the train was going, he started bring out memories of home. How he was never to see his
mom again or how he was never to sit at a table with his dad and eat dinner again. But
somehow Dave knew this was the right thing to do, Dave believed that the only reason why
Mr. Hawkins gave such an outrageous price for that old cow was because he was an African
American. Dave wanted to start fresh somewhere may like New York, a place where he could
go to school and become a lawyer. But Dave quickly remembered how little money he had;
it was nothing but two dollars. When suddenly Dave heard the train; hoooooof-hooooof;
hoooooof-hooooof; hooooof-hoooof: quickly Dave tried looking out to see if he could of
gather any clues where he was. But found nothing, when the train stopped. Dave wanted to
leave the train the most quiet way possible so no one could see him; “I have a gun” thought
Dave.
“Excuse me man” Dave tried being as polite he could have been asked. “Do you know where
we are?”
Before answering the question, the lady sized up the young boy noticing how sweaty he was.
And is as if he was hiding from someone, “Don’t you know where we are boy?” said the old
lady.”
“No mam.” answered back Dave.
“We are in Indiana.” said the old lady
“Thank you mam.” Dave replied.
Indiana. I don’t know anything about this place, what can I do with two dollars: thought
Dave. I need to find a job and go to New York; It was when Dave came across a restaurant
that said “Help Need it” Dave hiding the gun under some stool he had seed outside the place,
and tried to clean himself as much as he could then he entered the restaurant showing a little
shyness, “I am a Man” said Dave, whispering to himself.
“Excuse me sir” said Dave; looking firm at the young man who stood firm and had a very
serious expression in his face. Almost as if he was too busy to speak with Dave.
“Yes sir, may I help you?” replied the young man.
Dave was very much surprised with the fact that this young white male had called him sir.
“No one, ever called me sir” thought Dave to himself. Dave took a deep breath and said:
“I am very sorry to bother you, but I came in about the sign outside” they
