Jason Everot

Meeting him

Jessica was walking down towards the city bus. This must have been the thousandth time in her life, but this time was special. She got on the bus, paid the toll, and right through the window she saw The Tree. Just past the tree she saw a boy. A small boy, looking to be about 7 or 8 years old, all alone in the middle of the field. She stepped off the bus. The driver handed her the money. She refused. "Keep it",she said. She walked over to the boy sitting by the tree roots. "Why are you sitting here alone?" The boy looked at her but did not answer. He had soft green eyes, blackish/brownish hair, and light skin. He seemed to be scared. She asked him again, " Why are you alone?" Still, the boy did not answer, but tears welled up in his eyes. She hugged him. Then she stood up and asked him to follow her. Luckily, the bus was still waiting for other passengers, so Jessica stepped on with the boy right behind her. "Hey Pete, headin' home. This is..." " Jason",said the boy.
