Revelation …

It had all happened so quickly. In the blink of an eye, I was persuaded to skip class and walk out as if it were an everyday occurrence for kids to leave the school grounds when they pleased. Perhaps for him, that was the case. He appeared comfortable with this routine. But for me, it was not a normal thing to do. And to go where, exactly?

Back at school, in the excitement of the moment, I hadn’t even asked that question, not wanting to risk the opportunity I’d been waiting for; to be with the boy who constantly occupied my thoughts day and night, night and day. But I hesitated then, reluctant to take another step.

Where was he taking me? It was clearly another room in the house but I couldn’t understand why. Was he being genuine or did he have something else in mind?

My head was spinning and my skin prickled anxiously. Then I dared to look into the beautiful face at my side. When he opened that door however, I was certainly not prepared for what greeted us on the other side.

The moon-faced child, wild with excitement at the sight of the older boy standing in the doorway, squealed with delight.

“Ky! You’re home!”

Looking from one to the other, I watched speechlessly as the young boy threw his arms around Ky in an affectionate embrace.

Laughing, Ky gently removed his arms and turned towards me. “Julia, this is my brother, Tyler. Tyler, this is my friend, Julia.”

Stunned with shock, I stood staring, momentarily lost for words, this was almost too much to comprehend.

Then finally, I was able to stammer a response. “Hello, Tyler. Nice to meet you!”

For the second time in about as many minutes, I’d had two of the most bewildering introductions that I think I may have ever experienced and I stood smiling at the young boy as he shook my hand, his friendly manner a reflection of the personality that was quickly bubbling to the surface.

In a tumble of words and a mixture of phrases that I found difficult to follow, he proudly showed me around his room, describing in detail, the collection of toys that cluttered every shelf.

Laughing with amusement, Ky finally managed to interrupt the boy’s excited ramblings to suggest that we all go to the kitchen for something to eat. And following along behind, I shook my head in wonder at the events of the day. It had been full of surprises to say the least, but this particular incident, being whisked away from school to meet the distinctive looking young boy who radiated such an infectious and outgoing enthusiasm for life, was undoubtedly the most unexpected of all.
