I was walking down the street, minding my own business when I heard a
low sound.
Kind of like a cat that was hungry. I normally don't look for hungry
cats but for some
reason the noise just got to me. I thought, hey I have five dollars in
my pocket, I'll find
the cat and take it with me and buy it some food and that's that. That
will be my good
deed for the week. So, I walked into this alley where the noise was
coming from and I
couldn't see the darn cat anywhere, but I could still here it. The
noise was getting fainter
though. I saw a trash bag on the ground and it looked like it was
moving. I thought, oh
great the cat's stuck in some garbage. That's real clean. So I walked
to the bag and cut it
open, and let me tell you there was no cat in there. I saw a blue baby.
I mean blue.
There was a cord around it's neck and it was tiny like it was just born
minutes ago. I
took out my pocket knife and cut the cord off. The baby then started to
gasp kind of. I
was scared. I picked it up and ran into the store next door and yelled
for someone to call
an ambulance or something. The man who ran the place did it immediately
and he knew
how to do CPR and that helped the baby to breathe. The ambulance and
cops came and
took the blue baby away. I thought that was that. Days later I got a
call from some
people. Turns out they had adopted the baby and were naming him after
me. They want
me to go visit the blue baby sometime. I think that's cool. Now I'll
have a little friend
who I'll always think of as the blue baby.
