“I want that chocolate” , cried the little boy in a adamant tone to his mother.

“No. Enough chocolates for you already” , she said and started pulling him by his arm , trying to drag him out of the store.

Then it happened.

“Excuse me! ” , a voice echoed from behind.

She turned behind to stare into the smiling face of an elderly gentleman holding a large chocolate in his hand.

“Here you go” , said the elderly man offering the chocolate to the little boy, who immediately took it with a big happy smile on his face.

Her first impulse was to politely refuse the offering made by the elderly man and walk away. Their was a brief pause in the moment wherein out of the corner of her eye, she caught the smiling face of her little boy happy on getting the chocolate and admiring it with a dreamy innocence like quality.

“Thank you!” , she said to the elderly gentleman and walked away dragging her little boy.
