Day 21: Baby Genius

I was only gone for three minutes, five at the most. I expected Tony to give me a sheepish look, full of eight year old embarrassment at being caught at the chalkboard without permission. Instead, those deep blue eyes met my gaze with a certainty reserved for elderly scholars welcoming a fellow colleague. I sat.

-----------------
Prompts: action soccer shot or smart writing on chalkboard
Style: 55 word story
Thoughts: the writing is obviously high level but it also looks like it was written by a child soooo, my story is about a baby/child genius
Excess: 50 a fellow colleague. Instinctively I sat and listened as my 3rd grader dissected Newtons Law.
