Doing The Right Thing


The sun beat down on the parking lot.  A young woman, her t-shirt sticking to her back climbed out of her worn, twenty-year-old car.  This stop at the grocery store would be her only respite from the heat.

She walked toward the doors, her last few dollars in her pocket.

Near the cart corral she spotted a wallet.  She picked it up.  Inside were several hundred-dollar bills.  She sighed, took the wallet inside and turned it in.

At the counter was a young man inquiring about a wallet.  In gratitude he offered her an award, then asked her out.
