One day, I saw a boy shop alone at the shop where I worked. He chose some school things he wanted and went to the checkout (付款台).

The young shop assistant (店员) told him he needed to pay $37.60. The boy became very sad (伤心的) and said he only had $20. He took out one thing at a time, and at last he got down to his $20. With eyes full of tears, he asked if he could call his mom to get him home. When he got through, it sounded like his mom was too busy to arrive at once.

He tried not to cry and walked outside to sit on the chair in front of the shop. This was too much for the young assistant. She kept looking outside to see if the boy was all right. Then she said, “I wish I could pay for the rest of his things.” One of the other girls said she had a few dollars. Then two others said they could help, too.

These four young girls pooled their money and found they had more than enough to pay for the boy’s things. Then they chose more school things, and gave them all to the boy. The boy laughed happily. His mom arrived much later, but he didn’t just run to the car; he ran back into the shop and called out, “Thank you!”

I was so proud (骄傲的) of my team that day. They did something wonderful for that boy and also found the happiness of giving.
