The little boy turned to the old woman next to him, ‘‘Granny, are you sure I don’t have enough money?’’ She nodded. The little boy was still1the doll (洋娃娃) in his hand.
I walked toward him,2who he wished to give this doll to. “Sister. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring a doll to her.” I told him that maybe Santa Claus would do so. But he replied to me3. “No, Santa Claus(圣诞老人) can’t bring it to her4she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she5there. My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too,6I thought she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.’’
The little boy looked7at me, “I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall. I8she didn’t have to leave me, but Daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.” Then he looked9at the doll with sad eyes.
I quickly10for my wallet. “Let’s check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll!” “OK. I hope I do have enough.” I added some of my money to11without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and12some spare money. “Thank you God for giving me enough money!” He looked at me and13, “I wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my Mommy, but I didn’t dare to ask God14too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses.”
15I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, mentioning a drunk man in a truck hit a car16by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl17right away and the mother was 18in a critical state.
Two days19this encounter (偶然相遇) with the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the young20had passed away.
