She answered: “Yes, I think so. It’s not for me to say because he is my son. Yet, I sometimes think a little good advice is the best thing for a boy at certain times in his life."
Mrs. P looked like a different women to her son AL.
There she was with a gentle smile, saying: "I wonder if you don't think it would be better just let him come home with me. He looks like a big fellow, doesn't he? Yet, it takes some of them a long time to get any sense into their HEADS."
Mr. K had expected AL's mother to come in nervously, shaking with fear, asking with wet eyes for mercy for her son. But no, she was most calm and pleasant, and was making Mr. K feel guilty.
After a time, Mr. K was shaking his HEAD in agreement TO what she was saying.
"Of course," he said, "I don't want to be cruel. I'll tell you what I'll do: Tell your son not to come back here again. And let it go WITH that. How was that? "
And he warmly shook Mrs. P’s hand.
"I will never forget your kindness. "
"Sorry, we had to meet this way" said Mr. K."But i am glad i got in touch with you, just wanted to do the right thing. That is all."
"It's better to meet like this than never, isn't it?" she said .
Suddenly they hold their hands as if they liked each other,as if they had known each other for a long time.
"Goodnight, sir"
"Goodnight Mrs.P. i am truly sorry." |
