The Neighbour Who Needed a Hand
A girl called Yusra noticed her elderly neighbour standing at the bottom of her drive, looking a bit lost, with a fallen shopping bag and tins rolling into the road. The neighbour was fine, not hurt — just struggling, a little flustered, and clearly could use a hand. Yusra hesitated. Helping felt like the obviously kind thing. But she also had a vague sense that you're supposed to be careful around people you don't know well, and she wasn't sure where "being a good neighbour" ended and "talking to a stranger" began. She didn't want to be rude by ignoring someone in need, or unsafe by getting it wrong. The tins were still rolling. The neighbour was still flustered. Yusra had to decide, quickly, what the right kind of help looked like.
