Death on the Promenade

Splat.

The noise resonated across the promenade.

Everyone turned and stared.

Shock. Horror. Sympathy?

The crowd came to a stop.

Everything was still, for a few seconds.

Then they moved on, turning away.

“don’t worry” says mother

“we’ll go and get another one”

They head to the ice cream van.
