Sim-May 2012 - The Boathouse
Khalid was confused. His dad had told him he had a birthday gift for him and they had travelled out to the old boathouse. He had known it to be a dodgy bumbleleaf den and even the bravest, most stupid teenagers in Enekjaer gave it a wide berth.
"Dad, why are we here? You scoring me some bumbleleaf for my birthday wasn't on my birthday bingo." Khalid smirked.
"Very funny. The...squatters who lived her moved on and this place happened to come on the market for next to nothing. I know you want to move out, so....your brothers and I...well Zaid fixed it up for you. It's not perfect, but it's a start."
Khalid hugged his dad, which temporarily stunned both of them; neither really had that kind of relationship, but he didn't know how to put into words how grateful he was. This was the fresh start he needed as an adult.
