- I waited for the show to finish while the shopkeeper called the police.
- The police took their time coming to the scene
- They went back and forth, working up a cool breeze.
- Instead, Mom raised her voice for me, turning the police station into a madhouse, with the clamoring of a parent who'd lost his child and a parent who'd found hers.
- From then on, Mom's fears became a reality one after another.
- She glanced at me, clucking her tongue. "You see your friend fall and don't even ask if she's okay? ..."
- The other kids sensed that something was happening and gathered around me, their whispers prickling my ears.
- That was when Granny came in to save me appearing out of nowhere like Wonder Woman, sweeping me up into her arms.
- "... Who do you think you are to blame my boy?"
- "Granny, why do people call me weird?" Her lips loosened "Maybe it's because you're speical. Peope just can't stand it when something is different, eigoo, my adorable little monster."
