PLAYGROUND
A leather leash extended from Caroline Clarke’s hand to her little boy. Her
narrowed eyes rested on her son Donnie, who sat a short distance in front of
her, sluggishly swaying on a swing. His smooth, pale face was flat, absent of
any discernable emotion.
Caroline cupped her free hand, protecting her cigarette from the
raindrops. The warmth rising to her fingers was welcome on the
uncharacteristically chilly evening. She snuck a quick but deep drag and did
her best to keep the tobacco dry.
Rock Stanley watched them from the entrance of the park. The thick
wrinkles stretching over his gigantic head added a puzzled glare to his
grizzled appearance. The droplets fell at a rate that would’ve sent any
sensible parent heading for their car. Yet, there, with her tiny boy, Caroline
remained.
In a way, Rock felt a measure of relief at the sight. While he was looking
for a parent with at least two children, securing another participant would be
better than none. He was glad he’d decided to check the playgrounds on such
a dreary afternoon. Surprisingly, the improbable gamble had the potential to
payoff.
Rock clenched a brochure in his big hand that read: ‘HELPING
HEARTS.’ It displayed various information about the charity that helped
underprivileged children gain access to modern playground equipment. It
also had an area with cut lines that surrounded a single ticket for family entry
embedded on the final page.
Not wanting it to get soaked, he slipped the informational material back
into his pocket. He’d always hated approaching people. His towering height
and bulky frame always seemed to intimidate them. Additionally, his social
ineptitude was a hurdle. Rock had a lack of experience that no amount of
practice could make up for. Despite his many faults, the motivation that
awaited him back home turned him into a miracle-maker at times. Hopefully,
he could come through again as he had before. But there was something else
that was still on his mind besides securing a reservation.
