I know I am only supposed to go shrimping when I am twelve, but I have to go now! PLEASE!
It's to dangerous. Remember, I lost a finger shrimping!
NO! They didn't make an exception for me!
Should we let her? It doesn't seem fair.
As my younger sister, Avery, screamed her lungs out, I zoned out and thought about how happy I am to be shrimping for the first time, and to be alone with my parents without Avery hogging all of the attention.
Even though Avery's younger than me, she is taller.
How was shrimping? Well? ELIZA ANSWER ME!
It was.....fine.
Come help me carry these buckets, girls.
When we got back, Avery pestered me for ages, trying to find out how it was like shrimping. Since Mum was near, I told it was okay, after a long hesitation. Avery asked me for more and more details, until I just decided to ignore her, causing her to storm off angrily. I couldn't tell her the real reason, not with mum nearby. When we were younger, we wanted to be a world class shrimping team, Avery and I. But now, after seeing the bycatch, and that poor hurt turtle, as well as all the dead fish my parents tossed back in the sea, I'm not so sure anymore.
After that, Avery and me didn't speak to each other, even when our friends, Grace and Huy, came over to our house. Our house is on stilts, to raise it off the ground when there's a flood, just like every other house in Coteville. Last year our house got swept away, so now it's raised even higher, higher than everyone else's.
I guess you're never going to find out about the loup-garou footprints me and Avery found.
Fine, sorry Avery, let's sneak out tonight to find them. Meet us on the docks guys, at midnight.
