[2]My friends argued that I shouldn't go, mainly because l was seven months pregnant then. I assured them that I'd be very careful. One of them wanted to come with me but I insisted that she stayed with another friend who needed help with her baby.
[3]I walked out of the hotel and started making my way to the car. At the traffic crossroads, a van stopped and the passenger got off with an umbrella. Before I knew what was happening, he walked right beside me and told me he'd help me to my destination. I was very embarrassed and declined, but he was very insistent.
[4]During our walk, he kept telling me to walk slower, as the ground was wet. When we got to the car-park, I thanked him and we parted ways. I did not get his name and may not even recognise him now. Did he purposely stop for me? I'll never know.
[5]So how did I pay it forward? I was at home when I noticed two Indian construction workers walking in the heavy rain. They were probably ________ to the construction site near my residence, which was a long walk. I went out and passed them an umbrella. They were taken aback by my gesture, and I told them they should take the umbrella and keep it. They were very grateful and like me, probably wondered why a stranger was offering such kindness.
