A supervisor of a fast food chain in Marikina City was lauded by the online community for providing a full meal to an elderly individual who had only asked for water.
Facebook user Drew Buena shared a heartwarming encounter while eating in a branch of Jollibee at Riverbanks North Triangle in Marikina on June 20.
According to him, an elderly man approached the counter and asked for water.
“Uhaw na uhaw talaga siya,” Buena said.
He said the man had two glasses of water.
The man was then asked by the supervisor if he had already eaten.
Buena said the man was given two pieces of chicken — one original and one spicy, and two pieces of rice.
“Talagang gutom na gutom siya kasi tinitingnan ko habang kumakain, pero ‘di ako nagpahalata, baka mailang. Naubos niya ang dalawang rice at dalawang chimken. Isang spicy at hindi spicy na chimken,” he wrote on a Facebook post.
Buena said his heart “melted” at the incident.
“It does not cost anything to be kind. It is what a good heart does for free. Kindness can really go a long way and it is the most important quality in a human being. Kindness really is a virtue,” he said.
