One day, I was driving with my three-year-old granddaughter, Madison, when I saw a1reading "Friendly Upholstery(室内装潢品)" It was a small2.
When I parked my car and walked inside, the gentleman was3, so I began to4Madison what they built in such a place. As we were walking around, I5to tell him to take his6as I was in no hurry.
When he7his call, I began to8I had a wooden shelf in my home office that extended out from my desk and that9my granddaughter would strike her head. I needed something soft to10the shelf to protect her.
"She's a pretty little thing 
" he said11, reaching out to make her laugh.
I stood watching as he headed off to a back room. Minutes later, he returned12a piece of leather. I took it and13how much it would be." How much do I14you?" "Don't worry about it," he told me, as he waved his hand15.
After thanking him, we drove home, where I covered the shelf with the leather. It was less than an hour later when Madison slipped off my desk, hitting her face directly on the side of the shelf. A bit scared, she got up, 16.
I was inspired by that gentleman's17for someone else's safety, rather than the money that he could have gotten from me, a(n)18from out of nowhere.
Last week, one year later, I returned to his small shop and19him once again. I wanted him to know that kindness is20appreciated by some, even in this day and age, and that I will forever remember it.
