题目内容
When I was 23 years old I was in a dangerous relationship with my fiance (未婚夫) at the time. I was being physically and verbally abused(辱骂) on a daily basis. I was financially tied to him after he spent all my savings to pay his debts but I wanted to be free!
For the longest time I was too embarrassed to tell my mother about the situation. She had warned me about him. But,eventually, I worked up the courage to tell her and she sent me the money I needed to leave.
Before the money arrived he found out what I planned to do. I was so scared of what he might do,so I decided to leave all my things and just get out of there.
Then,on my way to the safety, my car died!I had automobile insurance so I called the AAA and had them pull the car to a garage. It turned out that the repair was going to cost $80. 00 and the money my mom sent hadn't arrived by that time.
The owner of the garage must have known something was up because he asked what was wrong. I told him a brief description of my story and told him I could pay him in two days.
He never told me his name but I will never forget him or what he did for me that day!He fixed the car immediately and told me he would not accept any payment―ever!He said he had a daughter almost my age and would like to think that if she ever needed help in the future then some stranger might do the same for her.
Since then I have tried to help people in my own way. Now I have a beautiful twelve-year-old daughter and I hope throughout her life she can help others and be helped when she needs it, like I was!
