<p>While sitting alone in a cafe after being fired&comma; a nurse finds company in a homeless man&period; The next day&comma; Olima arrives to pick her up&comma; and she has no idea her life will never be the same again&period; Lorraine was dumb&comma; she really was&period; She tried everything she could to survive her job&comma; and it reached a point where she couldn&rsquo&semi;t bear her arrogant boss anymore&comma; so she told him what a jerk he was&period; That resulted in her being fired&comma; and she was now worried about how she&rsquo&semi;d manage her bills since she&rsquo&semi;d been living paycheck to paycheck for quite some time&period; I know it&rsquo&semi;s tough&comma; but I had no choice&period; She reminded herself as she sat in a New York cafe&comma; regretting her situation&period; Lorraine&rsquo&semi;s workplace was a few buildings away&comma; and she frequently went there after work&period; Outside&comma; there were straw chairs and round glass tables&comma; each meticulously furnished with a vase of flowers in a magazine&period; But Lorraine was too distracted that day to see how elegant it looked or enjoy the hot espresso in front of her&comma; which had gone cold long ago&period; She worried about what she would do now and the whole nerve racking process she&rsquo&semi;d have to go through to find a new job&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Suddenly&comma; a weak voice interrupted her thoughts&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Please excuse me&comma; miss&period; Do you mind if I have the rest of your coffee&comma; if you&rsquo&semi;re not drinking it&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>I&rsquo&semi;m feeling a little under the cold weather&comma; the voice said&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>What&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Lorraine suddenly looked up and noticed a disheveled man in front of her&period; By his appearance&comma; it didn&rsquo&semi;t take her long to realize he was homeless&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Coffee&quest; She asked confused&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The man noticed Lorraine seemed lost&comma; so he repeated himself&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Yes&comma; the coffee&period; Can I have it&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>He asked&comma; pointing&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>At it&period; Yeah&comma; sure&period; I mean&comma; I wasn&rsquo&semi;t going to have it anyway&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>She replied&comma; offering it to him&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Please join me&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The man nodded gently as he took a seat&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>It&rsquo&semi;s excellent&comma; but it would have been even&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Better if it&rsquo&semi;d been hot&comma; he said&comma; taking a sip&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Thank you for letting me have it&period; My name&rsquo&semi;s Jeffrey&period; Lorraine Simpson&comma; No worries&comma; Jeffrey&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>She replied&period; If you don&rsquo&semi;t mind&comma; Jeffrey said&comma; settling down the cup&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>I can see something&rsquo&semi;s bothering you&period; Not that I have&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The right to&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Meddle in your affairs&comma; but if sharing it with me makes you feel better&comma; I&rsquo&semi;m all ears&period; Just saying&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Lorraine smiled a little&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>That&rsquo&semi;s actually really generous of you&comma; Jeffrey&period; Thank you for asking&period; Honestly&comma; I feel horrible because I lost my job&period; I&rsquo&semi;m a nurse&period; My boss was creating trouble at work&comma; so I lost my calm and yelled at him&period; In retaliation&comma; he fired me&comma; and now I&rsquo&semi;m at a loss for what to do&period; I&rsquo&semi;ve been having financial problems&comma; and lately that&rsquo&semi;s all there is to it&period; Getting fired feels horrible in a life with no money&comma; even worse&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>She cried&comma; shaking her head&comma; and immediately regretted it as she glanced at Jeffrey&comma; who had it even worse&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Sorry&comma; I think I overshared&period; I&rsquo&semi;m sorry if I offended you&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>No&comma; no&comma; you didn&rsquo&semi;t&comma; Jeffrey replied&comma; waving his hands&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>It&rsquo&semi;s all right&period; I hope you&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Feel better now that you&rsquo&semi;ve gotten it out of your system&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Very much&comma; thank you&period; Let me get you&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Something to eat&period; She offered&comma; suddenly feeling grateful to Jeffrey for his thoughtfulness&period; She ordered a tuna sandwich for him and a fresh batch of two cups