Strange Request

She was assuming that it was Adam’s first sale of the day but knowing that he didn’t sell anything made her anxious. What else was this man there for? What were his intentions and what was it that he wanted from her son? Was this man planning on causing any harm to Adam? While Krista thought the man was gone, a week later she’ll be remembering this incident all over again.

A Favor
Thirsty Work

Adam tried to wrap up the incident in one sentence and Krista couldn’t get what he was trying to say. So, Adam explained the whole thing. As per Adam, he was a nice man and was looking for a little favor from Adam, but what favor? Sometimes it becomes a really tough thing to get words out of a kid’s mouth and it was the same moment. 

Thirsty Work

When Adam finally explained the whole scenario to his mom. What she understood was that this man was a mailman who has been working from quite a while. From door to door dropping the mails. He was tired and thirsty. Passing by this society he noticed Adam’s Kool-Aid stall and he stopped. The mailman was willing to buy the Kool-Aid but there was one problem.

Seeing the lemonade stall on one hot day is one achievement. But there was one major trouble that was stopping the mailman from buying the lemonade. That day before leaving for home, the mailman forgot his wallet home. So, he didn’t have anything on him to pay the little boy.

Despite knowing the fact that the mailman didn’t have any money on him Adam went ahead and gave him a big glass of chilled Kool-Aid. Her boy was indeed kind and loving and this made Krista feel proud of him. She smiled and patted him on his back. At this time, she thought it was all over but a week later something will force her to take action.

A week later, Krista was collecting the mails from the mailbox when she saw a letter for her son. Why would anyone write a letter to Adam? She opened the letter and understood that there was something more wrapped in the note. She couldn’t hold back her tears and immediately decided that the world needed to know what that mailman just did.
