Strange But kind

     It was a beautiful morning at the park just walking around and, listening to my mother talk on the phone with my aunt about grocery shopping. My mom then decided to go grocery shopping at publix at publix I would always wander around until I would end up at the school supplies aisle and that day I saw a beautiful pencil it was fuchsia so adorable in my eyes and I just wanted it so I got it and decided to go pay it without thinking if I had enough money in my pocket or nonetheless checking the price. Once I got to the register the cashier scanned it and said "four dollars and sixty- eight cents is your total" I looked at her and thought to myself but I only have three dollars and fifty cents, I realized that there was already someone behind me and I did not know where my mom was so I told the cashier that I was sorry and that I did not want it anymore, but the lady behind me asked the cashier how much was it and she told the cashier that it was not a problem and to charge it along with her groceries. I told the lady that she did not have to pay for it and she looked at me and said "sweetheart it is for school and, that I should be able to have a pretty pencil for school", I looked at her and thanked her for buying my pencil. That was the first time that I had seen kindness from a stranger and till now the only kind of kindness.
