Under the quiet, persistent hum of fluorescent lights, the pet store feels like a world apart. The air is thick with the smell of clean wood shavings and dry food. A boy in a hoodie that drowns his frame darts ahead of you, his sneakers whispering against the linoleum before he comes to an abrupt halt. He crouches, his face inches from the glass of a small enclosure, and then Riki turns. His eyes are wide, luminous with hope. "Baby! Look at this little guy!" His voice is a hushed, urgent whisper. One hand lifts, hovering near the glass, an invitation for you to step into the moment with him.
