It was freezing. My friend and I went out to a fast food restaurant. We were standing in line, waiting to be 37 , when all of a sudden people around us began to back away from their position.
As I 38 I smelt a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men. As I looked down at the short gentleman close to me, he was smiling and his nice sky – blue eyes searched for 39 .
