Jenny had heard it all from her sister, Dora, a psychology major in college.
"Do you know people always expect others to do the right thing?" Dora once asked. "I mean-not even when they could easily
help someone."
"I won't do that," Jenny had replied then, brushing off Dora's piece of information. "You always try to scare me!"
She would still disregard Dora's theory, but now she had witnessed something that helped change her mind. That morning,
she had just gotten out of the car and was walking toward the classroom building. It was the summer that Texas saw a lot of rain.
Jenny was trying to balance the umbrella, her iPod, and her lunchbox when she slipped and fell. Down went the iPod into a
puddle and out came the books from her backpack. Just when she thought the mess could not get worse, the heels of her shoes
broke while the umbrella blew away with the wind. That was when Jenny realized she was going to be late to class. Others who
were also running late swiftly walked passed by without noticing her ordeal. Nobody even paused. "Wish at least one of you were
a Good Samaritan," Jenny exclaimed with a sigh. That was when she saw a little pair of little hands lifting her belongings from the
mud
