Alec is showing off yet again. I am so fed up of listening to him endlessly going on about his
brand new bike. All of the other kids are so amazed by him. It’s so annoying! I like hearing
about new toys and hobbies but it’s almost every day with Alec. He always has something to
boast about. I’m starting to dislike him.
It’s funny because he’s always telling us about how much money his family has got, but we
never see any of these amazing new toys and gadgets. He’s so selfish that he doesn’t show
anyone and let them try them out yet they all love him! They treat him like he’s the coolest kid
in school. Hardly! Surprisingly, he’s finally stopped gloating and is leaving with his sister. It
looks like everyone is heading home. Alec lives just around the corner from me so I might go
and have a peek at this bike for myself…
