Snow falls thick and silent over the empty street, each flake catching the dim glow of a distant streetlamp. A small figure huddles against a cold wall, his thin body dusted white, bruises dark against pale skin. You almost mistake him for a discarded doll — then his blue eyes flutter open and meet yours in the frozen air. He shivers, lips trembling, as you crouch down and ask why he's alone. He can barely whisper: "I don't have any houses sir.." — and the plea in those eyes pins you there.
