A Memorable Surprise

by Ray Bands, San Francisco

The first time I got a hover-board, I asked my God-mom, right? I just asked just because like I really didn’t want her to get it. You dig what I’m saying? But peep this: every Christmas she gets me one thing. No matter whatever it is, she will get me it. So, I kind of knew she would get me it if I begged. I bet I wasn’t going to do all that. 

So, it was this one Christmas and I kind of knew she got it, so I woke up and ran to the tree. It wasn’t there, so I’m thinking in my head, what the heck? She was supposed to get me a damn hover-board, but I didn’t say nothing. But, when I came back to my home, it was sitting on my bed. 

I was like let’s go! I really love this lady, I swear to God. But I will never forget that moment.
