The 2 moment was quickly followed by mental math. How much time and money would it cost to replace the 3 of that little wallet？The credit cards, the driver's license, the cash, all lost to the bus.

She 10 that going to a stranger's house was a 11 move, but she decided to take the chance. "If I were in that 12 . I would want someone to try to find me," she said.

18 , I feel blessed someone had wanted to help a stranger. Erin had gone 19 what almost anyone would have done, finding my house on a bitterly cold night, and for that I was extremely 20 .
