The sudden screech of tires to my left interrupts my jogging, making me reflexively turn my head toward the sound, so when my foot hits a patch of ice on the sidewalk, I don’t see it coming.

“Ooof!”

I hit the ground mid-step, hard, and my right arm takes the brunt of the impact. Ow.

“Are you all right?”

A kind, well-dressed older man is walking around a black sedan to crouch beside me, his breath puffing out in soft wisps from the bitter cold.

“I don’t know.” I lift my arm and see that my long-sleeved thermal jacket is ripped open. Blood is already dripping from a two-inch gash showing through the brand new hole.

“Oh my.” He holds out a hand with a smile on his kind face. “Here, let’s clean you up.” The man helps me to my feet and leads me to a battered metal door off-centered in a non-descript brick building that says GYM across it in red lettering.

Everything I was taught about strangers as a child comes rushing back. I don’t know this man and this place looks a little rougher than I’m accustomed to. Digging in my pocket, I pull out a napkin and show it to him.

“No worries. I’m okay. I can just use this.”

He chuckles at my sad attempt to refuse his kindness and gracefully plucks the napkin from my hand.
