THE PACK OF BISCUITS
One night there was a woman at the airport who had to wait for several hours before catching her next flight. While she waited she bought a book and a pack of biscuits to spend the time. She looked for a place to sit and waited. She was deep into her book, when suddenly she realized that there was a young man sitting next to her who was stretching his hand, with no concern whatsoever, and grabbing the pack of cookies lying between them. He started to eat them one by one.
One night there was a woman at the airport who had to wait for several hours before catching her next flight. While she waited she bought a book and a pack of biscuits to spend the time. She looked for a place to sit and waited. She was deep into her book, when suddenly she realized that there was a young man sitting next to her who was stretching his hand, with no concern whatsoever, and grabbing the pack of cookies lying between them. He started to eat them one by one.
Not
wanting to make a fuss about it she decided to ignore him. The woman, slightly
bothered, ate the cookies and watched the clock, while the young and shameless
thief of biscuits was also finishing them. The woman started to get
really angry at this point and thought, "If I wasn't such a good and educated
person, I would have given this daring man a black eye by now." Every time she ate a biscuit, he had one too. The dialogue between their eyes
continued and when only one biscuit was left, she wondered what was he going
to do.
Softly and with a nervous smile, the young man grabbed the
last biscuit and broke it in two. He offered one half to the woman while he ate
the other half. Briskly she took the biscuit and thought, "What an
insolent man! How uneducated! He didn't even thank me!" She had never met
anybody so fresh and sighed relieved to hear her flight announced. She grabbed her bags and went towards the boarding gate refusing to look back to
where that insolent thief was seated. After boarding the plane and nicely
seated, she looked for her book which was nearly finished by now.
While looking into her bag she was totally surprised to find her pack of
biscuits nearly intact. If my biscuits are here, she thought feeling terribly,
those others were his and he tried to share them with me. Too
late to apologize to the young man, she realized with pain, that it was her who
had been insolent, uneducated and a thief, and not him!!
