A delivery man stopped traffic and helped a penniless old man cross the road, only to discover a brand new car in his garage the next day. He couldn’t even believe who had brought it and why.
People think being a delivery person is easy, but it’s more complex than anyone can imagine, although Harry always did his best. He didn’t have a car. He used his scooter to deliver orders from a food ordering app, and usually, it was great.
Riding a few distances was not that hard, but things always got a little dicier when he had to cross the highway, mainly because it was snowing every once in a while this season.
