" 16 ," stressed the man at the counter, "we'll have a final batch ready 17 , oh, about two hours." Defeated, Carl backed away,but the young mother grabbed his arm. "You're leaving?" "I 18 ," Carl glanced at his watch. "I promised to put up luminarias (传统圣诞灯) at my church." "I'll get your order of tamales and bring them to your house." Carl's brow furrowed "I couldn't ask you to do that." "But it's 19 I can do. You lent me your coat." Her smile overrode (推翻) his objections. "Just give me your address." She and her little girl settled in for the long wait. And at 20 noon on Christmas Eve,they delivered four dozen fragrant tamales-along with Carl's brown jacket-to his home. | ||||
