it was during a weekend. mum gave me two tickets for a film and told me she was too busy with the endless housework to go with me . she told me to keep the money if i could sell the etra ticket. i was very happy, of course . at that time , a ticket only cost 20 fen . but to me, a little girl of 12,20 fen seemed quite a lot.
i reached the cinema in a great hurry. holding the ticket in my hand, i began to look for a buyer. a handsome young man noticed me and the ticket in my hand. he came towards me with a big smile, “you＇ve got an etra ticket?”
“yes,”i nodded .
“that＇s great . say , how much?”
“twenty fen.”
“ oh ,”he thought for a while and then took out a ten-yuan note from his wallet.
“i＇m very sorry, but i＇ve only got this note.” seeing i was confused① , he added, “then, how about waiting for a while and i＇ll give you the money after i have changed it in the cinema＇s store?”
without much thinking, i agreed. then we went to the cinema together. he walked fast. i could hardly keep up with him. by and by, he left me further and further behind. soon he disappeared in the gents②. i stood there without knowing what to do. suddenly i seemed to realize the handsome young fellow had cheated me. he had saved twenty fen, but lost his honour.
