#maybe i'll draw it...

I forgot to bring a lunch today, so during my art class I dug through my school bag and found a couple dollars worth of quarters, dimes and nickels. It's not much, but it'll have to do. I leave class, I scour underneath the vending machines, but there's nothing there (everyone's using cards nowadays!) and I make my way across the street to the school cafeteria tim hortons. I anxiously wait in line for a moment before timidly approaching the counter. The employee was busy so I had to wait a minute but then they looked back at me and...

And so I placed the coins on the counter and said, "I'm sorry, but I don't have a lot of money and I'm quite hungry... Um, but could I please have a plain muffin or something like that?" And so the employee brought over the muffin and said I was fifteen cents short. I looked around me, but there were no stray coins on the ground so I looked back at them and said, "Please, ma'am. I haven't eaten all day and I'm really hungry." And then they gave me a guilty look as they slid the muffin across the counter and assured me it was alright and I could just take it. I thanked her several times.
