He was just a tired construction worker walking home with dust on his boots and hunger in his stomach.
She was just a waitress, shaking on the pavement outside a fancy restaurant, her arm burned, her job gone, her life falling apart.
Everyone had watched her be humiliated.
Everyone had watched her get fired.

And how did one night of kindness turn a broke construction worker into the man everyone in the village now whispers about?
