Fifteen years ago, I made a living by driving a taxi. One time I arrived in the middle of the night for a pickup at a building that was
36 except for a single light in a ground floor window. I walked to the door and
37 .
A small woman in her 80’s opened the door. I took her suitcase to the cab then returned to
38 her into the cab. She thanked me for my kindness. When we got in the taxi, she gave me a(n)
39 , then asked, “Could you drive through
40 ?”
“It’s not the
41 way,” I answered.
“Oh, I don’t
42 ,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (臨終關(guān)懷醫(yī)院).”
I looked in the rear view mirror (后視鏡). Her eyes were glistening (閃爍).
“The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and
43 the meter (計(jì)程器). “What
44 would you like me to take?” I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator. We drove through the
45 where she and her husband had lived. Sometimes she’d ask me to
46 in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
As the sun was
47 , she suddenly said: “I’m
48 . Let’s go now.”
We drove in
49 to the address she had given me. There were people waiting for her and they put her in a wheelchair.
“How much do I
50 you?” she asked, reaching into her purse.
“Nothing,” I said.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me
51 .
“You gave an old woman a little moment of
52 ,” she said.
I squeezed her hand, then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut.
I didn’t
53 any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly,
54 in thought.
We’re used to thinking that our lives focus on great moments. But great moments often
55 us unaware.
