Our boys were having a blast at the game center--really, just a once a year thing; a reward for letting daddy and mommy go out ballooning 12 days in a row non-stop; and because Grandpa and Grandma came. This was a rare occasion that was enjoyed to the full.
Kenji and Deryk were at it for like 30 minutes, putting those coins in by the dozens, maybe even hundreds. They had one remaining coin each, and they both put them in at the same time. All of us watched the drama as they neared the bottom, hoping they would win us a fortune. But with one-out-of-like-a-hundred-thousand chance, both of their coins met and got stuck just inches from the bottom. We couldn't believe it; such coincidence.
Well, I know I'm being a little dramatic. It's not like we would have won a fortune or something, maybe just some more game coins or something. But still, it was very dramatic at the time. And you should have seen their faces. Every time they got a winning, they grabbed those garnered coins with such joy and enthusiam as if they had won a million dollars or something. So when their last coins got stuck like that, you can imagine that it must have been pretty dramatic for them.
