I told her it was OK for her to wish him a happy birthday. He    39   was spending this special day alone.
At first she was    40   and decided against it. As I was    41   our plates into the dustbin she turned to him and quietly    42   him a Happy Birthday. I could tell he was    43   by the way he looked at her. I    44   behind her and gave him my own wishes. He was grateful.
   45   we walked away he called my daughter back and    46   her a brand-new gold $1 coin. She thanked him. But that wasn't enough for him. He    47   his pocket and at that I kindly told him that wasn't    48  . He ignored me and    49   out an envelope with about a dozen of a different kind of gold coins.
