"Once when I was very young, on a school trip, I slipped in by accident. Didn't even get the form signed. Not sure how it happened but nevertheless, I got to watch something. It was awful but I do love the cinema. From all I can remember of it. Perhaps we could go some time... just nothing spooky, okay?"

He wasn't really a fan of horror. Even in books, it got too much.

"I would love to see a cinema, watch a proper movie. I would love to see more live music and to go places. I always wanted to try out Japanese food and travel. There's much I want to do." So much more than his parents wanted from life. He didn't think the center of the world was some old town church.
