She saw a homeless man collecting change on the side of the road while she was at Dunkin’ Donuts. He soon entered and started counting his cash. He was really unhappy when she started talking to him.
She decided to offer to buy him a coffee and bagel out of her own pocket in exchange for his willingness to sit and speak because he only had around a dollar in change. He gave in. They spoke for well over an hour before she realized she had to return to class. At that time, he gave her a message and told her to wait.
