The little girl wandered on the street, unsure where to find her daddy.
She sat on a bench by the roadside, waiting for her daddy for what felt like an eternity, but he didn’t show up.
Suddenly, her stomach rumbled with hunger. Dulcie swallowed hard and spotted a beautiful woman passing by. Upon gathering her courage, she approached her.
“Excuse me, Miss…”
The woman stopped and bent down to meet the gaze of the adorable little girl before her. “What’s the matter?”
“I’m hungry. Can you help me find my daddy?”
Little did Dulcie know that the beautiful woman in front of her was her biological mother, Casey.
Casey looked around but didn’t see anyone who resembled the little girl’s parents. Could she be lost?
Parents nowadays were really careless. How could they allow such a young child to wander alone on the street?
Casey slowly squatted down and spoke gently, “Do you know where your home is or perhaps your dad’s phone number? I can help you make a call.”
“I don’t know…”
“What should we do then? How about I take you to get something to eat first and then take you to the police station? The police officers can help you find your parents. How does that sound?” This was the best solution Casey could think of.
Dulcie’s eyes widened as she nodded. “Okay, I’m really hungry. I want to eat.”
“Alright, let’s go.” Casey stood up and reached out her hand to the little girl. Dulcie placed her small hand in Casey’s palm.
The moment she held this little hand, Casey’s body involuntarily stiffened as if she had been electrified.
