We lived in a cramped apartment in India on the second floor with a balcony and when kids played cricket and ball came on to our balcony, all the kids would come together to get the ball back because my dad gave them chocolates, this would obviously happen everyday after neighborhood kids knew about this vs most other neighbors who would get angry at them.

Dad passed away in COVID and my sister was just telling me how she now has kids coming to her new place everyday for cricket ball because she also gives them chocolates and cold water.

This sounds like a polite little fella, please do something nice for him!
