Little angel.

It was a usual long day at work. Missed the break too therefore was hungry like a dog by the time i got in my car after work. I took out the lunch my mother had made me and started eating. We stopped at a signal where i saw a little girl begging. She came to my window, looked at my food and expressed how bad she wanted it. I rolled down my window and gave her my sandwich. That was not the end to this story. Since there was a traffic jam we didn't move for a while. I could see her walking away from my car in the side mirror. What i saw next made me cry. She gave that sandwich to her brother and waved a fan at him while he ate. He looked a little older than her and she must be under 10. That sight made my heart ache. What a painful sight. So horribly and painfully sad. I wish i had another sandwich. I wish this world was fair. Free of pain and poverty. Free of ruined childhoods. Free of slavery. I wish. I pray.
