My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about the thing that happened to me. It’s 16 now but it wasn’t that time.
Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I 17 a rest before catching the train, so I bought a 18 and some chocolate and went to the station coffee shop that was a cheap, self-service place with long 19 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to 20 a place and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the 21 seat. It was one of those 22 young man, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair colored bright 23 at the front, not so unusual these days. What did 24 me was he’d started to eat my chocolate!

The boy looked at me 26 . then he took another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly 27 it. Still I didn’t want to start an argument. When he took a 28 piece , I felt more 29 than annoyed.

The boy gave me a 31 look, and then stood up. As he left, he shouted out, “This woman is mad!” Everyone 32 . That really made me feel silly, but it was 33 when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red—as red as his hair when I 34 I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate he’d been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my 35 .
