RICKY'S POV:
"Mr and Mrs. Braxton, come on through," Aaron's teacher proclaimed "sorry to keep you waiting."
"It's fine," I assured her as Brax and I took a seat in front of her desk "so, how's our boy doing?"
"Brilliantly!" she informed us "Here's a copy of his school report for you to take a look at. His English and Maths are great and he loves P.E. We're very happy with him."
"Isn't that great?" I questioned as Brax read over my shoulder
"Yeah." he replied, smiling at me warmly
BRAX'S POV:
Ricky and I arrived home an hour or so later, having stopped off at the shopping centre to pick Aaron something up for his good school report. Making our way into the house, Aaron looked up from where he was sat on the sofa watching TV…
"Hi, Mummy, hi Daddy." he greeted us
"Hi." we mirrored in unison
"We got you something…" Ricky informed him
"What?" he questioned
"Why don't you take this from Daddy and have a look?" Ricky suggested, handing him the bag I was holding
"Thanks!" he proclaimed as he pulled out the train set Ricky and I had picked out at the toy store on the way home "can I go and play with it before tea?"
Ricky nodded her head, signalling yes, both of us chuckling as he hurried through to his bedroom…
"School report went well?" Heath asked as we walked into the kitchen
"Yeah, he's doing really well," I informed him as I grabbed Ricky and I a beer "are you and B staying for dinner?"
"Think so," he replied "you'll have to ask B."
"Where is she?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him
"Outside," he informed me "school business."
RICKY'S POV:
Bianca walked back into the house five minutes later… "Are you staying for dinner?"
"We can do?" she suggested, raising an eyebrow at Heath
"Looks like we're staying," Heath informed us "shall I fire up the barbie?"
I nodded my head, signalling yes, Brax standing up too… "Take Case with you, it'll get him out of his room."
"Case!" Brax proclaimed as he and Heath made their way out into the garden
"So how did the school report go then?" Bianca asked as she sat down opposite me
"He's doing great, B," I informed her, smiling at her warmly "and his work is amazing too. Hang on; shouldn't you be picking up your children?"
"Darcy's picking Harley up after choir practice, and then we're meeting at the playgroup to pick up Megan," she explained "so I need to leave in a few minutes."
I nodded my head in understanding… "Is Megan still being picky about her food?"
"Yes," she sighed "it's so frustrating. Could you just mush up some fruit for her?"
"Course." I replied, smiling at her warmly
So Aaron's doing well at school – how will Caitilyn's party go?
