to be old. (26'o3'o1)
i was on my way home for lunch. it was raining. the streets were empty, everyone was
hurrying for their destination. me too. but something made me turn back. there was an
old lady with a cane. she was leant against a parked car. i went toward her and asked
whether i could help somehow. she was without any hat or so, thus her hair was drenched.
she told me she was in hospital with broken leg recently, now she had problems with
walking and someone stole her all the money and she has actually no food. that she was
a teacher, asked me whether i'm a university student and when i confirmed that, she began
to praise me. i gave her 200 kč (that's little more than 10 dm) and offered her that i'd
help her more - i could see her home and do the shopping by myself. she refused. all the
time was repeating something like 'god bless you' etc. |
