I walked through the market for diapers (纸尿布), the thing we needed the most; they were the first thing I 1 . My one-year-old son, who was admiring everything on the shelves with his mouth open and eyes wide,was pretty 2 about anything. Suddenly, he pointed at a bunch of bananas and 3 .
"Nanas!"
I pulled out my wallet only to find the lonely bills: a five and two ones, with no coins. If the bananas didn't weigh too much, I had just enough cash to 4 the cost. Otherwise, I had to write another cheque. I still 5 the bananas, happy to see the smile on my son's face. He tried to open one, but I told him, "Not yet," and he waited patiently.
The total 6 came to $7.87. I gave the cashier the seven dollars in cash and started writing a 7 for the only eighty-seven cents. It was hard, and a little 8 .
It was already halfway written, while a 9 came. "Don't worry." I looked up at the lady who reached 10 out of her purse and handed it to the cashier. "I've got some 11 ."
Trying my best to 12 tears, I said, "Thank you so much."
I'll never forget that day, 13 the beautiful woman showed me what real 14 was, the kind of giving with love behind it. And I, 15 , will do the same. Whenever I have change and anyone in front of me in line is in need, I make sure to dig into my purse and provide.
