It was January 1988 and Mum had taken up a Telemarketers job in Yabbie Creek Kierain is unpacking his Vinyl records in his room as mum leaves for work “If any of these are scratched I’ll ringbark that mover!” Kierain thought out loud as he pulled out his Living End albums. Kierain heads to school in his electric scooter as Pippa Fletcher drops her kids off. “I wonder what it’s like not being able to walk.” Carly Morris thought as she noticed Kierain Pippa becomes very stern with her children “ I forbid you to ask him that!” She warned. “But Pippa.” Carly protested “Don’t you dare!” Pippa warned Pippa goes over to Kierain. “I’m Pippa Fletcher but you can call me Pippa.” She said “Most people call me a retard but you can call me Kierain” Kierain replied. Later after school Kierain is asleep on the couch when 14 year old Lynn Davenport knocks on the door. “What the?” Kierain said with a fright. Kierain answers the door “Pippa wanted to know if you wanted to come over for dinner.” Lynn informed him. “Sure why not.” Kierain replied. “Great we eat at 7.” Lynn told him. Kierain closes the door and goes to his room a song called “One Said To The Other” by The Living End plays as he gets changed into casual clothes.

Sally screams and runs out of the room “Err sorry.” Kierain said “ It’s alright.” Pippa smiled. After dinner Pippa and Kierain are talking “I’m also in a band called “Ruptured Appendix.” Kierain told her Pippa bursts out laughing. “Where’d you come up with a name like that?” she smiled. “ All Saints.” Kierain answered. Kierain is leaving The Fletcher’s when Pippa taps his shoulder “Don’t be a stranger you’re welcome anytime.” She smiled. “ Okay.” Kierain said. The next day Kierain is at home playing his records and using the broom like a guitar when Ailsa Hogan comes in with Mum’s groceries “Oh my god!” Kierain said as he saw Ailsa out of the corner of his eye. “Whoa love I’m not robbing you I’m dropping of you’re mum’s groceries.” Ailsa explained. “Oh.” Kierain said rather embarrassed. “ I did knock I don’t think you could hear me.” Ailsa laughed noticing the broom. “oh err sorry.” Kierain said looking more embarrassed. Later Kierain is cleaning his room when Lance Smart and Martin Dibble stare at him through the window. “Hey Lance check out the poser!” Martin laughed. “Yeah what a dork eh?” Lance replied. Kierain holds up a sign saying “ Clear off do-do heads!” As he notices them. “ Hey he’s having a go at us!” Lance said “Stuck up nerd I’ll fix him!” Martin replied. Martin goes to the front door knocks on it then runs away. “Gee I hate that when people knock on the door then run away!” Kierain said rather frustrated as he closed the door.
