Hugo liked taking control of the games. It made him feel better; made him feel bigger. Hugo wanted them all to look up to him and think he was the best at everything. Sadly all they did was cry. He didn’t understand that.
He crawled over to the blue block and put his pudgy hand on
it, but Miss Cynthia snatched away.
“That’s quite enough young man! We won’t be having any more
of that!”
She scooped up Sophie who’d been crying for quite some time
- ever since he’d knocked over her tower with the red block - and left him
there. He was confused; a pile of blocks was much more impressive than a tower,
everyone knew that. He looked round. Bobby had crawled off to inspect the
kitchen after Hugo had taken over driving the block trolley. He was alone. His
bottom lip began to tremble.
Hugo seems like a bit of a bully or maybe just a know-it-all. Great take on the prompt!
