There’s a thud thud thud of his heart
just barely hiding a tick tick tick
coming from somewhere close around him
Tick tick tick
Thud thud thud
Scraggly shoes with dirty laces
scuff around the garbage
searching
A loud THUNK
Head turns with a start
black hair ruffles in the slight breeze
a smell of over-ripened bananas
Thud. Skip. Thud.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
The loud cries are distant
and the boy lets out a deep breath
but the ticking has stopped
He closes his eyes
to follow the sound of a memory
but finds a sharp twisting around his heart
A footstep back
squish
A grimace.
Light glints from the corner
Hesitation lingers in the air
Feet move forward
like a puppet
A CRUNCH on the gravel
A manic joy
A terrible happiness
Home beckons
Thudthudthudthud
His racing heart
His trembling hands
A golden stopwatch
They are home
A slithering sound swells around them
and the boy bends down
to pick up the watch
It sizzles in his hand
and red eyes reflect
in the 10:41 AM
