Austin turned the corner onto his street, his eyes scanning the familiar houses , his own was the third one from the left, with it's neatly manicured lawn and cheerful yellow doorÂ
As Austin walked into his house,he was greeted by the familiar sight of his father Ethan on the couch staring at the TVÂ
Ethan looked up as Austin entered,a hint of smile on his face "hey kiddo how was your day
