I sighed. That day wasn't the greatest of days, but I really had tried to make it fun. Kieran and I went to our favourite resteraunt, but we found out they were moving to another location.
We tried to see a movie, but everything was sold out. Overall, my birthday hadn't been going that well.
We started walking home, defeated and tired. The grey clouds looming overhead didn't help at all with my mood, so I just shoved my hands in my pockets and kept walking.
We were almost back to our house when Kieran stopped suddenly in front of an opening to an alleyway.
"Do you hear that?" he spoke softly, turning an ear to the alley. I furrowed my eyebrows, hearing a small noise. I stepped closer, stopping to listen next to a fire escape ladder.
The noise registered, and I acted immediately.
"It's a kitten!" I whispered a little loudly, making sure I didn't scare it off. It was crying and I wanted to make sure it was okay.
This is the kitten 👇

Kieran appeared at my side, and I walked further seeing the small animal in a quite decorative box behind someone's trash can.
My mouth twitched up into a smile for the first time that day, and I crouched down slowly in front of it.
"Hi there," I sighed, seeing a small pink how around its neck. It mowed once more, crouched down in the box. A rumble of thunder rolled over our heads, and a few drops of rain hit the pavement around us.
Kieran stood beside me.
"Did someone leave it here?" he wondered, and I shrugged. My fingers wrapped around the small body, resting the poor thing in my lap as I picked up the box to see if I could get anything from that.
There was a small card inside the box and it was a little dark but I caught my name on it.
"Is this supposed to be..." I let my words trail off, realizing what all of it was a Kieran bent down beside me.
