So I ran into a McDonald’s which was in the same plaza and asked the man at the counter,who happened to be the manager,to call me a cab.I briefly explained my situation to him,and I could tell that he empathized with me from his expression.He hurried to the back to use the phone while I was waiting.I had less than 10 minutes to get back to my school at this point.
The manager returned only to tell me that the cab company had put him on hold and then the line got disconnected.My expression,I assume,began to resemble some combination of hopelessness and fear.
Without a second thought,he grabbed his coat and offered to drive me to the school.Without hesitation,I followed him into his car and made it back into my classroom with 2 minutes to spare before the bell!
Upon arriving at the school,I thanked this man endlessly.His calm behavior and kind nature made me think he was probably a wonderful manager to work for.
This experience makes me realize that out of every seemingly hopeless situation,there is the opportunity for acts of kindness to transpire(发生),which can have an unimaginable impact(影响) on those who receive them.
