Every fast-food employee knows that the drive-through window is the worst position. The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your ? ; your words are lost in the howling wind.

On a ? ? ? afternoon, everything changed.

Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal a ? ? ? windows shut. Drivers don’t exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold,? ? ? their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats. In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees.

This woman was ? ? ? .

“I’ll get the next car’s ? ? ? as well,” she said as she came up to the window to pay. She stood outside, ? ? ? much snow on her hair. Though she was obviously freezing, her bright ? ? ? lit up her face like a fire.

“You can’t ? ? ? their drinks,” I said, confused and tired.

“No, but I’ll buy them,” she said. “Pay it forward and all that.”

Completely puzzled, I charged her as ? ? ? , and when the next customer arrived at the window I explained what had just happened. I watched as his ? ? ?? changed — first angry to be out in the cold, then? ? ? ? at the random act of kindness, and finally, delighted by his? ? ? .

“I suppose I’ll pay for the next order then,” he replied, nodding and waving at the impatient driver ? ? him. He ? ? ? over the cash and received his pre-paid hot drink.

The trend continued. Customers arrived annoyed, only to leave ? ? ? and pleased. Some were shocked to spend much more than they had expected, ? ? ? others ended up receiving their order for less than half the price.

Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty. No one refused to pay. Customers stood at my window ?? ? ?? a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a complete stranger. Cars drove off, honking (鸣笛) and ?? ? ?? their thanks.

It only takes one customer, one person, to change the entire ? ? ? of traffic. It only takes one moment, one smile, to warm up even the coldest of days.
