Little Abode for Children - Chapter 3

The Gala

The gala was for raising funds for building up a shelter for the street children. Kenosha did not yet have any.

City’s older generation had always been generous to these children. They used to take these children for fostering. One among the foster parents was Mrs. Kirk.

Mrs. Kirk used to teach History at Kenosha Middle School. She retired a few years ago. A year ago, she suffered from her first heart attack. It shook her thoughts about the children she used to look after. Since then she started thinking of building a home for street kids. After all, these children could never be sent back. She expressed this concern of her to her friends at Kenosha Knitting Circle.

Mrs. Mary Munro was in the circle. She was Teressa’s grand aunt. She knew about Teressa’s involvement and effort with the children. She shared, “My grandniece, Teressa, runs a center for the street kids. Off course with help and support from her friends and family. She, too, needs an expansion. Can we talk to her?”

Hence, Teressa with Kenosha Knitting Circle arranged a fundraiser event for expansion of Little Abode for Children. The library supported the event by hosting the gala on the first floor of the library building.

The gala appeared to be quite a success. It helped gather a million dollar in contribution. Kenosha Undergarment Factory, a leading global manufacturer of underwear, donated one of their abandoned warehouses to build a kitchen and shelter for rescued street children.

Nathan scribbled a question in his notebook, “Who’d be against such benevolent endeavors and enthusiasts?”

Little Abode for Children - Chapter 2

Teressa LeRoy

Teressa used to live alone. She was one of the student coordinators of the library. She did not show up for work on the day after the gala. Nor did she call in sick. It was very unlikely of her.

Mrs. Henkel, Teressa’s supervisor, tried to call her when she remained absent at work another day consecutively. Mrs. Henkel’s calls ended up repeatedly at voice mail. Worried, Mrs. Henkel, on the day after, while coming to work, stopped by Teressa’s apartment to check on her. It was locked and nobody answered her knock on the door. Mrs. Henkel reported the matter to the police. That day during the afternoon, Detective Nathan Adams showed up in the library. He asked Mrs. Henkel a lot of questions.

Mrs. Henkel was all praise for Teressa. According to Mrs. Henkel, Teressa was a dedicated library worker. She brought up neighborhood children to the library for several summer projects and events. These children were not only from wealthy and working-class households of the neighborhood, but also from the streets around the Metra Station, Simmons Park, Harbor Park and all other public places of the city.

Nathan was compelled to talk to the children. The children were very depressed. They were missing Teressa very much. She had not only brought them to the library, but also she helped them with their homework, school projects and other studies. Especially to the street kids, she was a tutor and a mentor. Apparently, Teressa was only loved and admired; she had no enemy.

After a day of toil, Nathan had no clue about the disappearance of Teressa Leroy. So, he started revisiting his notes.

Little Abode for Children - Chapter 1

The Library

Kenosha public library was the milieu of the people from all hues of life. It harbored homeless people, newly arrived at the town along with the well-to-do residents of its older neighborhoods around the library and library park. The older patrons of the library used to seek entertainment and socializing opportunities at the library. The other group used the library as an information and learning hub.

It was an early spring evening. The neoclassical architecture of the library building seemed scintillating from bright lights reflected from grasses, sprouting leaves and inflorescence of large trees of the surrounding rectangular park, known as Library Park. Inside, it was full of different activity groups occupying different corners. Toddlers were busy with stories of flowers and insects. By this group was a cluster of members from Kenosha Knitting Circle, comprising grown and elderly men and women. The toddlers were keener on chasing bright and colorful balls of woolen yarns than giving an ear to the stories.

Middle and high school students were thronging here and there. Some were volunteering with the library. Their friends were just hanging around them. Some were doing their projects very seriously, scattered mostly around the reference section, history, geography science and literature sections.

Tanya and Asia screamed suddenly. They were standing in between the aisles of classic literature. Their friends rushed to them. They also screamed. Lisa, that evening’s student coordinator for the library, rushed to the screaming youngsters. She, too, shrieked. Her supervisor Mrs. Henkel was with the Knitting Circle. She went to the aisles of screams. Then, she called Detective Nathan Adams of Kenosha Police Department. Detective Adams was working alone because half of the Police Department was in quarantine then. His partner belonged to that half.

By the time Detective Adams arrived at the library, both the groups of haves and have-nots gathered around the classic literature section. The older group was occupied appeasing the young ones. Teressa LeRoy’s gown startled everybody. The gown was hanging from the shelves of the classics in the literature section. Teressa wore it on the night of the gala. Nobody had seen her after that night.

Little Abode for Children - Praises

Here are some kind words about Little Abode for Children.

"Little Abode for Children" is Book 1 of the American Small Town Mysteries series, written by Sanhita Mukherjee …. had an interesting storyline and some pretty great detective and police characters, as well a child characters. Little Abode for Children is the program started at a library by a librarian named Teressa for children who were either homeless, abused, or preyed upon by gang members. The lead detective, Nathan, reminded me of a 1940s/1950s Noir book/movie character. His boss, Captain Brown is a woman, because the text says "she". I liked Captain Brown's character because she was straight forward with her questions to the detective. I also liked the little children, Jack and Melissa.
