I was shopping at my local supermarket, as I normally have for years. One particular day, I had done about 2 weeks worth of shopping and
31 toward the register to pay for what I bought. After the cashier had scanned my items and I had bagged them up, she stated that the
32 was $150.
I
33 into my back right pocket to take the money to pay and noticed that there was no money there. I started to get
34 . I knew my purse was in the car and I was sure I had put the
35 in my back right pocket. I looked at the cashier with wet eyes and a
36 look not knowing what to do. There were people behind me on the line. She told me to speak with the courtesy counter (爱心柜台). I
37 and said, “Really? It's
38 , no one would hand that in!” But she
39 me to. “You never know…” she said.
I decided that there was no
40 in checking so I walked up to a woman behind the counter and said “I have to ask, did anyone 41 cash by any chance?” She asked “How much?” My face then
42 . “$200 in the form of one hundred dollar bills.” I replied. She said, “
43 , yes, someone did!” I was so
44 ! “Who? I want to thank her.” She pointed to a young girl about 10 years old and said, “She did.”
I walked over to the mom and hugged her. She said, “It wasn't me, it was my
45 ” . I said “I know, I wanted to thank you both,
46 she found it ... it's because of you that I got this back.” I was so happy. I was almost in tears.
The next day at work, a person in another department
47 me tickets to the circus. He handed me 5 tickets. Almost
48 that young girl’s face popped (突然出现) in my head. After work I went back to the supermarket and stopped at the courtesy counter and asked if she had any idea who that woman was. She smiled and said, “Yes, She is a friend of mine”. Then I asked her to do me a favor and pass along these 5 tickets to her.
She told me that the family of the little girl who found my money were not rich so they would really
49 this. She also said that they had 3 children, so five was the
50 number of tickets!
