章 26: Runaway Boy

Joshy was in a hurry to get away from the vicinity of his school. He made sure that no one else saw him exiting the school premises. He ran in a hurry, as far as his legs could take him. He didn't look back, just straight ahead.

Soon, he reached a small coffee shop. He was panting, almost breathless, from the amount of running he had just done. In fact, it felt like his lungs would burst from being out of breath. 

After a few minutes, his breathing returned to normal. Joshy looked around him, to check if he was being followed. He nodded to himself in satisfaction. Aaron must have been checking every room in his school by now. Joshy felt a little guilty for running away. He knew Aaron will definitely be in trouble for this. But he was really still upset about his Dad's lack of attention. He's a kid, so he had to be centered on his own needs somehow.
