I took by bother out for breakfast yesterday. It was a rainy day, and I got a good parking space in the parking lot where he didn't have to walk alot. When we sat down to have breakfast, I noticed that my reading glasses were no longer in my pocket where I had put them.
I mentioned to my brother that I had misplaced my glasses and was going back to the car to look for them He told me that they were not in the car because he had noticed they had dropped out of my pocket onto the ground.
I asked him why he didn't tell me when he saw the event take place. He gave me a very blank look.
This is not the first time something like this has happened. I think it is part of my brother's autism, he just never would occur to him that he should have told me. Anyway I went back out to look for my glasses and got my pants all wet when I got down on my hands and knees to look for them to see if they were under the car. No glasses.
When we left, I pulled the car straight out so in case they were there so I wouldn't crush them. Mind you, this is a very busy parking lot and there was already a big black SUB inpatiently waiting for me as I slowly backed up, anxiously looking for the glasses. No glasses.
But all of a sudden, my brother said, "They're right there". And they were. With my eyesight, I would have never seen them. But he did. Redeemed!
