It was midday and Kyle sat in the lunchroom at school. His lunch was small but it was there, which was more than he could say for many. But, privileged though he knew he was to have it, Kyle couldn't bring himself to touch the food. He was distracted by the large screen that had been set up in the lunch room, showing the games. Mandatory viewing and all that, and they already missed so much in classes.
Kyle very pointedly did not look at the screens. He refused to watch the games if he could avoid it - and indeed he had a large bruise on his cheek from refusing at home. Fortunately the talk in the cafeteria was loud enough to drown out any audio. But there were still tears in Kyle's eyes as he looked blankly at his lunch bag.