of coffee&comma; although she knew it would drink her pocket more&period; As the two talked over coffee&comma; Lorraine felt her heart free up of all the worries for a while&period; During their conversation&comma; Jeffrey laughed and said&comma; If I were&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Your boss&comma; I&rsquo&semi;d come to you in a limo and hire you in my medical center&comma; or whatever they call it&period; I&rsquo&semi;d be delighted to have you on my team&period; How could someone fire you&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Lorraine blushed&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>That was all I needed to hear today&period; Thank you&comma; Jeffrey&period; I feel really good after speaking with you&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>After finishing their coffee&comma; Jeffrey offered to walk Lorraine home&period; Lorraine agreed&comma; and while they were walking&comma; she noticed Jeffrey would always be behind her at a considerable distance&period; She pointed that out and his cheek flushed&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>You see&comma; I&rsquo&semi;m a homeless man&comma; he said&period; If people notice us walking&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Together&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>They might not see it in the right light&period; Dral&comma; I&rsquo&semi;m a filthy scuffy man&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Lorraine smiled&comma; shaking her head and held his hand&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>I don&rsquo&semi;t care what others think&comma; she said&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>To me&comma; you&rsquo&semi;re a kindhearted man who made me feel better by listening to my worries&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Your appearance and status are the least that matters&comma; Jeffrey&period; You shouldn&rsquo&semi;t let people judge you like that&period; You deserve to be respected&comma; all right&quest;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Jeffrey nodded&comma; tears welling up in his eyes&period; As they reached her home&comma; Lorraine offered Jeffrey to spend the night at her house and sleep in the guest room&period; But he refused&comma; saying he didn&rsquo&semi;t want to trouble her unnecessarily&period; Instead&comma; he thanked her and and left&period; He&rsquo&semi;s such a kind soul&comma; Lorraine thought as she saw him walk away&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>I should have asked him about his worries too&period; How could I be so self centered&quest; I hope we meet again&comma; Jeffrey&period; I really do&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>That night&comma; her fears crept back into her head as she sat at home alone&period; She couldn&rsquo&semi;t shake the fact that she was jobless and cried herself to sleep due to all the anxiety and worry&period; The next morning&comma; she woke up to the sound of her doorbell&period; She hurriedly threw on a sweater and rushed to answer the door&period; She opened the door and found a man in a suit standing in her doorway and a limo parked outside her house&period; Good morning&comma; man&comma; said the man&period; My name&rsquo&semi;s Stewart and I&rsquo&semi;ll be your valet for the day&period; My boss is looking forward to seeing you&period; Lorraine looked at him from head to toe and side&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>And I guess you&rsquo&semi;re at the wrong address&comma; Mr&period; Stewart&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>I&rsquo&semi;m afraid I&rsquo&semi;m not&comma; ma&rsquo&semi;am&comma; he said&period; Aren&rsquo&semi;t you&comma; Lorraine Simpson&quest; At this point&comma; Lorraine was utterly confused&period; She clearly didn&rsquo&semi;t know anyone who would send a limo to pick her up&comma; but she wanted to get to the bottom of this&comma; so she got ready quickly and decided to go with the man&period; Fearing the worst&comma; she had 911 typed on her phone and it was only a click away&period; What was the when the car pulled up at one of the town&rsquo&semi;s most prestigious medical clinics and she met the owner&comma; she knew it wasn&rsquo&semi;t necessary&period; Stewart worked for none other than Jeffrey&period; How different and elegant Jeffrey looked in his suit&comma; she thought&comma; as Stewart opened the car door for her and she got down&period; Jeffrey explained he was a psychologist who disguised as a homeless man as part of a sociological experiment for his research&period; When he met Lorraine&comma; he saw the fire in her eyes and decided to hire her&period; People know who I am&comma; he explained&period; You see&comma; fame has&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Its drawbacks&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>If I approached them as a doctor&comma; they wouldn&rsquo&semi;t be honest with me and my experiment would fail so this was the only option&period; He offered Lorraine a job and hired her&period; Lorraine was beyond grateful to him and couldn&rsquo&semi;t believe how well things unfolded for her&period; But then they say that kindness never goes unrewarded&period; Perhaps this was the world&rsquo&semi;s way of rewarding the kindness Lorraine showed to a homeless man&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;
