EDMUND
Edmund startled when a vaguely familiar voice called out. Turning, he eyed the man for a moment before a wide grin appeared. "Mr. Sunjata! Hi!" The child jogged over, stopping a few front of feet in front of the man. He held out a hand, "It's me Edmund! Nice to finally meet you properly!" He paused, biting his lip in contemplation. "I remember when Mummy too me to meet you. I was smaller then."
Another thing about that meeting weighed on the child. He recalled strong, warm arms. But also overwhelming sadness. "Are you happier now Mr. Sunjata? Do you need another hug?" Edmund was more then happy to hug the man if that was what was required to cheer him up. Sunjata was clearly a friend of his mummy's so Edmund wanted to help. That and he kind of wanted to just hug the man anyway.

I never realized how beautiful
Fires burn under the stars
Fires burn under the stars
