Pablo’s Birthday<br />
(pablos födelsedag)<br />
by Babak Najafi<br />
It's Pablo's tenth birthday. He lives with his mom, stepfather<br />
and granddad. Pablo and his friends are out harassing<br />
the Finn and other neighbours. "My dad's coming<br />
tomorrow", he tells his friend Inas. Pablo's big wish is for<br />
his real father to show up with a bicycle for his birthday.<br />
But Pablo's real father has been gone for many years and<br />
doesn't turn up. All the presents Dad sent him on previous<br />
birthdays take on a new meaning when Mom reveals her<br />
long-kept secret.<br />
