Ali's almond brown eyes swelled up double the size. He apprehensively opened the dark and tattered wooden front door. He threw the loaves of bread onto the dirty and dusty broken chair. Ali saw his younger sister holding their baby sibling on the floor. As she delicately placed it on the ragged clothes Ali avoided eye contact.
"Where are my shoes?" she asked inquisitively.
"Not here," replied a visibly nervous Ali.
It was clear that panic was rising in him and he was not sure what to do with himself. His hands twisted nervously at his front and his eyes shifted from side to side.
The look on his sisters face turned from puzzlement to sadness. Her eyes got wide and bright blue tears appeared around the rims.
"I will find them!" Ali frantically exclaimed. Determination came across his tiny face. He turned from the room and rushed back outside through the dark wooden door.
