when mom and dad decided
they no longer wanted our two turtles anymore. I remember the day when dad brought them to school for show and tell day, I was filled with joy. but one day they didn’t want them anymore. we drove to Petco, dad casually led us back to the aquarium section, lifted the lid on the turtle tank and put them back.
