After the lady finished her meal, and the waitress went to get her change from a hundred dollar bill, the lady slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the waitress came back. She wondered where the lady could be, and then she noticed something written on a napkin. There were tears in her eyes, when she read what the lady wrote. It said, "You don't owe me a thing, I've been there too. Someone once helped me out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here's what you do.

With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard. She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, "Everything's gonna be all right. I love you, Joe.

喔，桌子要清理，糖罐要加满，客人要服务，但是女服务员有应付过了一天。那天下班回到家里，躺在床上时，他想着这笔钱，想着老太太写的话。老太太怎么知道她和她的丈夫继续这笔钱呢？下个月孩 子就要出生，日子越来越艰难了。她知道她的丈夫有多担心，她在他旁边躺了下来，轻轻地吻了吻他，小声地说：“一切都会好的，我爱你，比尔。”
