The Biker Found Two Kids Waiting At The Bus Stop With A Note That Said “Please Take Care Of Them”

On a quiet Saturday morning, my brother Jake and I were riding back from our coffee run when we spotted them—two little blonde girls, sitting alone at a bus stop, wearing neon yellow safety shirts and holding a blue balloon. A small paper bag sat between them, and something about the scene didn’t sit right.

As we approached, I noticed the younger girl crying while her older sister gently held her. Jake and I stopped and crouched down. “Hey there, little ones,” Jake said softly. “Where’s your mama?”

The older girl pointed to the bag. Inside, we found juice boxes, clothes, bread, and a folded note:

“I can’t do this anymore. Please take care of Lily and Rose. They deserve a life. I’m sorry.”

No name. No number. Just two little girls, left with hope that someone kind would find them.

“Your names?” I asked.

“I’m Lily. She’s Rose. Our mama said someone nice would find us,” Lily whispered.

Jake’s tough biker face cracked, tears rolling down his beard. He hugged them tight. “I got you. You’re safe now. I promise.”

We called 911, but the girls clung to us. Rose said for the first time, “Don’t want police. Want you.”

Within hours, emergency placement approval came through—just enough for Jake and me to temporarily foster them. For four hours, we fed them chicken nuggets, played with crayons, and shared motorcycle stories. By the time social workers returned, a bond had already formed.

Three months later, we’re official foster parents. Lily starts kindergarten soon, Rose talks nonstop, and our biker brothers built them a pink, daisy-painted bunk bed. Their birthdays are marked with balloons, laughter, and hugs—proof that family isn’t always who gives birth; sometimes, it’s who shows up.

Every time I see their blue balloon—now deflated but cherished—I remember that morning. Two little girls, a paper bag, and a chance encounter that changed all of our lives. They chose us that day. And we chose them back. Forever.
