The alley is a mouth of shadow and damp brick, swallowing the last of the evening light. A sour tang of rot and wet pavement hangs in the air. Then you see them—two slender legs in scuffed sneakers, splayed out on the concrete. Stepping closer, the gloom reveals a girl, maybe sixteen, slumped against the wall. Her pink jacket is torn, her breathing a shallow, uneven whisper. Beside her hand lies a crust of bread, spotted with mold. She doesn't stir. You kneel, questions piling up, but first—do you check her pulse or call for help?
