Red Balloon Image
The little boy sat on the edge of the bench, watching the man selling balloons longingly.
Curious, and a sucker for small children, K’tanya walked over to him. "Is everything okay?"
He looked up at her. "I lost my balloon, and I don’t have any money left."
"Is that all?" She took the boy by the hand and proceeded to buy him one of every color.
Grinning, the boy thanked her before walking a little ways off, then letting go of the balloons and watching as they floated up and away.
"What did you do that for?"
"Mine was lonely."
