ᵘⁿᵗⁱᵗˡᵉᵈ story ♡︎ chapter ᶠᵒᵘʳ This day is going by Slower than a turtle. I woke up at 7 thinking, “Hey! I should be more responsible On waking up early and eating.” But now it’s barely 2:15 And I’m really tired. Max must know that I’m tired, Because he hits me on the head. “Hey!” I say, slapping him on his shoulder. “Gosh, you’re so dramatic. I didn’t even Hit you that hard!” He laughs as he sits down. “Your sense of humor is weird.” I tell him. “Anyway, I’m going to be in my room Reading because I have nothing better to do.” I start getting up. He jumps up from his spot on the couch and Stops me from leaving. “Wait, since you’re going to leave, I just wanted To give you your birthday present.” I look at him blankly. I don’t feel like telling him again that I didn’t want anything. “I know you said you didn’t want anything But I know how much you love reading so I Got you a book I enjoyed when I was your age.” He hands me the book, unwrapped And I take it. “Yeah, you enjoyed it back in the olden days.” We laugh. “I’m kidding. Thanks, Max.”
