A long say/ OPEN

[Rajveer Chopra]

Patches of thin clouds floated lazily on the sky, unable to quite hide the warm smiling sun. It was early in the morning, too early for Veer anyway, but for once he had woken up early and found it difficult to go back to sleep. He hummed to himself as he walked around the park, aimlessly, just like one of those clouds in the sky. He finally stopped by a swing. As a kid he had loved playing on those. He sat down on one of those, watching the sky above, when footsteps caught his attention.

[Shadow Cooper]

Shadow sat his son up on the swing gentally and pulled back the chain which held the swing in place. his attention was on both the little boy sitting and on Collet who was sitting in the sand pit not to far away...His face was in a sort of half smile, his children were of course gorgious to him, both beautiful and playful and wonders in his life..but he felt like he was raising them alone when there mother was in the castle that he wasn't allowed to go near. Sighing he knew he shouln't be upset for the fact she was providing the children with everything meaning money wise, for clothing and food and well there house. But she was denying her children of something more important, a Mother in there life.

Stressed a bit he pulled a cigerate from his lips, he remembered ti would frown and disprove of him smoking near the children but he couldn't help himself at this point. He lit it and gave his childs back a little nudge with his right hand to keep the swing going back and forth, he then stepped back a little to watch the toddlar swinging on his own back and forth happy round and pale face raised and lowered as he swung with only the restrants on the swings length of hm reaching the sky.

There was the horrible smell which Veer recognized as of burning a ciggarete. He looked around and saw a man swinging a child on another swing. The man looked familiar and after a moment of think Veer recognized him. "Hey," he said grinning as he left his swing and walked towards Shadow.

[Shadow Cooper]

"Hey,"
Shadow heard the voice but dind't realise the greeting was directed at himself, as he t\pulled the cigerate from his teeth and gavethe end a bit of a tap letting its burnt end have ash fall to the ground, his eyes then lifted to the stranger standing close by. Shadow right away realise this wasn't a stramger, it was the odd talkative boy from Hogsmed."Hello." he finally rpelied after a delayed amount of time just staring at Veer.

[Rajveer Chopra]

."Hello."

Veer noticed the gap before he had answered. "Don't tell me you don't recognize me," Veer said, "I am Veer Chopra, remember we talked in Hogsmeade? We met outside Morgan's cloth shop. And I suggested you to give up on smoking," he said giving details of their conversation.

[Shadow Cooper]

Don't tell me you don't recognize me," Veer said, "I am Veer Chopra, remember we talked in Hogsmeade? We met outside Morgan's cloth shop. And I suggested you to give up on smoking,"
Shadow sighe through his nose taking the cigerate form his fingers to grip between his peirced lips and let it go so he could give his child a tiny push on the back to keep it rocking back and forth at a good height, then he took it fomr his mouth,"You did suggest it, ut so have many others." he rpelied calmly,

"Look daddy!" he heard the call from Collet over at the sandpuit, he glanced around eer to see she had made a beautiful little sandcastle, he hide his smile."very nice Collet." he replied his voice had hints of proudness in them, he just dind't show it very well infront of others.

Veer looked at the child on the swing and the other one who had created the sand castle. He smiled. "So cute... these are you children right?" he said.

[Shadow Cooper]

"So cute... these are you children right?"
Shadow shrugged,"na i baby sit the neighbours kida all the time." he replied in a low sarcastic voice, he blew smoke out of his mouth without taking the cigerate form his mouth.

[Rajveer Chopra]

,"na i baby sit the neighbours kida all the time."

"Really?" Veer said taking it for serious. "Wow thats great, and I am glad you have finally found a work. I told you didn't I, that some day or other you will find something you can do while also being able to take care of your children and not disturbing your wife's work."

[Shadow Cooper]

"Really?" ,"Wow thats great, and I am glad you have finally found a work. I told you didn't I, that some day or other you will find something you can do while also being able to take care of your children and not disturbing your wife's work."
Shadow sighed,"Veer, have you ever heard of sarcasium before?" he said looking at the silly boy,"do these children look so unlike me you beleived me?"

[Rajveer Chopra]

,"Veer, have you ever heard of sarcasium before?" ,"do these children look so unlike me you beleived me?"

Veer was silent for a second looking at the children and then back at Shadow. "Oh, right, I did not think about it," he admitted, "Cute kids," he added with a smile, "And by the way my idea wasn't too bad right? Think about it."

[Shadow Cooper]

he added with a smile, "And by the way my idea wasn't too bad right? Think about it." [/i]
Shadow stared ta him with a face,"me? take care of children...no." he said shacking his head,"Can bearly take care of myself or these two let alone some strangers child." he said.

[Rajveer Chopra]

,"me? take care of children...no." ,"Can bearly take care of myself or these two let alone some strangers child.

"But you look after your children well, don't you?" Veer said, "Just like that you can try to take care of stranger's children too. You will get a way to earn, your children will get friends to play, and you will be able to keep an eye on them at the same time."

[Shadow Cooper]

But you look after your children well, don't you?" Veer said, "Just like that you can try to take care of stranger's children too. You will get a way to earn, your children will get friends to play, and you will be able to keep an eye on them at the same time."
Shadow shook his head,"Im not very good at looking after them, so i cna't watch other kids." he answered back clamly, he wasn't going to ly he struggled taking care of his children...as much as he lovedthem both the task was just extremely difficult for him.

[Rajveer Chopra]

,"Im not very good at looking after them, so i cna't watch other kids."

"Oh, thats bad," Veer said, "Anyways, don't worry, we will think of something anyway," he added.
