She looked at the family of three. What a happy and harmonious family of three. They were a family while Lira, on the other hand, was truly a beggar. She turned around and left silently.
As Delmont was about to tell Lira to go home on her own, she was already gone. The eight-year-old child did not know how to get home by herself. After walking for a very long time, she found a phone booth. After she had persuaded the man in the phone booth with all the reasons she could think of, he finally let her make a call. She did not dare to let the cash in her pocket be exposed as she was afraid she would be robbed. That money was practically the lifeline for her entire family.
The call was made to the store downstairs from where Lira, her brother, and their mother were living. Once the call got through, Lira immediately said, "Mister Wilson, could you please help call for my brother?"
Her brother went down very quickly and picked up the call. Once he heard Lira was not able to find her way home, he quickly took the bus and came to pick her up. Lira did not tell her brother how upset she was after she saw how happy her father, his wife and their daughter were together. She just gave her brother the thousand dollars she had gotten from her father.
Because they had an additional thousand dollars, the lives of Eira and her family of three became happy. Malvolio was very good at managing the household. After he had taken the money, he took two hundred dollars out and took his mother to the hospital for a checkup. After the doctor at the hospital looked at his mother, the doctor felt that had already recovered quite a lot, so she could just take medication at home. After that, they bought the medication. The remaining cash was enough for the family of three to get by.
After their mother's health had gradually improved, she started to repair trousers, alter clothes, and alter sleeves and so on in the small wooden shed downstairs. After their mother had a stable income of a few ten dollar bills, and on top of that, their mother was feeling better, so she could make three meals a day for the two children. From time to time, she could even bright Eira for a shower and a haircut. Gradually, Eira became clean. The little girl became more and more slender and elegant. Also, her brother had never mentioned discontinuing his studies anymore.
