Jenny looked at the store window. There was nothing that she wanted more than a Happy Hannah doll. It was $29.95. Unluckily, Jenny didn’t even have the 95 cents.

As she crossed the street, she thought about doing her brother's housework, cleaning the floor, washing the dishes all month, but even then she would have only eleven dollars. Suddenly, something small and pink in the snow caught her eyes.

Jenny walked over and picked it up from the snow. It was a beautiful wallet. She opened the wallet and found many dollars and a woman’s driver’s license in it. Jenny put the wallet into her bag quickly. She turned around and walked back.

Jenny’s heart beat(跳動) fast as she went into the store. She had long dreamed about this moment, but something didn’t feel right. As she got to the Happy Hannah dolls, she pushed away her feelings. She grabbed(抓起) one and walked toward the checkout.

As Jenny was waiting to pay, her mobile phone rang. It was her grandma. Jenny’s heart was suddenly filled with love and warmth when she thought of her. She put the doll down and answered the phone.

“Hi, Grandma? I’m going to be a little bit late tonight...Alright...I love you, too.” Jenny left the store and walked all the way to 301 West Street. The woman who answered the door looked sad.

“Here, I found this in the snow,” Jenny said.

“Oh, good God! This is the money for the orphanage(孤兒院)! Thank you!”
