She would observe him, sitting by the corner, begging at her bus stop daily. Despite her own limited funds, she chose to reciprocate his plight by packing an extra roti in her lunchbox, which she handed to him before boarding her bus each day.
One morning, while rushing to catch her bus, her sandal snapped, reducing her to tears. Timeliness was crucial for her job at the garment factory, where her pay was determined by the hour. Witnessing the scene, the beggar, with a new-looking sandal, offered the footwear and gestured that another bus was approaching to ensure she reached work on time. Throughout the workday, she couldn't shake off her curiosity about the beggar's new sandals. Later that evening, after alighting from the bus, she went to return the sandal, studying him intently this time. It was then that she realized he was limbless. She inquired why he had acquired footwear he couldn't wear.
His response was poignant: "While you noticed my hunger and generously provided sustenance all these days, I observed your feet, dragging those nearly tattered sandals held together by countless safety pins."
