              "Willie, I overheard everyone in the office talking

              about not having money for lunch. I wanted to help

              give you some money so you can eat." She reached

              down in her pocket and pulled out a $5 bill and said,
              "this is for you to eat, and you don't have to pay it


              back." I was shocked! I told her, "Thank you!" She
              said, "No, problem. That's what friends are for." I

                 Me: "OK, what's on your mind?"

                 Ashanti: "Dad, my friend is not eating at school."

                 Me: "Why is she not eating?"


                 Ashanti: "I don't know."
