Lunchtime

"I'm starving. Is it lunchtime yet?" the child asked.
It was barely 10am, just an hour since breakfast.
"It's two hours until lunchtime."
The child pulled a sulky face.
"Go in the kitchen and get a couple of biscuits to keep you going."
The child danced into the kitchen and returned with five packets of digestives.
"What are you doing?"
"Having some biscuits."
"Do you know how many a couple is?"
"Yes, but I don't care."
The child tilted his head back, mouth open ike a black hole, and inserted each packet of biscuits, wrappers and all.
