It’s an extraordinary experience happening on me. I never imagine that one person could be so different at different times. How these two people could be actually a same one?

 

I worked at a small company. But a few days ago, I was fired just because I always was late for work. But it was not my fault. The company was too far away from my home.

I was depressed and walked on the street along. Suddenly I heard someone screaming:” Catch that guy, he didn’t pay me t for dinner.” And I saw a young man passed by. I knew it’s he who wanted to eat without paying, so I ran after him. In the same time, the old lady ran after me. All of sudden, a car showed up in front of me and I just jumped over it and fell. I was badly hurt and couldn’t manage to move. The owner of the car came out and asked me if I was Ok. I was astonished on seeing her. She was such a beauty. I smiled to her and said that I was OK. Then the old lady caught up with me. I thought there must be something wrong with her eyes or with her mind. She said it was me who didn’t pay after eating at her restaurant. I tried to explain that I was the one who tried to help her. But she seemed to be too stubborn and was sure about her own opinion. How could you make yourself clear before an old lady? So I gave up explaining and was about to pay for the bill. Embarrassingly, I couldn’t find a cent in my pocket I picked all the pockets in my clothes but it was useless. I did have no money after being fired. The beautiful girl seemed to realize my embarrassment. She turned to the old lady and asked how much I owned her and then she paid the bill for me, for the guy who had already run away actually.

Then the girl got into her car and drove away. The old lady said to me that you couldn’t be able to pay the dinner but she manages to have her own car. Why was there so big difference between young people? I didn’t answer. May be she was right. I was useless. But I hoped to see the girl again.
