Summary: Owen knows he's loud, but it doesn't usually bother his mum. Too much.
Owen knows he's loud.
He's not noticeably louder than any of his friends, he knows. Not louder than most of the other guys in his year. He knows he's got kind of an annoying voice, but he can't help it.
His mum thinks he should, though.
"Do you have to be so nasal?" she asks. And, "I thought you were too old for your voice to keep cracking like that."
It doesn't bother her too much, though. Most days.
But sometimes—when she starts—he can tell by her voice he'd best keep quiet as a mouse. Just in case.
