Blue Haired Boy

Arc: Past Blues & Whites [Continued]

April 1- *12 years ago*

"Ken!" My dad yells once again from the kitchen. "Ken! Wake up!"

I turn around in my bed, unwilling to get up. Suddenly, I hear footsteps from the stairs and into my room.

"Ken......"

I tightly close my eyes, and try my best to fall asleep. Suddenly, I feel a splash of cold water on my body.

"Ahhhh!" I quickly get out of my bed, and look down at my clothes that is soaking wet. I quickly face my dad, with a frown on my face.

"That's what you get for not waking up." He throws a towel to my face. I let it sit there. "Get ready," he says.

I finally finish taking a shower, and begin to put on my clothes.

I look at my bedside table to look at the time. It read 4:32.......pm. I scratch my head, realizing how long I've slept for. I begin to stretch, and loudly yawn.

"Hmmm....What should I wear....," I whisper to myself. I finally decide to go for a blue theme, and quickly put it on.

I'm pretty excited. It's probably going to be another work day. I skip down stairs, and see my dad making his daily coffee.

He hears me enter the kitchen and turns around. "You ready?"

"Yup!" I smile at my dad, and he smiles back.

Before we headed out the door, I ran to the nursery and kissed my mommy good bye.

We're finally in the car, heading to work once again. My dad looks at me from the mirror, and smiles.

"Are you excited for your birthday?" he asks me.

"Yuup!!" I begin wiggling my feet. "I'm excited for my birthday party."

"I know you are. You keep on mentioning it. You still haven't told me what theme you want."

"Mhhhh....I want your job as a theme!"

He chuckles. "But you don't know what my job is..."

I frown. "Because you haven't told me yet."

"Yeah, true." He laughs. "You know who you're going to invite?"

"Yup."

"You gave the invite already?"

"Ya."

Assuming that we finished our conversation, I look out the window. I was really excited about my birthday coming up. I was finally turning 7, and I couldn't wait.
I suddenly begin to think about what has been happening at my dad's work. It seemed like David finally decided to adopt, and I was pretty excited to see who he gets. I wondered if it was someone older or someone younger than me. I wasn't sure when the child would come in, but I was looking forward to see it.
