| At eighteen, I left my home and studied history at Leeds University in England. It was a hard time in my 1 as I was learning to deal with the pain of my father's recent death. One day at the market, I saw an elderly gentleman having difficulty holding onto both his walking stick and his bag of apples. I rushed over and 2 him. "Thanks. Don't worry, I'm quite all right now," he said, smiling at me with a pair of bright eyes. "May I walk with you?" I asked and so began my friendship with Mr Burns, a man whose 3 and warmth very soon came to mean a great deal to me. When we arrived at his house, I insisted on helping him prepare for his meal and asked if it would be all right if I came back again. I thought I should help him. With a smile he replied, "I've never been one to 4 an offer from a kind-hearted girl." I visited Mr Bums twice a week, always on the same days and at the same time. I told Mr Bums how regretful I felt about being 5 with my father two weeks before his death. After about a month, when I went to his house at a different time, I saw him working in his garden, moving around 6 . I was very surprised. "How?" I began, "I thought…" "I know what you thought. When you first saw me at the market, I hurt my ankle earlier that day." "But…when were you able to 7 normally again?" "Ah, not long after our first meeting." "But 8 ?" Iasked. "When you came around for the second time, I saw how unhappy you were, feeling 9 and sad. I knew you were telling yourself that you were visiting me for my sake and not your own. I didn't think you would come back if you knew I was 10 , and I knew you really' needed someone to talk to, and someone who knew how to 11 ." Mr Bums, the man I'd set out to help, helped me. He gave the gift of his time and kindness to a young girl who needed 12 . | ||||
