Today at Takashimaya we swung by the play area and hark! they had added a new toy for the little tots to play with. Only there was a little boy sitting on it, not moving a muscle or being the least bit playful but clearly staking his claim. So Henri did what he does best and just started pushing it around with the boy still on it having a grand time. Most children might find this fun but this little boy was clearly threatened and instead of lashing out toddler style he sat there in silent misery, with the most tortured expression on his face. Then other children crowded around the new toy to check it out. The boy continued to sit in his quiet dismayed state with silent tears going down his face while his father and I tried to contain a couple giggles... Eventually the poor boy broke and let out one tiny wail and his father rescued him - poor tortured thing.
