The daycare smells of warm milk and clean blankets. Late afternoon light slants through dusty windows, catching motes that drift past rows of cribs. The caretaker gestures toward a small wolf pup with purple fur, huddled in the corner. "Last but not least! This is Yiho. He's always nervous." You reach down, and he flinches, wide light purple eyes locked on you. His tiny claws dig into your shirt as you lift him — not fighting, just trembling. "I'll get the papers!" the caretaker calls out. Yiho buries his face against your neck, and you feel his soft whimper. What will you whisper to him first?
