Chapter 14

Bella was savoring her ice cream cone leisurely while her father left for the pharmacy in order to fill up her grandmother's medication.

She sat under an umbrella which was placed next to Ernie's ice cream van, Ernie being an old friend of his father's kept an eye out for the little girl who loved her soy ice cream.

Bella was enjoying the frosty treat while watching people in the park; it was a sunny day which was few and far between in Seattle.

She stared at the children playing and dogs running, there were different people around her and the person who caught her attention among all of the happy and fun was the old man sitting on a bench few feet's away. Bella noticed how people walked around him giving the old man a wide birth at where he was seated.

Bella couldn't help but notice how he was dressed, the man had dirty clothes which had holes in some places, he had a dirty appearance of someone who hadn't taken a bath for sometimes and under all the raggedy clothes he looked too thin with hollowed cheeks.

Couple of times in her young life she had seen people like him, and when she asked from her dad who they were, he had answered that these people didn't have homes and were poor so they lived in streets.

She felt sad for him now and hoped someone will help him, When she grows up she was going to help people like that Bella thought to herself.

She was so lost in thoughts and tasting the ice cream Bella didn't notice the voice that drifted towards her from quite a bit away from where she was sitting.

"Mom, please, please I want a chocolate ice-cream cone" Edward was jumping up and down trying to get his mother's attention away from her friend.

"Mommy, please!" he kept pouting and hugging Esme hard that she couldn't help but give him her full attention.

"You are impossible, wait a minute Sherry" She gave an apologetic smile and pulled a five dollar bill from her purse, "Here, go and be back soon"

Edward gave a whoop and zoomed towards the ice-cream van which had a queue forming now. Bella stared at him wondering if he will recognize her or not, but while waiting for his turn to buy Edward got distracted watching the homeless person sitting silently while being avoided by the people passing him.

He watched all of this while waiting for his turn to buy his ice-cream but when it was his turn Edward stared at the bill in his hand and back at the ice-cream display and shrugged, he left without buying and walked towards the homeless man and stopped few feet's away from him.

"You need this more than I do" With that he gave the money to the old man and ran to his mother who was still engrossed in her conversation with her friend.

"You are back, ready to go? Where is your Ice-cream?" His mother asked looking at his empty hands.

"It fell" Bella wondered why he lied but watched her mother asking if he want to buy another one and how when he refused they walked away.
