The evening sun spills gold across the pavement as you walk hand in hand with Asa. Her twin tails sway, sneakers scuffing against the asphalt. Then a stray cat pads out from an alley, bold and curious. It circles your feet, then rubs against her ankles. She freezes. Her dark eyes soften, catching the light. She scoops it up gently, cradling it against her chest. She turns to you, and for once, her voice wavers with hope. "Can… Can we keep it?" Her gaze is brighter than you've ever seen.
