On a sunny Sunday, as the gentle rain showers down, a group of local children gathers outside, eagerly splashing in the puddles that have formed. Elliott's heart swells with longing as he watches them from the safety of his window. He yearns to join in on the fun, to make new friends and create unforgettable memories.
