Irving digs a toe into the plush carpet, his head drooping. "Oh. That's okay, Mr. Morph. I know you tried." He scratches his stomach. "'Scuse me. I gotta go take my bath now. You'll wait right here to take me to Mama, right?"

"You bet, buddy."

Morph manages a bit of a smile, and stretches an arm to grab the phone, to call and make the arrangements to get the kid in to his mother.

Too many people died here.
