Nobody’s Son: Part 1 of 3: All Alex ever wanted was a family of his own. Cathy Glass
and Adrian were just coming out of the living room to take another of Alex’s bags of toys through to play with.
‘Before you do that let’s put your bike away,’ I suggested. ‘It’s a lovely bike – you are lucky.’
‘Father Christmas bought it for me,’ Alex said with a small smile.
Adrian wanted to come and help put the bike in the shed, and then of course Paula, not wanting to be left out, arrived in the hall and said she did too. We all put on our coats and shoes and Alex carefully wheeled his bike down the hall, through the kitchen, and then Adrian helped him out with it through the back door. Our garden is long and narrow, with a patio at the top and then mainly grass to the shed at the very bottom. ‘Shall I ride my bike to the shed?’ Alex asked, clearly wanting to.
‘Yes.’
He carefully mounted the bike and then rode confidently to the bottom of the garden, where he dismounted. We caught up. ‘If the weather is good next weekend we could take the bikes to the park,’ I suggested.
‘Yes!’ Adrian said, and Alex nodded enthusiastically.
I unlocked the shed door and Adrian helped Alex in with his bike and rested it carefully next to his and Paula’s. There were other garden toys here too, stored for winter.
