Excerpt
“OKAY YOU three, get together,” a woman with a camera says to her son and two of his friends. She brushes a stray strand of hair out of her face.
“Ugh, come on, Mom,” moans Rhys.
She gives him the “mom look” and he quickly puts
his graduation cap on his shaggy brown hair.
“I really wish you would have gotten your hair
cut,” Rhys’ dad says, standing behind his wife. He holds the graduation program
up to block the sun from his eyes.
“Ooh look, it’s the mascot!” says his mom, running
across the quadrangle to catch the giant squirrel, which is wearing a
graduation gown of its own. Well, it’s more of a waddle than a run. She’s
having difficulty running in a dress and high heels.

“This is so embarrassing,” Rhys says, and he
follows his mom with his two friends.
At six foot one, Joey is about the same height as
Rhys, but his blond hair is spikier and shorter. “Yeah, it is,” he says. “You
should be ashamed.”
“My family is probably looking for me, you know?”
Erick, the shortest member of the group, says. He’s a pale guy who has a
constant five o’clock shadow no matter how recently he’s shaved.
“Okay, guys, hurry,” says Rhys’ mom. She has the
mascot cornered between a large bell and a wall of shrubs. Rhys and Joey get on
either side of the squirrel and Erick stands in front of it. “You look like a
vampire, Erick,” she says, looking at the image on the camera.
“Sorry?”
“It’s just your white skin against the black robe,”
she says, mostly to herself as she gets the picture perfect. “Okay, thanks!”
she says to the squirrel once the picture has been taken. “I’m just saying that
you probably should have gotten a base tan before moving to California,” she
continues to Erick as she reviews the several dozen pictures she’s taken so far
today. “You’re going to burn like a lobster once you get out
there.”
