Under Mommy's shadow...

“Agnes, don’t run. Come, hold my hands”, Ashley told to her six years old daughter.

But Agnes was not ready to listen.  She was enjoying the theme park; a world free from the sounds of honks...  bustling vehicles... busy people.

She was giggling as Ashley chased her.

Then, she stood frozen with a death-stuck face.
Ashley found silent tears kissing her girl’s cheeks. She pondered for reasons. A giant insect model grabbed her attention.

Ashley walked towards the insect model and hit it.

Agnes smiled and kissed her mother. Then wiping the tears she started walking holding her mother’s hand.

  4. Quick thinking on Mom's part. Trying to explain probably wouldn't have worked.
