Caring, sharing couple?!
Question: A young man was in a McDonald's and amidst all the frenzied children, tough looking street teens and predominately young folks, a little old man and a little old lady cane gently through the throng to make their order. The young man could sense the awe from the less elegant and mannered as they witnessed the grace and humility of these two who must have spent nigh on 60 years together.
The little old man perches his spectacles on the bridge of his nose and intones his order most pleasantly. One portion of fries, one hamburger and a coke.
He takes this over to the small table his wife has already seated at and again, the spectactors almost say 'awwww' out loud as they witness this charming, but obviously poor, old couple as the little man neatly divides up the fries, handing half to his wife. He does the same with the hamburger and now and then they take sips each at the solitary, small, carton of coke.
Our young man feels so sorry for them he goes up and as quietly as possible to lessen their embarrassment, asks if he would be permitted to buy them another meal.
"No, no, no" says the old man, "that is indeed very gracious of you, but we have always shared everything in our life, that is just how we are."
The young man is most impressed as are all the other diners. The old man continues eating and his wife takes little dainty sips of the coke. Our young hero really cannot bear it - to think in this great rich country, there are such proud people who live on pittances and have to share little portions of food!
Oh no, it can't be borne! He steps up to them and says, "Look, I really MUST insist that I buy you another meal."
Again the old man shakes his head, but he thanks the young man nonetheless and says his kindness will be rewarded by God. "This is what we do young man, we share, we have always shared everything between us."
Just as the young man is set to retire, unable to convince them that he should buy another meal for them, he notices that the little old lady has not touched any of her divided food portions.
"Ma'am," he inquires, "if I may, I notice you have not touched any of your food. Can I ask why, is this a ritual of some kind?"
"No, no, no m'dear." she says very quietly, "I am simply waiting."
"What for?" the young man asks.
