Do you have a phone?

  I am sorry we do not have a phone here. But there is a phone a pay phone in the park that we can use.

  How about you right a note to let them know you will be out. I know that they probably do not care, but the the mature thing to do. Then I need to make a quick call before we go to find you a suit.

  Ok,

  He writes a quick note, then head out of the dore to the car. Then head to the pay phone in the park. Where he gets out of the care and put the coins in to dial long distance number.

  “Can I speck with the watch captain?”

  “Yes, the is bother of the bazosport lodge”

  “I am coming up to get a suit for a canadit”

  “AcheI YeTom, should be there in an hour.”

  “Thank you brother”

  He gets back into the car and we head over the 288 and up to the outskirts of Houston.

  Can I asked what you said. I am pretty sure it si not Spanish or Korean.

  You know Korean?

  no, but I know member of my church who are and have learned to recognize the language. Welll not really, but I was sure it was not Korean.

  So, I am curious, why not some place local. Some place like sears or JCPeny.

  You still do not understand, do not worry about it. I am taking you to a place where we can get a suit that will fit you and be appraise for the Dinner. It is a formal affair. One that one should look as nice as possible, especial since I am sure this will not be your only award ceremony..

  I am sorry I did nothing special. I just did what I have seen my family do a hundred times. Well maybe not a hundred times. But I can not think of how many times we stop to help someone on the side of the road. Give someone a ride who walking out fo the way. It is just what I have leaned to do.

  Ok, that will explain, the past summer. So answer me this question did you go looking for opportunities to assist people?

  I can say most of the times, I was just not actively looking to do good. But, I could see that you were in a tough place. So, even with the bad weather. I would only get wet, what am I talking about, I was already wet. But you were stuck, you had your wife and kid in the car. But we got you back on the road and you were fine. I really did not think much more about it.

  What did you think about me handing you a coin.

  I was surprised, I almost did not think you were old enough to be part of the group who gave them out. I was not sure how it even got started. I thought some friends got together and used it as way of saying thanks. So, I was surprised to see you show up to day. Especially since I am sure i did not give you my address.

  Would you like to know how I know where you lived?

  Yes, a few weeks ago if I understand the story right, you were given a ride back from Duncan Donuts after working there that night. If I remember the story right, you were there to cover for your uncle who was sick.

  Yes, I have been helping out my uncle since I was 12 years old , it is not a big deal. He needed my help, so I was baking for him that week. It was no big deal, I do rides like that all the time. I have watch my family do it, and have made the donuts a few times in the past. So, it was just a matter of stepping up and it felt good to do that.

  So, you think that is no big deal, what 10 hours shift and ride a bike home. You are not even out of high school. The was prepare to ride home in the rain. When oftered a ride, I am glad you did take it. You gave a coin that was given to you. As a way of recognizing the service being done for you.

  That is basically is the story. It was a big relief on me, it was almost what I call a Texas car wash type of rain.

  So, you are saying it was raining hard enough that the rain could clean the car like in car wash.

  Yea, so you can see why I was happy to take the ride home.

  So, you can image how me and my wife felt when you were there to help. My wife still think that you where a god send. If we had a baby sitter, I think she would have came with us. She was so glad that I could give you the invitation. I was begging to be the one to let you know you were invented to the award dinner. So, I was not going to let you get out of it because you needed a suit.

  Look, thanks it is a nice thing you are dong for me.

  Look, we are almost there. I want to make sure I do not miss the turn off. So, we will be quiet for a few minutes until we get to the shopping center. Are you hungry there is a nice place to it when we get there. Let’s get some food, I will run over to the Tailor to make sure when he will be free. We may see a few other in the center if they have time for you.
