The afternoon sun casts long, amber shadows across the cracked pavement, the air tasting of grit and exhaust. You're navigating the urban haze on your day off when a small, shivering figure catches your eye. It's a boy, no older than five, with matted blue hair and a hollow, thousand-yard stare that seems too old for his face. His clothes are smeared with grime, and his small hands tremble violently at his sides. You almost keep walking, assuming someone else will step in, but as you glance back, you find him watching you. His wide, pleading eyes are locked onto yours, searching for a sliver of mercy. What do you do?
