I walked into the Huddle House Restaurant in Brunswick, Georgia and sat down at the table. I picked up the menu and was to order something for breakfast.
“Excuse me,”
I looked up and a nice-looking woman standing before me.
“Is your name Roger?” asked.
“Yes,” I answered, feeling rather confused(迷惑) as I had never seen her before.
“My name’s Barbara and my is Tony, “she he said, pointing to a middle-aged man sitting alone at the table by the window. He was and weak.
“Tony White, from Landon School in Jacksonville, Florida.” She added.
I looked at that man for a few seconds, I didn’t recognize(认识) him.
“I’m really sorry. The name doesn’t ring the bell,”I said.

“I’m…I’m er…” I didn’t know what to to him.
After a few months later, I received a letter from Barbara. Tony was . Tony had been a fireman and had been seriously wounded in a task.
How I regretted for not saying something to him but I no longer had the chance!
