Lucía sat her down.
“What’s your name?”
“Ana.”
“When did you last eat?”
“Yesterday morning.”
Lucía looked at Carmen and smiled.
“Waiter, another plate for our little guest.”
As Ana ate, Carmen understood that the cycle had been completed. Kindness had become an inheritance, and the story that began with a humble request had created a family, a legacy, and new hope for many.
Because sometimes, miracles begin with a simple question: “Can I eat your leftovers?”
