David took his hat off his head, wiping sweat from his forhead with the back of his hand. Stuffing the hat in his back pocket, he looked up at the sun. It beat down, unrelenting, on him and all the other newsies trying to sell their papers. Most of the people on the street didn't bother to stop, all of them in a hurry to get themselves out of the heat.
He closed his eyes for a moment, opening them again and waving a paper in the air, shouting out yet another lame headline. Honestly, where was Jack when he really needed him? He smiled as a young lady bought a paper from him, even pressing an extra penny into his palm before walking away. Now, there was something that didn't happen every day.
He looked up, blinking heavily as sweat rolled into his eyes, then grinned widely as he saw Jack making his way across the park. "Hey! Jack!" He waved and began jogging over towards his friend.
