题目内容
When I was 10, my father lost his work. My mother was dispirited. I decided to make her happy by buying her a special Mother's Day gift.
One day after school, I rode my bike to the Agins. It was a popular shop because of its high-end fashions and style. I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins, the shopkeeper, and told her I was looking for a Mother's Day present.
I was a child but she treated me like an important person. She asked "What does your mother want?" I told her I wasn't sure. After walking around the store for a few minutes, she came with a box. She opened it and there was a yellow Italian purse made of soft leather.
"What about this purse? I think your mother will like it. How much money do you have?" she asked. "Twelve dollars," I said. "You're lucky, "she told me. "It's enough. You can have a dollar left for a card.“
She gift-wrapped the purse and gave it to me. I rode my bike with the package under my arm. It wasn't until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth 300 dollars. I always felt bad that I never had a chance to thank her. How wonderful Sylvia Agins was to me. Letting me have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough. I'll never forget her and her kindness.
