The Right Choice
Malachi was aware that his mother would be concerned if she came downstairs to find his bed empty, and he was certain that his siblings would now tell her everything about the wallet. Yet he was aware that returning the money was the moral thing to do, and there was no way he could go back home without locating the owner of the wallet.
Looking For The Man
Malachi loved his family, but he was certain that they would try to persuade him to keep it or simply take his money. Therefore, he went on going, the ID from the wallet tucked in his hand. He walked and traveled, hungry and exhausted, comparing the faces of those he passed with the ID. Yet, none of them resembled the elderly man in the picture.
