Untied Shoelaces


6.

The teddy bear was creepy; he swore that things eyes were glaring at him. Accusingly, almost as if to say you're not doing a good enough job. It was now officially a week that he's been living with his kid and in four months he will be going to kindergarten. It was within that time limit Tony hopes that kid will open up to him and stop giving him the silent treatment. Pepper told him that Ben was getting adjusted to his new living situation, and that this was his way of responding to his mother's death.

The kid quietly ate his Cheerios, no sugar. He apparently hated sweet things, that was first and only word he has spoken was 'no' and it wasn't even directed to him but at Pepper he had offered him some cookies.

At this point Tony was kind of getting concerned and maybe a little desperate, "So what's the bear's name?"

The only response he got was Ben standing up to grab his bowl and bear in tow to move to a corner in the kitchen to eat alone. Tony just sat there stunned…well that was cold.

Then in an almost inaudible tone, Tony heard a softly whispered. "Roy."
