“Bill, have you seen this person before?” Martha ask her husband who had stated to wonder if this strange person was in some kind of trouble.

 

“Never,” Bill replied was he rose to his feet and keep a curious eye on the man who was slowly walking down the middle of the road in a way that which gives the impression he was floating on air. “I don’t even know where he came from. That part of the street is a dead end.”

 

As the man slowly pass the elderly couple home, both Bill and Martha could see that the man pale facial expression that it was filled with sorrow, and desperation. Bill socked his head and without as much asking his wife in what he should do he got out of his poach and being to run toward the man who was only a few yards away from his home.

 

“Excuse me are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” he said in a low hollow tone, “just trying to fine my way.”

 

“Do you need any help? Would you like for me to call someone?”

 

“No,” the stranger said,” I’m afraid that won’t help.”

 

The man was about to continued to walk down the road when Bill call out to him yet again.

 

“I and my wife are having some coffee. Would you have to have some as well as some muffin we made for breakfast? We’ll be happy if you join use.”

 

The stranger was taken by the elderly man kindness.  This person dose not knows him form a hole in the wall yet he was still willing to reach out to him and help him in any way possible. It was something he admitted have rarely seen anymore.

 

“That would be nice,” The stranger said as he followed Bill back o his house with his wife waiting for him on the fort pouch.
