The apartment door burst open with such force that it rebounded from the wall before slamming shut, making Ryo wince, but as he turned to tell Bikky off, the boy came skidded into the kitchen, looking so excited that the rebuke died on his lips.

 
“Ryo! You’ll never guess what happened today at school!”
 

“I gather it was something good.” Despite the potential damage that had just been done to the door, the wall, or both, Ryo couldn’t keep from smiling. Bikky was thirteen now, all arms and legs, and restless energy fuelled by an insatiable appetite. He looked like he might explode from sheer excitement. “Well, aren’t you going to tell me?”
 

“We had a spelling bee in English, and some of the words were really hard, but out of the whole class I was the only kid who got every single one correct!”
 

Ryo couldn’t blame Bikky for being so elated. When he’d taken the boy in three years ago Bikky’s spelling had been abysmal; he’d come a long way since then.
 

“Congratulations, Biks! That’s an achievement to be proud of!”
 

“Thanks!” Bikky was grinning from ear to ear. “Um, sorry about the door.”
 

“You’re forgiven. This time.”
