The empty space

Every evening Mr.Ade sat at the same chair 


Same chair 


Same coffee cup


Same magazine folded beside him 


But there was always one empty space beside him 


One day his nephew asked him 


Uncle who does this chair belong to 


Mr Ade smiled and replied 


It belonged to the best person I ever knew


So his nephew asked where is the person now 


Mr Ade looked drops his head for a moment and said 


Gone 


The boy was looking for an explanation but he didn't 


Instead he picked up his coffee cup and started sipping it 


The next evening the boy returned 


This time he brought his own chair 


He placed it beside Mr Ade 


You can use mine he said 


Mr Ade laughed 


From that evening the two began sitting together 


They talked football school and the society even things that doesn't matter 


Months passed 


Then the boy noticed that empty chair was gone 


He asked Uncle where did u put it 


And Mr Ade said I don't need it anymore 


Sometimes people don't need someone to fix their problems 


They need someone to sit beside them 


Never underestimate the power of being there for someone
