Single father lost his job for helping an elderly woman… without imagining that his granddaughter was a millionaire…

Fired, without explanation. The boss wouldn’t accept his apology for the third time he was late.

What no one knew was that he was in the parking lot helping an elderly woman whose wheelchair had gotten stuck.

His granddaughter was a millionaire.

When he discovered the reason for his dismissal, everything changed.

“Please wait here. Don’t move. I’ll be back in 5 minutes, Grandma,” Patricia said as she ran out of the parked car.

The elderly woman nodded from her wheelchair, watching as her granddaughter disappeared through the supermarket doors. The morning sun was already beating down, and the parking lot was beginning to fill with vehicles and hurried people going in and out of the store.

“Late again.”

“I’m late again.” “This can’t go on!” someone shouted in the distance. Luis ran between the cars, his heart pounding and his hands trembling, desperately searching for his uniform keys. He knew exactly what awaited him.

It wasn’t the first or second time. It was the third time in a row he’d arrived late. And Don Joaquín, the manager, had been very clear the last time. “Luis, come here immediately!” the furious voice boomed from the supermarket entrance, but at that precise moment, something stopped his desperate sprint.

A metallic sound, a soft groan, almost imperceptible amid the noise of the parking lot.

Luis turned his head and saw the elderly woman trying to move her wheelchair, which seemed to be stuck on a small rise in the asphalt.

Her hands trembled with the effort, and her face showed a mixture of exhaustion and worry.

“Ma’am, let me help you,” Luis said.

Without thinking, completely forgetting the voice that had called him. “Oh, son, thank you. This chair is stuck and I can’t move it. My granddaughter went into the supermarket a little while ago and I’m stuck here in the sun,” the old woman replied weakly. Luis knelt beside the chair, examining the wheels.
They were completely stuck in a crack in the pavement.
Carefully and gently, he began to maneuver the chair, first to one side, then to the other, until he finally managed to free it.

The old woman’s hands were trembling, not only from the effort, but from something deeper. “It’s alright, ma’am. You look very tired. Let me take you to the shade,” Luis offered with genuine concern. “You’re very kind, son. I’ve been waiting here for more than 15 minutes. The sun is very strong and I don’t have the same stamina as before,” the old woman confessed as Luis carefully pushed the chair toward a shaded area near the entrance. “You’ll be more comfortable here.”

She needs water.

Can I get her some?

No, son, you’ve done enough.

God bless you for your kindness.

Not every young person these days would stop to help an elderly stranger.

I was starting to think I’d have to stay here until Patricia got back.

Patricia is your granddaughter, isn’t she?

Don’t worry.

I’m sure she’ll be back soon.

I’ll stay here with you until she arrives, Luis replied, completely forgetting his work situation.

No, son, I heard they were calling you.

I don’t want you to get in trouble because of me.

You’ve helped me enough.

Don’t worry about it, ma’am.

The important thing now is that you’re okay.

My work can wait.

Luis lied, knowing perfectly well that his work couldn’t wait any longer.

The old woman’s eyes welled up with tears. It had been a long time since I’d seen such selfless kindness in my world, where people generally approached my family out of self-interest. Finding someone like this was extraordinary.

“What’s your name, son?”

“Luis, ma’am.”

Fired, no explanation given. The boss wouldn’t accept his apology for the third tardiness. What no one knew was that he was in the parking lot helping an elderly woman whose wheelchair was stuck. His granddaughter was a millionaire. When he discovered the reason for his dismissal, everything changed.
