The Swing (2)

As Gabe placed Arabelle back on her feet, he answered affectionately, "Sorry, miss Arabelle. You're just too fast for me so I have to make sure that I catch you."

Arabelle beamed at the praise and turned to look at Autumn. A look passed between the two sisters and the next minute, Autumn crept up behing Gabe and tapped him on his shoulder," Tag. It looks like you're it again..."

With laughter echoing the two sisters then raced away from him as he narrowed his eyes," Oh! You're going to regret that..."

It took her a moment to realise she'd really miscalculated as he turned his attention to her, chasing her relentlessly, as his long strides quickly covered the distance between them. Panicking, she darted around the swing set, trying to use that as a barrier. But even so, she was almost caught, as his fingers grazed her back, missing her barely as she managed to slip away.
