Faith takes the train
Augustine, Kesi, author.
On the train ride home from Grandma's house, Faith pulls out a peanut butter sandwich ("gooey with honey from Grandma's beehive") and enjoys a sweet bite. Then a man named Isaiah who's fallen on hard times asks if anyone can spare some change. Faith recognizes him. Everyone looks away from him, silent. Faith catches his eye, peanut butter still sticking to the child's teeth. Heart thumping, Faith offers him the last of the sandwich. He enjoys it tremendously. As they leave the train, Faith wonders what kind of peanut butter Isaiah likes.
