The other day, while doing some shopping, along with my family members, when a poor fellow asked me for some donation, I said, 'I wouldn't give you cash, what else you want?'
He looked at me and said, 'Sir, get me some food.'
I, then, took him to a near by Dhaba and bought a few rotis and sabji for him, and handed the same over.
He, with the packet in hand, started moving away quickly.
Perplexed, I asked him, 'why don't you eat your food here?' '
'My children first, Sir!' He replied and vanished, without waiting for my response.
Tears came to my eyes and I regretted not buying him another packet.
It cost me just 30 rupees, but, for him, it appeared to be another chance of seeing the smiling face of his hungry children.
