All That Is Left Behind
Chapter 3
“911, what is your emergency?” asked the operator.
“I found a lost child at Mont-Royal’s Park, he doesn’t talk much so I don’t know his name yet, but he needs to pee so I’m taking him to my place.” I gave her the address and a description of the child, and every other information I had managed to get out of him. I also promised to bring him to a police station after, and gave them my phone number, just in case.
He followed me quietly, holding my hand all the way until we reached my apartment.
“Do you need help, sweetie?” I asked him.
He shook his head and closed the door behind him.
I smiled and let him do his thing.
I put my bag down and grabbed my purse so that I would have my ID and everything I could need at the police station, and googled the closest police station.
“KITTY!” he screamed.
I jumped out of my skin.
I didn’t even realise he was out.
“Kitty,” he told me loudly, pointing at my cat.
“Don’t scream, please. You will scare her,” I said.
He smacked his hands on his mouth. “You can talk softly, though. Her name is Lily and she’s really sweet.”
“Can I pet Lily?” he asked.
I think it’s the longest sentence he ever addressed directly at me.
“Yes, you can,” I said. “But I think you scared her a little when you screamed. Do you want me to find her and bring her here so you can pet her?”
He nodded and I complied.
We sat in my small living-room, and I let him pet Lily for a little while.
“What is your name?” I asked.
He said nothing and continued to caress Lily’s head carefully.
“You know the name of Lily and Miki, but they don’t know your name.”
“Eloim,” he admitted.
“Do you know your last name?”
He said nothing.
Well, at least I had a first name.
“There is someplace we should go to, Eloim.”
He shook his head.
“I think your family is looking for you.”
“No.”
“You don’t think they’re looking for you?”
