"We're going to the coffee shop" says mum.

"Nah" I say.

"It will be fun." says mum.

"I like my room" I say.

"You can have a treat, nothing too much but I'm sure you're find something good that also keeps to your new diet."

I begrudgingly agreed and we started walking.  "So why do the diet thing it doesn't even help my behaviour?" I say.

"It does." says mum.

"give me an example" says me.

Mum paused for a second. "well, umm... well, there's that time in the pool when you pulled your little cousin out."

"Aha! and how did she get stuck in the first place?"

Mum sighs "umm yes, but what about the 3 hour assessment. That was really hard for you and you did brilliantly."

"And after that?" I say

"I can't remember.." says mum.

"Well I remember a lot of swearing, screaming and shouting in the car." says me.

"You have got on with your sister better lately and... oh look, we're here."

We go look at the counter.

"Can I have a doughnut?"

"No" says mum. "Not good for your diet."

"What a piece of cake or some crisps?"

"No." says mummy.

We go back in forth until we eventually agree on some strawberries and a yogurt.

As I sit down the table collapses.

Instantly I start screaming and shouting. Mummy phones Daddy then says to come and get us in the car and now please not after five games of world of tanks.

When Daddy arrives they force me, now kicking, biting and banging my head, outside and into the car. Daddy disappears back inside while
Mummy tries to strap me in.

He comes back with a slice of coffee cake and I start to calm down.

"no, no, the diet!" Mummy cries.

"I didn't think much of it anyway" says daddy.

Mum gave up the diet all together.

Thank you daddy and Thank you falling down table.
