“So did you feel spoiled?”
“Aw, did we.” Robert can feel his big beaming grin as he replies.
“We were stuffed.”
“What else happened that day?”
Robert pauses before he replies, listening to the laughter carried on
the wind.
“Is it the breeze again?” Tom asks. “Focus on it, the feeling
of it. Really listen to the laughter. What else do you remember?”
“That was the day me and James first tasted alcohol.”
“Dude. Way to go! How did that come about?”
“Mum had brought pop for us to drink, but her and Dad had Buck's
Fizz. They kept making some joke about making your mind up. James
wanted to know what it tasted of so they let us both have a drink.”
