It was a sunny day, and as a routine for years, I was shopping at my local supermarket. On that particular day, I had done about 2 weeks worth of shopping and ________ toward the counter to pay for my groceries.

I ________ into my back right pocket to grab the money to pay and noticed that there was no money there. I started to get ________ . I knew my purse was in the car and I was sure I had put the ________ in my back right pocket. I looked at the cashier with wet eyes and a ________ 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 ________ and said, “Really? It’s ________. No one would hand that in!” But she ________ me to. “You never know…” she said.

I decided that there was no ________ in checking, so I walked up to a woman behind the counter and said, “ I have to ask, did anyone ________ cash by any chance?” She asked, “How much?” My face then ________ . “ $200 in the form of one hundred dollar bills.” I replied. She said, “________ , yes, someone did!” I was so________ ! “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 ________ ”. I said, “I know, I wanted to thank you both, ________ 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 ________ me tickets to the circus. He handed me 5 tickets. Almost ________ that young girl’s face appeared 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.
