My sister’s hands were straight under the doona and tickling my feet. ‘Fuck off!’ I shouted into the bed. ‘Birthday, birthday,’ she chanted. I flipped and sat up, trying — unsuccessfully — not to smile. Sharon dropped a purple package on my doona. ‘Birthday. Come on, open it. I’ve got to go.’ It was a beanie. A black beanie wi...th a shiny green mull leaf stitched on the front. ‘Cool,’ I croaked. ‘I knew you’d like it. I found it in Chrissy Bay about a month ago. I’ve been busting to give it to you.’ I pulled it on and patted it down. ‘So that was all bullshit asking me what I wanted last night?’ She nodded. ‘Looks great. Do you like it?’ ‘Yeah. Excellent.

Happy birthday, Gary.’ Mum gave me a pair of dirty-black jeans and a Metallica t-shirt with a flaming skull on the front.MoreLessRead More Read Less
