Day 17

One afternoon you saw Zoe crying because she had fallen off her bike. Then you sat by her side and started to tell her your old story about learning how to ride a bike. She was sobbing but she changed humor after telling her about how Spots had bitten you and how you had lost a piece of your favorite jeans. She got up, took her bike and asked you to support her so that she would not fall off again. You said yes but you warned her that you could not run very fast because of your walking stick. She said it was okay but once she balanced her weight in the bike she kept pedaling until you could no longer support her and set her free. You were tired and had breathing difficulties but Zoe was so thrilled that she forgot you were behind her. When she realized that nobody answered while she was talking she turned around and saw you many meters behind. She became worried because she knew about your breathing problems so she took her courage in both hands and pedaled to go back and assist you in case you were having trouble. She found you with some difficulties but you had already recovered from your breathing problem by that time. That experience made Zoe confident, so when she saw you she said, Hey grandpa! Why don't you get on? I can give you a ride.
