Bird. Bird. Bird. Bird. Zzzz… “Morning, punk.” I squint my eyes open to see my older brother towering over me. I scowl at his sight.  “Get lost.” “Nope. Not going ‘till you pay back our deal. I won the Ludo match, pay up.” “Not nowwww.”  “I’ll tell mom what you said last week.” “Wallet’s in the drawer. No extras.” As I squint-glare at his face, he’s watching me with a sly smile.

Submitted to Contest #73

Maddie, come up here and show the class how you do a chest stand properly.” I walk up quietly, taking petite steps until I'm at the front of the gymnasium. Slowly, I lower myself down to the ground and lie down on my stomach. I kick my legs over my head and stretch out my right leg. I look up to my teacher to see her towering above me.
