A homeless and poor Brandon offers his last $2 to an elderly man in need at the gas station store and inherits his company the next day. Brandon thinks this is the start of a new life for his family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brandon clutched his paper cup with change as he shuffled into the gas station store. He was near an aisle when a loud voice distracted him. He saw a queue of angry shoppers waiting behind an elderly man who had difficulty hearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m sorry, what did you say about the water being funny?\u201d the elderly man asked the cashier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Money!\u201d she groaned. \u201cI said you don\u2019t have enough money, sir!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes, it was a sunny day!\u201d replied the man with a frown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou need more cash! For the water!\u201d A younger guy standing behind the man grabbed him by the shoulder and yelled into his ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brandon noticed everything. He was tempted to step in, but he didn\u2019t want to attract the shoppers\u2019 ire. Meanwhile, the elderly man explained he didn\u2019t have enough cash, asking if he could get a smaller bottle of water as he needed to take his pills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf you can\u2019t afford to pay, you\u2019ll have to go!\u201d shouted the cashier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI can go?\u201d He smiled and turned to leave, but the cashier snatched the water bottle from his hand. \u201cJust get out, old man!\u201d she hissed. \u201cYou\u2019re way too much trouble!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The elderly man requested that he needed to take his pills, but his pleas fell on deaf ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brandon had had enough. He marched to the cashier and offered to pay for the old guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHave a heart, lady,\u201d he said and emptied his cup on the counter. The woman looked at him in distaste before she counted the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
