He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly. I wish, the boy went on, that I could be a brother like that.

After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house? Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. Will you stop where those two steps are? the boy asked. He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled ( 残疾 ) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.
