A cute boy and a nice old man

This is somewhere along the roadside at Mount Vernon Road. It’s my first time coming to this part of Singapore and I happened to observe something rather insignificant but yet heart-warming.
An old man was selling ice cream outside Maris Stella High and two primary school kids came along to buy some ice cream. In a while, they headed back and one of the kid told the old man: "Uncle, 我要再买一个,我的ice cream掉了。" If I’m not wrong, the old man gave him another scoop of ice cream for free. The kid said "Uncle 谢谢" in a tone full of gratitude.
What a cute boy and a nice old man. And I couldn't help smiling to myself as I looked at them.
Shouldn't life be like this?
