DERELICT
'I hate you!' Sophie
punched her sister.
'That's it! You're
grounded,' said her mother. 'No fairground visit.'
Sophie raged and fled
to the scrapyard. She spotted a derelict car. The driver's door
handle clicked open. She climbed in. The interior smelt of urine.
Sophie wrinkled her nose.
Hidden under
newspapers, Manny lay asleep on the back seat.
Sophie clutched the
steering wheel. ‘Brm brm.’
Manny woke.
A kid was in his car?
Something stirred in Manny.
Sophie bounced,
pretending to drive. Who needed stupid fairground cars anyway?
Manny slowly sat up.
Filled with sparkling
daydreams, Sophie accelerated into the unknown.
