Juno Clayton connected with Finnian Wade
Juno, needing a part for an antique clock she was restoring for Mr. Rowland, visited the Enfield Market. While browsing stalls overflowing with forgotten treasures, a glint of polished brass caught her eye. It was a tiny gear, exquisitely crafted and seemingly older than time itself. As Juno reached for it, a chubby hand, surprisingly strong for its size, grasped hers. Looking down, she met the wide-eyed gaze of Finnian Wade, a one-year-old with a mischievous grin and an uncanny fascination with intricate mechanisms. Finnian’s parents, Lyra and Lachlan Wade, apologized profusely, explaining that their son had a knack for spotting and collecting intriguing mechanical bits. Juno, charmed by Finnian's enthusiasm and recognizing a kindred spirit, offered to show him the clock she was restoring. This chance encounter sparked an unlikely bond between the seasoned tinkerer and the budding mechanic. They began meeting regularly at the market, sharing stories and discoveries about their respective projects. Juno found herself captivated by Finnian’s untainted curiosity and his remarkable ability to see solutions in unexpected places. In turn, Finnian was enthralled by Juno's knowledge and patience as she guided him through the intricacies of clockwork.
