I am Gideon: Chapter #8

Desperate though I was, I had sense enough to realize that a boy with only one set of clothes was going to be noticed.  I worked on a back story.  I was a student doing research for a school project on ancient modes of transport.  Might work if they didn’t ask me which school I went to.  I watched the museum that day.  I saw when the person who worked at the entrance went on her break and to lunch.  Someone who exited but never entered would be pretty obvious. It gave me a window where I could slip out and go look for work.
