" This boy needed someone to love him. And she could do
that. That would be a very easy thing for her to do.
She pulled him close to her, as close as she could, as
close as she’d held her own babies the days they were
born. She held him tight and she put her cheek to his head
and she could feel him start to calm. And then, even before
he was silent, June had already made up her mind.
“I will love you,” June told him. And she did. "
