Ben was surprised the following day when Benny, holding the baseball, said “good morning” to him. “Hi, Dad,” Ben replied.
Ben and Benny are a father and son who do not spend much time together. Ben was disappointed that Benny did not like to communicate. One bright summer day they went to a local ball game since Benny enjoyed watching baseball. A foul ball was hit in their direction and though Ben thought he could easily catch the ball, he left it for Benny so they could have something to talk about. Benny caught the ball but didn’t say anything.
Ben was surprised the following day when Benny, holding the baseball, said “good morning” to him. “Hi, Dad,” Ben replied.
