It was a cold evening.
I was in a restaurant wearing a pair of new white shoes when a boy of ten came
to me. He was in an old large shirt. "Excuse me, sir! Could I clean your
shoes?" the boy asked. " " I answered.
The boy was busy doing
his work when a heavy rain began. More and more people rushed in and I could
not find the boy. Several hours passed, I thought the boy would not return my
shoes. When it was near midnight, the rain stopped. As the restaurant was to be
closed, I had to move to the door.
To my surprise, at the
door, I found the boy was sleeping without his old large shirt. He held a
package wrapped (包裹) by his shirt in his
arms. I shook him and woke him up. He jumped up and cleaned his eyes for a
while before he recognized me, Then he opened the package hurriedly,
gave my shoes back to me, and said, "I am sorry, sir." "It
doesn't matter." I said. Then, I thanked him and wrapped him with his
unfit shit. On my way home, the boy still stayed in my mind.
