Kiss and tell
Turning the colorful thing in my hand, I saw that it was a tiny robot.
“Look, it is not broken. Here it is, little guy. I am sorry!” I stretched my arm towards the - what seemed to be a three or four years old person, ignoring the few car whistles, complaining that we were blocking their way to the parking.
The boy stopped crying when the robot was in its hands again. I lifted my black irises towards his mother, who was wiping the wet cheeks of her child, and I stood up to face her. The apology was all over me, but when I opened my mouth to speak, she cut me off, raising her hand in the air between us.
