Old School Week Harbinger

[Elio Boneheart]

It wasn't by accident that Elio stepped onto the playground by himself. His mother had been called into work and he'd managed to slip by his carer unnoticed. She was a very bad carer. The four year old raced to the playground in the middle of the park and started to entertain himself.​

Iggy always made the most of exploring the outdoors when he could. He saw a boy around his own age, and Iggy stopped to stare at him.

Elio liked the playground, especially when his mum was around, but she wasn't here, so he had to worry about himself. He didn't see the boy who was staring at him as he continued to play.​

Iggy carries on staring, thumb absentmindedly headed for his mouth. “What you doing..?” He mumbled eventually, hoping the boy heard.

"Huh," Elio turned around to see another boy who looked to be sucking his thumb. "Playing," he said, just about summing up everything the other boy needed to know.
