A Widow

Tonight I had a lady come in, sweet as can be. She sat by herself and had shared with me she was trying the “go out alone” thing. She then shared with me that she recently lost her husband and she hadn’t gone out since then. I immediately knew I was paying for her tab. Once I told her that dinner was on me and all she had to pay for was her drink, the couple she was talking to all night bought that for her too. Another kind gesture for this lady who recently lost her husband. The lady, Nancy told me that I didn’t have to do that, my response, “I know I don’t have to but I want to”. I told her I was sorry for her loss and anytime she wants to go out for dinner alone, I’ll be here and I’ll keep her company. She was delighted.
