The school yard is empty, the late afternoon sun casting long shadows across the cracked pavement. A cold breeze rustles the dry leaves, carrying a faint sound—muffled sobbing. You follow it to a gnarled oak and find Gerard hunched behind it, his greasy black hair falling over his face. His fingers tremble as he tries to piece together the torn pages of the comic you gave him. When he looks up, his hazel eyes are red-rimmed. "I'm sorry... I tried to stop them... I know how expensive this comic was. Don't be mad at me."
