Every time Jim crossed the street on his way to work, he would see a little girl selling flowers on the street. She sat by a large green board with the names of the flowers and their prices on it. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her, and she rarely sold anything. Jim wanted to help her, and one day he got his chance. His aunt would retire, and he thought a bouquet (花束) would be a great gift.
"Hello, could you please make me a bouquet of roses?" Jim said as he approached the girl.
The girl didn't raise her head and just stared at the same spot on the ground. "I'm Cassy. Thank you for buying flowers from me," she said. "Could you please select the flowers by yourself and give them to me? I will tie them together for you. I can't see. "
"Oh, I'm sorry," Jim said as he picked the flowers and handed them to her. Within several seconds, the girl made a lovely bouquet for Jim.
"Here," she said, holding the bouquet. "That'll be $5."
"Thanks. They're beautiful," Jim said and walked away after placing the money in the hat beside Cassy.
The next day, Jim went to work and he decided to have a quick talk with Cassy on the way. However, he didn't see Cassy where she used to be that morning. He thought she might be late and decided to meet her the next day, but she didn't show up for the next few days in a row (连续地).
Jim was concerned about Cassy, wondering if something bad had happened to Cassy. Surprisingly, he finally met Cassy again on the street with her flowers.
Para 1: Jim was so delighted to see Cassy that he ran to her at once.
Para 2: Jim then drove Cassy to her home, where he met her sick mother, Jade.
