‘We’ll go over this one more time’, the officer sighed. His partner in the back looking on with an encouraging but stern smile towards the boy. ‘You were biking around the old dump, doing stunts and I quote “sick-bike tricks” with your brothers, and only noticed the fire when it was already spreading throughout the entire area?’ ‘Yes.’ The officer frowned, the creaks in his forehead formed funny little waves. ‘And before that, you were biking around the actual skatepark, which is on the other side of town?’ The young boy bit his lower lip....

Weekly Contest #84

content warning: language Two young men stopped at the end of a T intersection.

One of them had blue eyes, short hair and an oval shaped face. The other, a Bob-cut hairstyle which always covered a piece of his line of sight.
