Begging

Today was my last day of OPD in Penang General Hospital
I met two beggars
The first one spoke in Hokkien:
'Here see doctor only pay 1 Ringgit, right?'
'Yup.'
'Can you give me 1 Ringgit?'
Without hesitation, I said ' I don't bring my wallet out, you go and ask other people'
I walked away quickly
While
she walked away, too

The second one murmured in Mandarin:
'Hello, can you give me some money?'
Asking around whoever he met
I was passing by
I just pretended nothing
And
walked away quickly

Yet, I may be cruel but I had to...
Without knowing their purpose behind, I don't dare to do so..
