“Oh, just an ice cream, ” the man told him. Then he said to the waiter, “I’m just going out to buy a newspaper.”
He left the restaurant. The waiter gave the boy an ice cream. The boy ate it, and then stood up and walked to the door.
The waiter ran to him.
“Excuse me,” he said, “but your father hasn’t come back and he hasn’t paid for his meal or for your ice cream.”
“I’m sorry,” The young boy said, “He’s not my father, I don’t know who he is.”
The waiter did not understand. “What do you mean?” he asked.
“The man came up to me in the street, ” the boy said. “He asked me if I liked ice cream. I told him I did. Then he told me to come into the restaurant at 2:00pm and sit down at his table. He said he’d give me some.”
