I guess I could give Dad something for his birthday...
Like most of his plans do, Shawn's latest plan ran smoothly. As he expected, his Dad was nowhere to be seen (and he only had to give a quick look at the backyard, the kitchen and the garage to be sure of it). Sweet. Henry was probably still checking this week's latest tool novelties on his Monday trip to the hardware store.
He opened his backpack and pulled out a card and a package, which he left -apparently- carelessly on the kitchen's table for Henry to find. Perfect. After finishing today's good deed he grabbed one of his Dad's beers and headed to his couch. He finished just in time to catch the Lingerie Football game rerun.
Dad:
Hope that this year you learn to be a little less of a grumpy-ass.
Happy B-day.
Inside the package: a BBQ sword quit, complete with a Zorro mask that will probably never be used.
