An older woman sits at a table in the MacDonald's play place. Next to her is a tray of empty wrappers and a folded newspaper, which she does not read. She stares up at the play structure, watching the young boy she is responsible for. He calls her "aunt".

She beckons to the boy, who runs to her side. "Stay here," she says, "I'm going to get more coffee. I'll be back in a minute."
