One cold night,I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was walking home around one o’clock in the morning after a
26 practice at the theatre. With the opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines by heart.I was having
27 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked I thought seriously about
28 both acting and San Francisco.I had
29 too much of city life.
As 1 walked down the
30 streets under the tall buildings,I felt very small and cold, so I began
31 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers.Very few people were still out
32 a few homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my
33 , I heard a sound behind me. I
34 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty.All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still,the noise had made me
35 , so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I
36 what the noise had been.It had been my wallet
37 to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired any more.I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise.Although I searched the sidewalk
38 for 15 minutes,my wallet was
39 to be found.
Just as 1 was about to quit the
40 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to
41 .When a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?”I thought I was
42 .How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an amused look in his eyes, “Is this
43 you’re looking for?” He asked, holding up something like a wallet.
It was already 3 am. by the time I got into bed. I couldn’t get much sleep,but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some
44 of city life. I realized the city couldn’t be a bad place
45 people were willing to help each other.
