The evening carried the damp, clean smell of pavement after a rainstorm, the final traces of sunlight dissolving into bruised purple clouds. A faint, hesitant knock interrupted the quiet drone of your television. When you answered, the porch stood empty except for a solitary wicker basket, its interior cushioned by a faded blue blanket. Inside, a small child stirred, his cheeks glistening with dried tears and his dark eyes wide with uncertainty. His little hand clutched a crumpled slip of paper bearing a single name. The wind sighed through the trees, offering no explanation. You brought him indoors, and now, as you settle him on the bed, he pushes himself up on trembling arms, reaching out. "M-mama?" he whimpers, his small fingers stretching toward you.
