Ice-cream's story

Posted by tengzz11 at 9:41 AM

~Sometime ago, when the ice-cream were not so expensive, a ten years old boy went to an ice-cream par lour. While sitting at the table, he asked the waitress, “How much does a Sundae cost?" "50cents", she replied. The boy took out his money from the pocket and began counting it. "Well, how much does a simple ice-cream cost?" There were other people waiting to be served, so the waitress began to get a little impatient. "35cents!" she replied abruptly. The boy counted his money again and said: “Please give me a Simple ice-cream." The waitress served him the
Ice-cream and his bill. The boy ate his ice-cream, paid his bill at the cash counter and left. When the waitress went to clean the table she began to cry...for there, in the corner of the plate, were 15cents...her tip. The boy took a Simple ice-cream instead of a Sundae so he could leave a tip for her.~

This is one of a short story which I got it from my manager and I think is it an interesting and touch short story. This is a good lesson for us to learn in our life. Actually the boy choose to buy a Sundae ice-cream and he wanted to choose a cheaper one which cost him 35cents instead of the 50cents but the waiter was impatient to attend to him as well as being rude just because the boy wanted a much more cheaper Sundae ice-cream. At last, while the waiter was cleaning up the table, the waiter found 15cents tips left there and the waiter felt bad that treated him abruptly. How many children like a 10 year old boy can think such thing where save up the 15cents for tips to the waiter? And he is just a ten year old boy but he managed to think like an adult. I think we should learn from the boy. At last the waitress felt regret that just now she treated the boy so rude but it already too late.
