Tyler, a kind-hearted boy, wanted to help his hospitalized grandma, Martha, recover. Remembering her saying, “Food is like medicine,” he decided to buy fruits with the 50 cents he’d earned solving her riddles.
At the grocery store, Tyler filled his basket with fruits, handed over his piggy bank, and asked the cashier, Stella, if $42.50 was enough. Learning he was $14 short, Stella offered the fruits for free, but Tyler insisted on earning them. He proposed a riddle instead: “What is always in front of us but can’t be seen?”
When Stella couldn’t solve it, Tyler revealed the answer: “The future!” Smiling, she handed over the fruits. Tyler rushed to the hospital, delighted to surprise his grandma.
Later, Stella visited the hospital. Moved by Tyler’s love and humility, she covered Martha’s medical expenses and promised Tyler a weekly fruit bag.
As she left, Stella fondly remembered her own grandma’s riddles and revealed she had let Tyler win—the riddle was the last one her grandma ever asked her.
