I've actually bought bus tickets for a couple of stranded girls. In the '80s, when I worked for several movie theatres in the Times Square area, I used to meet runaways all the time.
A couple I let into my theater, took them upstairs and had some fun. But most, I brought inside, got them popcorn and a soda and then after my shift ended, took them straight over to "Under 21," the drop-in spot for teenagers who found themselves on the streets of New York.
I did buy a couple of girls bus tickets home and made them promise to call me, collect, if necessary, to tell me they made it home safe. One called. Another girl's mother did also to thank me.
A couple of years ago, I picked up a 22-year girl from Louisiana right outside the McDonald's on the Deuce. She was White, about 5'5", and 160 lbs with medium length dark hair. What thighs and a rack. Normally, I pass on young-uns, but this one, I didn't. Bought her one drink at a bar on 45th Street and then took her butt home.
Had to call in the next day because I wanted to bang her again. I took a bunch of digital photos of her, then eventually deleted them. The next day, I drove her into Manhattan and handed her over to a guy she called her friend. I saw her again that same week outside Mickey D's, her big breasts jutting out of her leather coat, but I crossed the street and kept going.
You can still spy some street urchins in the Times Square area. They used to hang out in front of the Port Authority Bus Terminal a couple of years ago. I have no idea where they congregate now. But I met a few in front of the bus terminal. back in the day.
