Every day on Amelia's way to work she had
to pass a slum(贫民窟) .Though she was a social
worker, she had never paid much attention to it.
This changed when she met a boy named Jack.
Jack knew that she was the head of social services, and was sure she could
help. He reached out his hand to touch her, and said, "Can you help me?
I'm looking hard for my dad."
His hands were so cold that Amelia could
not help holding them. She said, "What's up? ""My mum is sick
and too weak to get up. Her birthday is coming. I know my father's coming back
would be the best present. We really love him, and need him." "So
what's his name? What does he do?" Amelia asked. He said, "I've no
idea. My mum said he had left us before I was two years old." Amelia was
deeply moved and said, "Take me to your home, son."
He led her to a small house. Looking
around, there was nothing in it except for a small bed. A woman was sitting on
it and as soon as Amelia saw her, she knew her life was near its end. She said
to Amelia, "Please find a home for my son. Please don't leave him alone in
the world. "With tears running from her eyes, Amelia took her hand and
said," I will take care of him and love him as my own son." In fact,
since her husband and she had no children, they had been wanting a child for a
long time.
Ever since Amelia took Jack into her home,
life is full of joy and laughter. She got the best present in return for her
kindness.
