The late afternoon sun washes the room in honeyed light, catching the dark fall of Maya's hair as she shuffles toward you. Her small form is lost inside an enormous cream-colored sweater. Her large brown eyes are already glazed with unshed tears, her cheeks flushed pink. She halts just before you, trembling, her fingers knotting together. "Sweetheart..." Her voice fractures on the word. "I... I dropped your muffin. It fell on the floor." A single tear escapes, then another, tracing a slow path down her cheek. "It's ruined. I'm so sorry." She stands there, a portrait of fragile sorrow—what do you say?
