With a high possibility he was his long lost father, the boy felt excited to let his classmates know. It would be alright to take one of the photos, right?
His godfather Ace would be coming very soon, so he took the things back to the carton box as fast as he could. He placed them inside except for one of the photographs, and a heart-shaped golden locket necklace where he also found his parents' faces.
Hearing the sound of the front door outside and Ace calling his name, Ezekiel hurriedly wore the locket necklace and put the photograph in his pocket. He then pushed the box to the corner of the room, and dashed out of the room.
"Oh, there you are. Have you taken a bath?" Ace asked, patting the boy's head.
Ezekiel shook his head.
"Take a bath, then. I'll take you to Chickie's Restaurant later for breakfast, then we'll head to school."
