The morning battle began, June wasn’t in the mood, she knocked on her teenage son’s bedroom door to get him up for school then opened the door and took in the mess of stuff scattered around in what little light could enter the room, it was a typical young man’s cave and June felt nauseated by a rising smell of sweat.
‘I’m sick, I’m not going into day and you can’t make me, so there!’ he shouted back from underneath the bedding.
‘Fine,’ answered June, ‘stay like a cocooned bug then and only come out when you have grown up.’
