Amidst the chaos, something caught his eye. He had to look again because was he really seeing this? Amidst the sea of people, there was a dog, sitting quietly on the platform. At first, he assumed that the dog must belong to someone, perhaps a passenger who was waiting for the next train. But as he observed the dog more closely, he realized that it was alone, without an owner in sight.
Amir didn’t expect to see something like this from the first day he took the subway. He would normally take his car but his car was at the garage so he had to take the subway for the next few days. Amir’s heart sank at the sight of the dog, alone and vulnerable in the midst of the chaotic station.
