Fox, Boy with Red Hair

Fox, a little boy with red hair, was not chosen to go on a trip to the Redcliff Park. Completely filled with indignation, Fox stropped unnoticed to the corner of the school playground, where nobody played with him or he would threaten to punch them. Here Fox could be on his own and be angry by himself.
For five minutes Fox peevishly stropped about. It isn’t fair, everyone
should go to Redcliff Park, he thought. Fox started to get tired, he thought of going on an adventure. The playground was always full of adventures, but they were adventures that Fox had played so many times.
Fox leant against the wall off the playground and looked up. The wall
wasn’t the tallest one he had ever seen, and Fox really loved climbing. He looked round the school playground to see if anyone could spot him. There weren’t that many children in the playground because the chosen ones went to Redcliff; this could be the right moment. With his sturdy shoes Fox jumped onto the short wall and climbed up. At the top he recognized the road as the one his mum always walked him home so getting lost wouldn't be easy. All Fox now needed to do was jump.



The road home was very quiet only the fun games and adventures Fox’s friends were playing in the playground could be heard. Suddenly Fox felt he would be happier to play with his friends again. No! This was his chance, he’ll know when to come back as soon as he heard the bell. He could even go to Redcliff park which was very far away. Fox knew he shouldn’t walk so far while being alone, not that he really wanted to. Forlornly Fox leant back against the wall he had just climbed over and thought of what to do next. Though he didn’t completely know, Fox felt lamented being on the home road without either his mum or his dad, or even his friends for that matter. Fox turned around to face the wall again, it looked more intimidating than before, but Fox had to get back now otherwise he was going to be late. Fox climbed the tricky wall back up, to see his friends still playing their adventures.

Back in the school playground, Fox wasn’t able to join anyone in any of their games as the bell started to ring. Everyone lined up and slowly made their way inside in the school manner.
Inside the classroom it was story time which was always a serene session for Fox. 
He enjoyed stories because most of them were filled with adventures, and being in the classroom made it feel safe. Fox felt happy again.
