Happy thoughts Happy thoughts Happy thoughts, was all Evan could say to himself. His parents did not forget him. They did not mean to drive off. They'll be right back. Right?
Except, Evan was not stupid. He knows what abandonment was from all the nature videos he watched. He knows that his parents don't really want him, they want Maddie. Maddie! He can call Maddie!
But she was with her boyfriend. So she didn't want Evan, she wanted Mr.Meanie-fake-head. What was his name again? Doug.
