A Thousand Miles
Chapter 1 - Honey?
The footpath glistened as the sun shone upon it, the trees danced as the birds chirped happily, it was a glorious day in Ramsay St, but not all was going well for the residents…
"Why can't you just accept the fact that Taylah doesn't want to be a journalist?" Zeke yelled at Brad, Taylah decided to keep out of the conversation, even though it was all about her. "Erinsborough News is the family business past down from generation to generation!" Brad exclaimed. Soon Phoebe and Pippa woke up in their pink matching pajamas rubbing their eyes "Why is grandpa here?" they asked. "Sweetheart how about you go and brush your teeth," Taylah motioned into the bathroom.
"Taylah doesn't want to be a journalist and she does not have to do what you ask!" Zeke shouted. "I'm her father she is supposed to do what I ask!" Brad yelled back. "No she doesn't!" Zeke complained. Suddenly Brad gasped his eyes bursting wide as he clutched his heart tightly and fell to the ground.
At no. 30 Rachel had finished preparing breakfast. "Yummy," Luke smiled eating his toast soldiers. "Honey breakfast is ready!" Rachel called down the hall. "Mummy?" Ruby asked her from the table.
"Yes Darling?" Rachel replied walking over.
"Why do you call daddy honey?" her daughter asked innocently, "He's not gooey and sticky and you don't put him in oatmeal."
Rachel starred at her daughter, eyebrows raised, "Why don't you go and get dressed for Jamie's birthday party?" Rachel suggested.
"Okay!" Ruby smiled rushing towards her bedroom.
"Yes.. we need an ambulance at no. 24 Ramsay Street," Zeke said before hanging up the phone. He turned around starring at his distressed wife. "How about I take Pip and Phoebe to Rachel's?" he suggested not really wanting them to see their grandad is such a state. Taylah's face was as white as snow, "Yeh okay.." she muttered.
"It's your birthday today honey," Bridget smiled at her son as she made him a peanut butter sandwich. "Do you remember what you wanted for your birthday?" she asked him. Jamie nodded, "A bike," he told his mum. Just then Declan entered the house with his son's brand new bike which was gleaming brightly from the shiny layer of paint. "YAY!" Jamie cheered excitedly running up to hug his dad.
What is wrong with Brad, will the ambulance make it in time?
Will the birthday party go as planned?
