A short story
Quote from Forum Archives on April 10, 2000, 9:08 amPosted by: tz8cy5 <tz8cy5@...>
A woman was at work when she received a phone call that her
daughter was very sick with a fever. She left her work and
stopped by the pharmacy to get some medication for her daughter.When returning to her car she found that she had locked her keys
in the car.She was in a hurry to get home to her sick daughter, she didn't
know what to do, so she called her home and told the baby sitter
what had happened and that she did not know what to do.The baby sitter told her that her daughter was getting worse.
She said, "You might find a coat hanger and use that to open
the door." The woman looked around and found an old rusty
coat hanger that had been thrown down on the ground possibly
by someone else who at some time or other had locked their keys
in their car.Then she looked at the hanger and said, "I don't know how to use
this." So she bowed her head and asked God to send her some help.=20
Within five minutes an old rusty car pulled up, with a dirty,
greasy, bearded man who was wearing an old biker skull rag on
his head. The woman thought, "Dear God. This is what you sent
to help me????" But, she was desperate, so she was also very
thankful.The man got out of his car and asked her if he could help. She said
"Yes, my daughter is very sick. I stopped to get her some medication and I
locked my keys in my car, I must get home to her. Please, can you use
this hanger to unlock my car."He said, "SURE." He walked over to the car, and in less than one minute
the car was opened. She hugged the man and through her tears she said,
"THANK YOU SO MUCH..... You are a very nice man."The man replied, "Lady, I am not a nice man. I just got out of prison
today. I was in prison for car theft and have only been out for about
an hour."The woman hugged the man again and with sobbing tears cried out
loud....."THANK YOU, GOD, FOR SENDING ME A PROFESSIONAL!"
