However, when a young woman opened the door, the boy was shy, so he just asked for some water. The woman knew he was hungry, so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much should I pay for it?” “You won’t pay for it. My mother has told me that it is good to help the people who are in trouble, ” she replied. The boy said, “Then I thank you form my heart.” As the boy left that house, he felt stronger. He knew he had many things to do.
