One evening I was resting in a cafe. I 26 a pair of newly bought white leather shoes, which were rather expensive. Then a boy came to me.
He was in a(n) 27 shirt, looking pale and about eleven. No sooner had I begun to speak than he opened the 28 in his hand and took out the tools of shoe-polishing. He 29 down, took off my leather shoes, and began to shine them.
He was busy doing his work 30 heavy rain began to pour down. People rushed to the café for 31 from the rain. More and more people crowded 32 and gradually separated the boy from me.
Hours passed, and it turned 33 . I had no shoes on my feet and 34 where the boy had been. I thought he would not 35 my shoes, and I would have to go home on my bare feet.
When it was near midnight the 36 ended, and there were fewer and fewer people in the café. The café was to be 37 . I had to move to the door, head 38 . just as I went to the gate, I 39 found that a boy of about eleven, looking very familiar, was sleeping at the 40 with his head leaning against a box and his upper body being 41 . he held a package made of his shirt tightly in his arms.
I shook him slightly and woke him up. He 42 up and rubbed his eyes for a while before he recognized me. Then he opened the package 43 , gave me my leather shoes, and apologized to me shyly. I 44 him and wrapped him with his unfit shirt, which had wrapped my leather shoes. On my way home, the 45 of the boy stayed in my mind.
