Stealing food.
Granite became defensive when the man insinuated that he was doing a bad thing. The boy stopped chewing but clutched the carcass as his gaze became wall-eyed. Would this man decide to punish him after all? Granite was used to snatching and thieving precious things to hide them from his greedy siblings. It was always someone else who stole from him.
Yet, he listened to an offer. Uncertainty rattled his bones. Wouldn’t mom and dad find him soon? Didn’t he need to get home?
But which direction was home exactly?
Granite felt he could continue his lie a little longer… at least until his parents showed up. Plus, free food sounded awesome.
“O-okay…” the child agreed after thinking it over. "I'll go with you."
