Leila was left at a crossroads by Bernard. She stood in the cold wind, staring at the speeding van in the blink of an eye with hatred.
The man didn't even leave a pair of shoes for her.
Half an hour later, Mike receives the news and finds out where Leila is.
From a distance, she can be seen squatting alone in front of a small brick shop, wearing bloody socks while stepping on the dirty carpet in front of the door.
Mike's steps slowed down a little.
He didn't worry if she was found by someone.
Less than fifty yards away, Mike walked for five minutes.
When his upright figure stood in front of Leila to block out the light, the girl lifted her head slightly and saw Mike's cheek, then tears bursting out of her eyes.
"Mike..." Leila jumped up and rushed into his arms.
She cried bitterly, looking very sad.
Mike grabbed her, not using much force, just calmly comforting. "It's okay, everything is okay."
