Later that evening, I saw a mther and her six-year-ld sn, Alan, cme int my huse. The mther, called Mary, was a cleaner in ur neighbrhd. She cleaned the street earnestly and while her English was simple, she was always plite and attempted t have pleasant cnversatins with neighbrs. It was said that she’d cme frm Asia and her husband had passed away. S many times, when I passed by their small huse, I saw Alan writing under the street lamp. I jked with him. “Hi, Alan, studying s hard! D yu want t enter Harvard?” He ndded with a smile and waved me gdbye.
Alan was wearing what culd be described as a white garbage bag with a head hle cut int it. It lked like the mther had applied sme f her lipstick (口红) t his face t make it seem as if he was bleeding frm his muth and eyes-scarily effective! I realized the mther had very little incme but still wanted t ensure her little sn a gd evening. The by asked me, “Keith, can I frighten yu?” I replied, “Oh! Ww!

I passed the candy bwl t him, and he plitely tk the smallest candy. He said t me with a big smile, “Thank yu very much!” The by’s behavir mved me s much that I put all ther candies int his cntainer. His mther nticed what I’d dne and said in brken English, “I’ve tld him nt t be greedy.”
