They walked out of the pastry shop. Both prefering to take a stroll while eating. "We need to explore this town as much as we can before school starts" sherwin's mom said. Sherwin hummed as took another bite from his croissant.
"By explore you mean the shopping districts?" He asked smiling at his mother knowing that's what she really meant. His mother only ruffled his hair and smiled "You know, you're mother too much" she said.
They continued to walk until they reached what seems to be the town's park. "Wow!" Sherwin said in awe as he took in the sight. Trees, flower, perfectly designed and pleasing to the eyes. "I should never leave my camera behind ever again" he noted him.
They strolled around the park eyeing the sight but eventually got seated down to one benches around the park. Sherwin finished his croissant and was now sipping his shake. His mom however already finished her's.
Sherwin was drinking his shake and looking at passersby. He then notices a familiar boy in his line of sight. "Dylan?" He thought as the said boy neared them. Waving at them.
