[The City of Sanctuary – POV of a Kid named Luca from the Streets.]
Luca enthusiastically finished his morning routine, put on relatively better clothes, and stepped out of his hut. He had gotten a new job in the Sanctuary since last week. A factory worker, he was called. And even in that, the job of something called Supervisor. The pay was daily and was far better than anything he had ever done before.
If he could do this for 6–7 months, buying a modest house wouldn't be just a dream anymore.
After his two friends, the siblings Riky and Ely, had returned to their village Eastmere a few weeks ago, Luca had felt really down. With the three of them together, they often supported each other in times of need by sharing their little income. Somehow, they could even afford good food once or twice a month because of that. But now Luca was alone.
He would never get to see that beautiful smile of that crazy girl.
