“He always forgot his spoon,” she whispered, remembering how he’d ask to borrow hers and promise to return it with two cookies the next day. He never remembered the cookies.

Anna looked up at the sky, blinking fast. “Maybe you remembered your spoon today,” she said, tucking the lunchbox into her backpack. “Just in case you’re hungry... wherever you are.”
