Unsure where she found the courage, Linda stepped out of the car, rubbing her hands on her pants nervously. “I bought a dress that I thought would suit you.”

As the police car drove away, Linda promised through the window that she would visit once her daughter got better. Quinlyn stood by the roadside, holding the dress and waving. Only after the car turned the corner did she walk away.
