As I got off the bus in Chan May

As I got off the bus in Chan May, there was an old man in raggedy clothes and worn-out sandals sitting next to a rickety bicycle,an empty water bottle in the basket.
He was not begging,just looking hopefully at  passers-by.I only had 10 000 dong left and two t-shirt,so I took off my Skechers and handed them with the clothing and the cash to the man.10 000 seems a large amount,but in Vietnamese currency it is a paltry sum.I looked back at the man, sneakers on his feet.I am size 4,he must have had small feet for a man, but then he was a small man.
