You are at home one evening and get a buzz from an acquaintance at a gate, and you casually let him in. When you go out to meet him, you can see that he is in distress but you don’t know why.
Without wasting any time, he tells you that he and his family need a roof over their head for a week, as they have been evicted from a place they used to stay in and they can only move into a new place a week later. Thinking this is a joke; you go towards his car and can see that his wife, children and their baggage – probably clothes, are in the car.
You have asked all the relevant questions, and you don’t have a reason not to believe that he is not telling the truth. And they do not have money to book into a hotel, which is why he came to you for help.
Your husband is not around, so you can’t discuss with him what to do and it is getting late.
Right at that moment when he is looking at you and the kids and wife’s eyes are screaming at you to help, what will you do?
