Tiny paws tap against the cold sidewalk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A puppy<\/strong>, no more than a few weeks old, wanders down the street \u2014 ears drooping, fur messy, eyes wide with confusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He sniffs the ground. [EXT. ALLEYWAY \u2013 MOMENTS LATER]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n He checks behind garbage bins. No tail wagging to greet him. No soft nudge. Every time a dog barks in the distance, his ears perk up and his tail lifts. And his tail drops again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [EXT. CORNER SHOP \u2013 LATER]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n He curls beside a storefront, watching people walk by. Some glance. No one stops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He rests his head on his paws, letting out a tiny whimper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But then\u2014 SOFIA<\/strong>, 20s, kneels beside him with kind eyes and a warm blanket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SOFIA (softly):<\/strong> The puppy looks up, unsure. Then slowly, he leans into her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n [INT.

Sniffs the air.
He\u2019s looking.<\/strong>
For someone familiar.
For someone warm.
For Mommy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
Under parked cars.
Behind fences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just silence and the sound of passing cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then he realizes\u2026 it\u2019s not her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
a gentle hand reaches down.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hey there, little one\u2026 are you all alone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
But he found someone who would love him just the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
