I remember when I was on my red shiny scooter, going up the street, up the hill. Down the hill, a tiny gas station with a ancient, withered old lady for a clerk that gave me free popcorn because I was such a 'cute little boy'. I pushed my scooter up the steep hill, panting. That was the first time that I saw my daycare. It was a light-grey stone tower with a brightly colored, cracked sign that said "H ppy Da s". My mother had been looking for a day-care that fit with her budget, and this one was "Too Good to Be True". We puttered up the road in our little red pickup truck up the gravel driveway. There were glass doors. I was afraid to go in, naturally. This was my first daycare. My mother had already signed me up, so I walked in by myself, through the double glass doors and into the lobby. The old lady looked at me, with a smile that didn't reach her already crinkled old eyes. She led me down the multicolored hallway into a door at the end that led into a circular room. There was a black carpet with a red star in a red circle designed onto it. I thought the design was pretty cool. There were four other children in the room, looking as timid and shy as myself. The tall man gave us red crayons and paper and told us to draw that picture as many times as we could before naptime. I could proudly say that I drew it twenty-seven times before the little bell on his desk rang. He brought out pillows that were a dark, rich red. He put a pillow on each point of the star. He clapped his hands to get our attention. "Let's all have some juice before naptime, huh?" He handed out paper cups to us, with a dark red juice that matched the pillows. We drank it all, and it was very good. It tasted like strawberry punch. He showed us our pillows and we laid down. I was starting to feel so tired. So tired. You know, I wasn't tired before the juice. But I was so tired. I went to sleep.
