The man did not pass by and decided to stand up for the beggar, who was offended by the guard, he did not yet know who this girl was.

When Oleg was young, his mother often told him that the foundation of a decent and just society was to protect the weak. “We need to help those in need, and then someone will help us,” she explained. “Goodness must always win.” Now Oleg was not sure of the words of the parent, the world was much more complicated than he imagined. But the voice of his mother always followed him, like a compass pointing the right decision.



In truth, Oleg did not always follow the commandments of his mother. Realizing the complexity of this world, he began to adapt to it, to evolve in all possible ways to live comfortably. So he became a fairly wealthy man in a big city, and few could argue with it.

One day on the way to the club at the entrance to the mall, he saw a girl of 11 years. It was a beggar. She was standing under the wall, and the fat guard demanded that she leave. Not uncommon for the city, but somehow this picture made Oleg stop.

Peels approached the guard and asked what was going on. The girl didn't want to leave. She came to the center almost every day, despite the guards and their threats. Why? Says her mom and brother need something to eat. Oleg looked at the girl again. There was something about her that made him just unable to leave her. He asked the girl:

- What's your name?

- Sofia.

- What do you need to buy?

- Food and baby food for my brother, she said.

- Come with me.

Oleg took Sofia by the hand and led her to the shopping center. There they bought many different products, including milk, baby food and other products that were lacking in Sophia’s house. At the same time, Oleg took the girl to a nearby boutique, where he bought her a nice jacket and pants. Children shouldn't get cold.

Peels After that, he volunteered to bring her home. Not far. On the way, Oleg tried to find out how it happened that mom and brother have nothing to eat, and Sofia has to beg on the street.

- Dad took all of Mom's money and left. My mom is not feeling well, and my brother is too small to take care of himself. Unfortunately, I cannot work.

- You shouldn't, Oleg said. - Mind if I talk to your mom? She won't be scared?

- I think she'll like you. Our entrance is in that house over there.



The first thing Oleg heard in the apartment was a baby crying. Sophia asked him to wait a bit in the hallway - she would alert his mother about the guest. When the girl waved her hand to him, Oleg entered the room and saw an emaciated woman on the sofa with a baby in her arms. She looked at him with a surprised look.

- Oleg?

At first, Oleg could not understand how this woman knew his name and why this voice seemed familiar to him. But this woman... He's seen her before. Really?

Anya?

She nodded back. She smiled and wept.

- How did you get here? I thought you and your husband went abroad. At least that's what Aunt Tanya said.

- It is easier for her to imagine that we have left or disappeared than to admit the truth, Anya replied and grinned bitterly. - We're a disgrace to her. How are you? After you moved out, there was almost nothing heard about you in the yard.

- He went to work. Look, Anya, I want to help. You and your children should not live in such conditions. You know I met Sophia outside the mall, right? She begged.



Peels In response, Anya just cried. She held the children close to her and began to ask for forgiveness. It was obvious that a childhood friend simply could not pull the situation out now. She definitely needs help.

At that moment, Oleg decided that he would take on the rescue of this family. The next day he brought more food and clothing. I took Anna to the specialists, where she was assigned the correct care. He also took over utility bills. At first, Anya protested and promised that eventually everything would return, but Oleg did not want to hear anything. He felt that his family was now his responsibility.

A month passed, Anya was recovering. Sophia no longer had to ask for money outside the shops, she went to school. And her little brother hardly cried because he was no longer hungry.

The life of an entire family has been improved by carelessness. Oleg saw the results of his efforts and was very happy about it. Yet his mother was right: protecting the weak is the foundation of a better society.
