主题:Bye-bye, Grandpa

点击:812 回复:3

A young woman was walking through a supermarket to
pick up a few things when she noticed an old man following
her around. Thinking nothing of it, she ignored him and
continued shopping. After she got what she wanted,
she went to the checkout line, but the old man got in front of her.
“Pardon, me,” he said, “I’m sorry if my staring at you has
made you feel uncomfortable. It’s just that you look just
like my granddaughter, who just died recently.
And I miss her very much.”
“I’m very sorry,” replied the young woman.
“Is there anything I can do for you?”
“Yes,” the old man said. “As I’m leaving, can
you say ‘Bye-bye, grandpa’ to me? It would make
me feel so much better.”
“Sure,” answered the young woman.
As the old man was leaving, she called out,
“Bye-bye, grandpa!”
When she stepped up to the checkout counter,
she saw that her total was $178.50.
“How can that be?” she asked. “I only bought a few things!”
“Your grandpa said you would pay for him,” said the clerk.

爷爷,再见
一位年轻妇女走过一家超市买一点东西,她注意到有一个老人
跟着她,她心想这没什么,就没理会,继续买东西。拿好东西以后,
她来排队结帐,那老人站在他前面。“请原谅我,”他说
“如果我盯着看你使你不舒服了,我很抱歉。这只是因为你长得像
我的孙女,她最近刚去世,我非常想念她。”
“我很遗憾,”年轻妇女说:“我能为您做什么吗?”
“是的,”老人说:“等我离开的时候,你能对我说‘爷爷,
再见’吗?这样会使我感觉好得多。”
“当然。”年轻妇女回答。
当老人离开时,她高声叫道:“爷爷,再见!”
当她走到结账台时,看到一共是178.50[wiki]美元[/wiki]。
“怎么可能呢?”她问“我只买了一点东西!”
“你爷爷说你会给他付账的。”售货员说。

哎,我猜中了故事的开关却没猜中故事的结尾啊。原本以为是一个很温情的故事,没想到最后却是这样

呵呵,有点搞笑,但不能利用人的善良,否则,以后谁还敢叫你‘爷爷’。
