💔 “The little boy kept reducing the price of the bananas… because he just wanted to go home.”

It happened one evening beside the roadside market.

A small boy was standing there with a tray of bananas almost bigger than him.

Cars passed.

People passed.

But nobody was buying.

At first, he was shouting normally like every other seller.

“Sweet banana! Sweet banana!”

But as it started getting late…

his voice changed.

You could hear tiredness inside it.

Then suddenly he started saying:

“Abeg buy am cheap… I wan go house.”

That line touched me immediately.

One woman asked him:

“Why you dey rush go house?”

The boy answered quietly:

“My mama sick… na only me dey with her.”

💔

People around became quiet small.

But what broke everybody completely was what happened next.

The woman asked:

“Your papa nko?”

The boy looked down for some seconds before replying:

“Him don die since.”

Silence.

Real silence.

The boy continued trying to sell quickly.

Not because he wanted profit.

Not because he wanted enjoyment.

He just wanted to buy drugs and go back home before his sick mother slept hungry again.

One man finally bought all the remaining bananas for him.

The boy became so happy immediately.

But instead of leaving first.

he removed two bananas from the nylon and said:

“Uncle thank you… collect this one.”

💔

Imagine having almost nothing…

and still trying to give from the little you have.

That moment humbled everybody there.

Because sometimes the kindest hearts come from people suffering the most.

May God help people struggling quietly for their families ❤️
