Paul received an automobile from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street boy was walking around the shiny new car, admiring it. “Is this your car, Mister?” he asked.
Paul nodded. “My brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was astonished. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you anything? Boy, I wish....” He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the kid said made Paul quite surprised.
“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in astonishment, and then impulsively he added, “Would you like to take a ride in my automobile?”
“Oh, yes, I'd love that.”
After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Mister, would you mind driving in front of my house?" Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the he wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big automobile. But Paul was wrong again.
