Alec 's mom work at a garbage picking company. So daily alec' s mom would visit the dumpyard of that street. There would be a hill of trashes like electronic devices, toys, bags etc.... And many more which was thrown by random people. Alec's mom would find something for little Alec. Alec's mom had meager income which helped life to move on.
At first this job was Alec's father's after his death Alec's mom got this job...

One day mommy fainted in front of an house. The member' s took mommy to the hospital. Doctor said that mommy has brain tumor. And it's very late. And should have a surgery as soon as possible. Mommy knew it that surgery is very expensive and she also knew it that her life is going to an end a dead end.
Mommy was very tensed not because of death because of Alec. Who will look after Alec, what will happen to him after mommy's death.
Alec's only possessions was mommy and mommy's only possessions was Alec.
Mommy returned home. The night went usually. They lay down to sleep.

Alec was disturbed. Mommy is not opening her eyes nor smiling nor talking.
Alec looked at that young lady. She walked near Alec.
