They were two little boys, perhaps aged three or four, barefoot and in tattered clothes. In fractions of seconds, they went from one side to the other as hulking buses and cars sped through the highway. 

 

I was on the other side, waiting for a ride under the scorching heat of the midday sun. I watched in bated…
