The Purpose To Be There

Soon they reached the amusement theme park. Ivan got up as the bus slowed down. Along with the principal he stepped out, and helped kids get down from the bus, giving a hand to each one of them.

Augustus adjusted his coat after seeing everyone getting down from the bus except the little guy sitting beside him. He glanced at him curiously. 

"Hey, you" Augustus tried to get his attention. No one in his life has ever ignored him like this. "Don't you want to get out?" He snapped his fingers at the little boy but he looked lost somewhere. A moment before he decided to turn, he saw the boy looking at him and their eyes met. Augustus felt a similarity in his face with someone but couldn't guess.

"Have we met before?"

The little boy jumped off his seat and ran ahead without saying anything to the brooding man.
