>Born inn 1989
>20 in 2009
>Niece was 10
>Had just come home from a pretty rough day at work
>Sister calls me
>"Anon, Marley is stuck at the after school club and it closes at 6pm. I'm stuck in the emergency room with Reece, can you go and get her?"
>Normally I'd say "no fuck off" but mom and dad are in Scotland
>"Ok."
>"You're a lifesaver! I'll call them now, send me your cars plate and a picture of you so I can forward it to them"
>Done
>Go and pick up Marley
>I usually never see this kid, far too busy with work and my own shit
>As soon as she sees me, the excitement just washes over her and she beams this big goofy smile
>"UNCLE ANON! WHY ARE YOU HERE?"
>Can't tell her "Hey your dad fell off a ladder and he's all jacked up, your moms with him"
>Think fast
>"I asked your mom if I can pick you up today so we can have fun, we're going to the huge arcade!"
>"WOW! COOL!"
>Take her to the arcade
>Mario Kart, House of the Dead, a bike GP game, shitload of other games, also went for a round of bowling and won her a stupidly big cuddly bear completely by accident because I wanted to show off how good I was at the whackamole and got the special prize
>Took her back to my place and asked her what she wanted for dinner
>"Uhm... OH! CAN I HAVE A BURGER!?"
>Was planning on using that beef mince for spaghetti later in the week, but whatever
>Make her a cheese burger, handcut seasoned fries, little side salad, finished around 8pm
>Little bowl of chocolate and hazelnut gelato for dessert
>"WOW I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD COOK! ITS SO NICE!"
>Sister texts me. "Waiting for XRay. We're gonna be here all night"
>Send her a bunch of pics of Marley at the arcade and another of her eating
>"Woah look at you putting in the effort! You going for uncle of the year? haha! xxx"
>It's now 9pm, meaning her bedtime
>Grab a T-shirt
>Tell her to go take a shower and give me her uniform so I can throw it in the washer, get ready for bed myself
>After she's out of the shower
