Fub 3

Fub sat on a cushion on a cloud.

Fub didn’t know if he was happy.

Sometimes Fub saw happy and felt sad.

Sometimes Fub drifted towards happy, bounced off, turned around and drifted away.

Some of the happy rubbed off on Fub... for a little while.

Fub didn’t understand happy.

Fub saw Gwill.

Gwill saw Fub.

“How are you?,” said Gwill.

Fub coughed.

“Do you want to play?,” said Gwill.

Fub didn’t want to play; but Fub didn’t want Gwill to go.

Fub could see Gwill felt awkward.

Fub didn’t want Gwill to feel awkward... but Fub started to tingle... and ache.

“Would you...?,” started Fub.

“Would I what?,” said Gwill.

“Nothing,” said Fub, who started to drift away.

“I’ve got to go now,” said Gwill.

“Okay,” said Fub.
