Where else have you worked， or have you always worked here？ ()

A. I've been doing construction work and it's been a busy

season.

B. No , I didn't come to work here yesterday.

C.Oh , no. I've only had this place since last year.I was in Clinton Hospital.

After a long journey from Quebec，Canada in l896，1 was finally in a small office in Kingston，Jamaica.Behind a long table piled with books and papers sat an old man，Mr.Campbell，my new employer and the owner of The Lantern. He stared at me so long，and with such an expression of amazement，that I became uneasy and embarrassed.And then at last a single sentence came from his lips, “My God!” It seems that he had expected a woman of the then approved type of bluestocking(女知识分子)，and now a baby had been dropped into his lap!

I sat alone with that old man who stared at me as if l were some person of a strange nature.After he had almost stared me down，he began to ask me questions.

“How old are you？”

“Seventeen.I mean—I’m going on eighteen.”Eighteen was，in fact，eleven months off.

‘‘Have you ever worked before？’’

“I’ve written things.’’

After a silent moment，during which he glared at me more angrily than ever, he demanded：

“What have you written？”

“Poetry, ” I said, and stopped because he said again in that lost voice，‘‘My God!”

“What else？”

“I had a story published in The Star,” I said. “I’ve got it here, if you’d like to see it.”

He made a motion of definite disagreement.

“I taught myself shorthand，’’I said，‘‘and I can take dictation as fast as you can talk.”

“Not a bad idea.” And then he added，“What do you think you are going to do here？”

“Write for your paper，”I said.

“What？”he inquired curiously.

“Why-anything-poetry-”

He waved his hand in such a dismissing manner that I got up, though it was my poetry, not I, he wished to be rid of just then. I went neaner to him and said, “I know you don’t want me an I don’t want to stay. I am dory I came.”

“What about the money I paid for you to came here？”he shouted. “I’m going to lose that？”

,he’d been unemployed，and with winter raging on the chill had finally hit home.Most of his friends had already left the Midwestern town,but he stayed on.After all,he was born here.

It was getting dark and light snow was coming down.He almost didn’t see the old lady,but in the dim light of day,he could see she needed help.He pulled up in front of her car and got out.

Even with a smile on his face,she was worried.Was he going to hurt her？He didn’t look safe;he looked poor and hungry.Joe knew how she felt and said to her,“I’m here to help you,ma’am.Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm.”She had a flat tire and Joe set about replacing it immediately.All this put the woman at ease.She then rolled down her window and began to talk to him，telling him that she was from St.Louis and was only passing through.Then the thankful woman asked Joe how much she owed him.But Joe told her that he had been given a hand in the past and if she wished to pay him back,she could give the money to someone who needed her help next time.

A few miles down the road the lady went into a small café.A waitress brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair.The waitress was nearly eight months pregnant,but she never let the strain and aches change her attitude.The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger.When the waitress came back to give the lady her change from a hundred dollar bill,she found a message on a napkin：“Take this.Someone once helped me out the way I’m helping you now.If you really want to pay me back，here’s what you can do. Don’t let the chain of love end with you.”

That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed，the waitress was thinking about what the lady had written.How could the lady have known that she and her husband needed the money？With the baby due next month,it was going to be hard.Knowing how worried her husband was,she whispered soft and low to him，“Everything’s gonna be alright，I love you，Joe.”
