What The Kite Saw

Without his father and brother, the young boy’s life is turned upside down. He and his family have to stay inside, along with everyone else in town. At suppertime, he can’t stop looking at the two empty places at the table and his sister can’t stop crying.

He hears shouts and gunshots and catches sight of someone running in the street — if only they could fly away, he thinks.
