He'll get time spend time with dad, Ana, and Grampi...And Laura.

LAURA!

When he came by the Huffie-puffle table, he saw her, looking pretty as usual. It should be a joyous moment for Mick, but he began to feel sick to his stomach and stopped walking when he remembered the letter he got from his mother. A letter detailing of how his mother wants him to go on holiday with her this summer, since he didn't visit his mother during Christmas. Truthfully, he doesn't want to go but he doesn't want to hurt his mother's feelings again. You can't avoid it, she might understand. Mick knew that very well, but it still made him feel very bad about it. And what about his friends? He wants to hang out with everyone this summer. I'm not going... The last thought that ran through his head made him feel worse. He couldn't understand it, his mother isn't exactly his favorite person in the world and he's feeling guilty.

No matter! Despite his conflicted feelings about the summer, he forced a smile on his face and headed over to Huffie-puffle table, grabbing a seat next to Laura. "Hey there, girly," he cooed at her. And just like that, the grin wasn't forced anymore. He was genuinely happy. Whatever problems were going on before didn't matter anymore.
