From Cat Found
Billy looked down at the plywood crates again. He bent close and called, "Cat. Hey, cat."
The stray practically rushed into his arms.
Billy didn't know what to do. He stood up with his hands full of cat. Cat hair stuck to his shirt. Black powder smeared his skin. Billy looked around for some help. People hurrying by paid him no mind. They had their dinners to think about. He was just a dirty boy with a dirty cat.
The cat felt so light. Billy could feel its heart beating out of time.
