It was a cold winter's night when I stopped for gas on my way home from work. I was tired and had a slight(轻微的)1.
I worked in a busy doctor's office. This was one of those days when the office was often2people who had a cold, which made me3busier than before. It seemed I was going to be late4home and my husband would be ready to pronounce me late once again. Maybe5I hurried, I could still make it home.
I was heading inside to pay for my gas when I noticed an old couple at the counter. I heard them asking the6to the local hospital. It was exactly the same hospital that I had just left a few7ago. The young man at the counter was trying to be8in explaining how to get there, but the fact was that it was a whole wrong route back. It was then that I walked over to the couple and said, "Would you like to follow me to the9?"
A look of10crossed the woman's face. She stared at me, seeming to be in relief(如释重负)but still trying to figure out why I, a stranger, offered them help at such a late time.
"I'm going right there," I explained, which wasn't a(an)11because T had just made up my12to do that.
I got in my car and began to drive13. I was trying to watch to be sure they were right14me. It took only fifteen minutes to get there as rush hour traffic was beginning to15. I felt better than I had all day and my headache was nearly gone.
