No Spares

After a heavy rain, Water was still floating, Roads were closed and Traffic was terribly affected. When I came out from my class, I went to walk to a bus stop, Hardly had I reached there, A young girl starts to beg. I check my pocket, There were no spares, But she was repeating continue, A sir, I am hungry for three days. A gentleman offers him a twenty, If she shall go with him, But she was still staring at me, I have decided to walk five miles. After a long time, When I saw her again, It was very hot day, She was begging for her child.
