It snowed for days. Everything was frozen solid. As we hadn't the heating in our classroom, most of us wore thick and warm clothes. Then, by chance, I discovered under Lucas' dirty woolen coat, there was just a semi-sleeved shirt.
It was so strange that I couldn't help wondering whether Lucas was crazy to make such a choice. I told this to the boys in my class. " How stupid!" We all ran to see Lucas and jokingly pulled off his coat. Lucas stepped back, shaking with both cold and anger. I saw tears welled into his eyes.
When I went back home, I told mom " the stupid choice" Lucas made.
Mom fell silent. Then she made a phone call. The next day, she told me to bring a package to the school. " Give it to Lucas. Tell him to put on the clothes in it. "
" Why?" As a fourth-grader, I wasn't wise enough to see something hidden behind. It was years later that I understood that Lucas' family had the basics, but there was little money for much else beyond food and shelter. Mom hugged me and said softly, " Guess why a hungry person doesn't eat?" " Because he can't get any food to eat. " I answered loudly.
" Exactly. " Mom said, " So, why doesn't Lucas wear thick and warm sweater?" It all clicked into place.
It made me feel guilty. Mom said it was unkind to make fun of disadvantaged friends. And mom also told me to" see" through my heart, but not just through my eyes. I wondered " How?"
At the end of the term, the teacher told us we were going to take a class picture as, for some reason, we would break up when we stepped into the fifth grade. Twenty-two students lined up in three rows and faced the camera with happy smiles. The teacher told us anyone who paid a dollar would bring a class picture back home. I could hardly wait to get my first class picture.
