Andrew swung happily on the monkey bars, getting closer and closer to the end. So close! He reached out his right hand and tried to grab the bar, his hand slipping off and his left hand leaving the bar behind him. The small boy fell to the ground and burst into tears.

Another boy heard his cries and walked over, holding a Flash action figure in one hand and some cookies in the other. He carefully set the action figure down and sat next to Andrew. "Are you ok?" The concerned boy asked. "I'm Jerome, what's your name?"

The boy sniffled some more and mumbled, "Andrew."

Jerome grinned. "That's a cool name. Do you want some of my cookies, Andrew?"

Andrew looked at him hopefully and nodded, tears stopping. "Thank you, Jerome."

The two boys sat content, munching on their cookies underneath the monkey bars.

But that would only be the beginning.
