Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a lovely boy was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, sir?” he asked.

Paul answered. “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it did cost you nothing? Sir, I wish…”

Of course Paul knew what the boy wanted, but what the boy said surprised him greatly. “I wish that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, and then he said, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?”

“Oh. yes. I’d love to.” The boy answered.

After a short ride, the boy said, “sir, would you mind stopping in front of my house?”

Paul smiled a little. He thought the boy wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again, “Will you stop where those two stairs are?” the boy asked.

He went up to the stairs. Then in a short while he was carrying his little crippled(残疾的)brother.

“There he is. Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a dollar. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it. Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”

Paul got out and lifted Buddy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed elder brother climbed in behind him and the three began an unforgettable holiday ride.
