Never drink and drive!!!

 

I was walking aimlessly in the mall at that time. Suddenly I saw a cashier in a store talking to a boy of about 5 or 6 years. The cashier said to the little boy:

"Sorry baby...you don't have enough money to buy this doll"

The boy suddenly turned to me

"Uncle, see if I have enough money to buy that doll," he asked me.

I looked at the money in his hand and said this

"What uncle said is right baby, you don't have money to buy this doll."

After hearing what I said, the child's face became sad, but he did not let go of the doll in his hand and looked helplessly at me and at the cashier of the store.

"This is the doll that my sister loved so much... she always bothers my mother because she wants this doll... I want to gift this doll to her on her birthday," the boy continued.

"I want to give this doll to my mother, so when my mother is gone I can give this doll to my sister."

"Sister has gone to heaven...father said that mother will also go to heaven soon. So if you give this doll to mother, mother will go to sister."

My heart stopped for a moment, the boy continued.

"I told father that mother should not go to heaven right now. So mother is waiting for me to bring the doll."

Then he put his hand in his trouser pocket and showed me a photo, that photo was of him.

"Let mom take this photo so that my sister will never forget me. I love mom so much, I don't want mom to leave me and go to heaven, but dad says mom needs to go. As soon as possible to my sister," he said again, with sad eyes. He said with anticipation

I quickly grabbed the doll from my wallet

"Let's look at the money you have again, baby, maybe we made a mistake earlier," he said

"And uncle...I think I have some money" he handed me some money and I made sure to add mine without him noticing. Once again he was happy to see that he had more money than he needed.

"Now I can buy a white rose for my mother...my mother loves white roses very much," he bought the doll and went to the nearby flower shop.

After a while, I left to go home again, not even for a moment did my memory get rid of that little boy. Suddenly I remembered a news that appeared in a local newspaper two days ago. It featured a story about a young mother and her young daughter who were hit by a drunk driver's truck. . It is stated in the newspaper that at that time she was living with the help of machines. I realized that they were probably the mother and sister of the little boy.

Another two or three days passed. Another story about the little boy was published in the newspaper, which mentioned the sad news of the death of the child's mother. Seeing that, I couldn't help but attend her funeral, so I took a bunch of white roses and attended it.

Her body was placed in a coffin with a white rose on her chest, next to the coffin was the doll the little boy bought for his sister and his photo. I left the place with tears in my eyes and that little baby changed my outlook on life completely.

I still can't imagine the boundless love he had for his mother and little sister. But in one moment, a drunk driver took it all away from him.
