At one table by the window, a lady just finished up her lunch. It wasn't anything fancy, just a sandwich and some salad, with a cup of tea to wash them all down. She seemed to be in her own little world, staring out the window every now and then, like she was waiting for something. After a bit, she got up, paid for her meal at the counter, and left.
Her table was still a mess with bits of her meal left behind. It wasn't a big deal—this happens all the time. But today, something different was going to happen. A young boy, who looked like he'd had a pretty rough time, had been watching her and the table from around the corner.
This kid was in bad shape. His clothes were too big and looked like they'd seen better days. His hair was all over the place, and there was dirt on his face. He had that look of someone who hadn't had a good meal for way too long. When the lady left, he saw his chance. He quickly sat down and started scarfing down (狼吞虎咽) the leftovers like they were the best meal he'd ever had.
But then, the waiter walked over. He was an older guy who'd probably seen everything. He didn't say anything at first, just watching the kid for a second. The boy got scared and stopped eating, and tears started to well up in his eyes. He thought the waiter would kick him out for sure. Instead, the waiter took away the half-eaten plate, and the boy's heart sank. The boy got up to leave.
