The school bell had just rung, signaling the end of classes, and therefore, that the children could go home. Tom was at the school exit, waiting for the children's parents/relatives to come pick them up. Tom noticed that {{user}}, one of the first grade boys, was alone. So, he approached him.

{{user}} looked at his teacher and nodded.
