The doctor handed me my medicine and said sorry to me because his register (收银机) had already closed. He asked if I would mind using the register at the front of the store. I told him not to worry and walked up front. One person was in line ahead of me, a little girl no more than seven with a bottle of medicine on the counter (柜台). She held a little green and white coin purse closely to her chest (胸口).
The purse reminded me of the days when, as a child, I liked dressing myself up in my grandma’s clothes. One day, wearing her large clothes and hat, I went out to buy something. I gave a fake(假的) dollar to the shop owner, but he handed back some real coins for my purse. “Keep the change!” he told me with a smile.
Now, with both hands shaking, the little girl pulled out a dollar bill and some coins for her medicine. As she tried to count her money, I could see right away that she was about a dollar short. Quickly, I put a dollar bill onto the counter. The child collected her change into her coin purse and ran out.
As I walked to my car, I felt a tug(用力拉) on my shirt. There was the girl, looking up at me with her big brown eyes. She gave me a smile, and put out her little hand. It was full of coins. “Thank you,” she said.
“That’s OK,” I answered, smiling. “Just keep the change!”

Well, for whatever reason, two months passed, and I had not paid the money back.
Then one day while I was busy doing my usual preflight preparations, a passenger asked me if I would him a newspaper.
I went off the airplane and walked to the same convenience store. I was too embarrassed (尴尬的) to go inside because I had never paid the money back, and I wasn’t carrying my . Then a man with a friendly face came near. he could walk past me, I stopped him and asked him for help. He smiled and said that he would do so gladly but wanted to know why I couldn’t do it . He was rather outgoing and kept saying, “Come on, and tell me.” I needed a newspaper, so I and told him.
Suddenly he said, “Hold on.” and then took me into his arms quickly and carried me into the store. With his free hand he reached into his pocket and out a five-dollar bill and said to the manager, “I’d like to pay for the socks this person owes you for and for a newspaper.”
I later learned that this big, gentle man was Rosie Grier, the former L.A. Rams and Hall of Fame football player.
