Georgie's Birthday

Yay!
It was Georgie’s birthday again!
He loved his birthdays. He always got exactly what he wanted. He had clowns and elephants last year, but this year, he wanted a space alien party.
He was going to play laser tag all around his parent’s enormous mansion. Maybe his daddy would even surprise him and show up to play!
Then mommy would stop being so sad and get off her smelly bed and come play, too.
It would be like when he was really little and mommy was just an artist. Daddy struggled, doing all sorts of things for money, but it didn’t matter because they were all happy and daddy would play horsey with him.
“Faster, Georgie,” he would say. “Giddyap!”
But that wasn’t important anymore because Georgie could have anything he wanted now. All Georgie had to do was ask mommy and tell her special assistant what she whispered back. Georgie didn’t like her special assistant, Ralph. Georgie had caught Ralph one time trying to steal mommy out of her bed. Georgie didn’t know what “passed away meant.” All he knew was that Ralph was taking away his mommy and he loved her and wanted her to stay.
He made his ugliest face at Ralph and then ran to put on his space suit.He couldn’t wait to play aliens with his friends, and maybe even his daddy!
