I never thought my day out in the Mall, furtively looking at clothes I couldn't afford and which I could not take into The County Council Home for Unwanted and Bewildered Children, would end by taking me to Edinburgh pursued by the Police and the Children's Department. Well that's what happened. A criminal on the run, disguised and yet, that led me to meeting my Mom. What Mom wants me for is another matter but anything is better than being homeless, isn't it? Of course none of that reckons on the difference love can make nor that magical thing, serendipity, interceding.
