Sandcastles

At school, we play Kiss Chase.

When we were in the little playground we had toys to play with but here in the big playground we just have each other.

I usually chase Amber and Laura, who slow down when I chase them, and speed up when Callum runs after them, but he always catches up, eventually.

Emily shakes her head at Callum and says "Time out" when he runs toward her.

Emily and I have agreed not to kiss.

"Because best friends don't kiss," says Emily.

I don't mind not kissing Emily.

I don't tell Emily that when no one else can see, behind the big tree, I kiss Callum and Jamal and Toby.
