through the eyes of a child page 11

through the eyes of a child page 11 by ric gustafson


" She loved jogging and walking along this trail" Jessica said as she, Charles and Katie walked along the wooded trail.
" Why is the park so popular?".
" Students use this trail all the time especially during the summer when school is out".
" Would Kelly just use this trail?" Katie asked quietly as they kept walking and students were rollerblading around them.
" Yes, this is the only trail around this park".
About half way around the trail, the three walked up to an open area. They sat down on a park bench that faced the street.
" Is this the only open area in the park?".
" Yes, Kelly liked to stop at this park bench to rest".
They got up to resume their walk.
" Jessica, do you know of anybody who would harm our baby?" Katie asked as tears formed in her tired eyes.
" Mr and Mrs Brown, honestly I can't think of anybody who would want to harm Kelly".
Charles and Katie smiled at each other.
As they resumed their walk, Charles noticed a small business card that was showing underneath the trash can. He picked it up and glanced at it. It simply said ' Big Springs Cabins'. Charles shrugged and put the card in his back pant pocket.




Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric
