Act of Kindness
It was just after 3 p.m. . . Zahid had just finished
his lessons today. The hot sun shone mercilessly from a cloudless sky. Beads of
sweat gathered on his forehead and he was drenched I perspiration. When he was
waiting for the bus, he saw an elegant woman. She looks like a rich person.
Maybe she is in her early 30s. But there were two men who look very suspicious.
They stared the woman eagerly.
“Maybe she knows them” he said.
But his
thought was wrong. In a blink of an eye, one of the men grabbed her arm. He was
trying to get the woman’s chain. She is being robbed! The woman tried to put on
a fight. The other man then tried to take her handbag. The woman was pushed
away. She screamed hysterically for the help. The two robbers who were panicked
at her scream ran away swiftly.
Zahid
stared in disbelief. He then went toward the woman to help her. Some of the
passerby saw what has happened. They gave the snatchers a chase. Zahid tried to
get the woman to stand up. She got some injuries on both of her knees and the
palm of her hand. He assisted the woman walk to the bus stop to give a shade
for her. He ran hurriedly towards the public phone which is located besides the
bus stop to call the police.
A few
minutes later, the police came. The passer by who help to chase the two
snatchers managed to catch them. Both of them were handed to the police. The
woman thanked Zahid. She offered some money to him but he kindly rejected her
offer. He said he is sincere to help her and do not want anything in return for
his kindness.
