Gideon Timline: Age 11, 1986
Gideon could see it, could see the drip drip of the tap in the bathroom as he pressed more against the wall trying to hide from the world, not liking the feeling of being here, of being without people he knew. He had already been made fun off for having odd coloured eyes, and for his name and his last name and he knew he was tiny, and he wasn't that big and he was shy, but he didn't think it was a good reason and had tried to tell them that. And the swelling in his eye wasn't getting any better as the first drip drip of a tear fell onto his cheek and he dropped his head into his hands, wanting to go home.
