The old man walked slowly along the street. His name was Getachew. He had nobody to look after and there was nobody who looked after him. He slept in the street like many other people. He begged from passersby to earn a little money and some food.
Some people did not like him. They called him names and they chased him away because they said he was sick.

One day, when Getachew was walking down the street he heard somebody crying. He stopped and listened to find out where this sound was coming from. Then he went slowly toward the source of the sound and found a little boy who was sitting on the sidewalk between two parked cars.
Getachew kneeled down and looked at the boy.

“Tariku,” the boy answered.
“Where are your parents?”
“I am alone”, Tariku sobbed. “My parents have (...)

Getachew did not ask anymore questions. He had met many children in the streets with similar stories. Their parents had died and they had nobody to look after them. Some would walk around together day and night, searching for food. They were always alert not to be caught by the police.
“You can come with me”, Getachew said. “If you want … I will look after you.”
So it came that old Getachew and young Tariku started begging together. Tariku loved Getachew and (...)

So it came that old Getachew and young Tariku started begging together. Tariku loved Getachew and Getachew loved Tariku. They were like grandfather and grandson. Although Getachew was happy not to be alone, he never stopped thinking about how he could better help Tariku. “A child needs to go to school,” he said to himself. “A child needs a home!” And he was sad that he could not give Tariku an education and a (...)
