avoided eye contact noticing he was sporting a bruise on his cheek.

"Mackey is the Cape May Slayer",Davy answered almost instantly.
Farraday and I exchanged looks before bursting out laughing.
"I knew we shouldn't have taken you to the library Davy, I blame myself",Farraday mutters the last part,
"I also blame Farraday",Eats said blankly.
"No, man look!",Davy points to the picture as Farraday picks up the carton.
"Who's the missing ginger?",Farraday asks as Eats pulls the carton from him to look.
