However, I could not find my newly bought wallet. <br \/>&ldquo;My&hellip; My purse has disappeared!&rdquo; I stammered to the salesman of the record shop with apology.<br \/>&ldquo;Ah! That man is a pickpocket!&rdquo; cried my friend, Carol.<br \/>About two hours ago, we entered the shopping centre with excitement because I decided to buy some CDs and stationery for my little brother. The baking sun was hanging high in the sky. The temperature outside must be over 35\u2103. Carol and I were happy spending the Saturday afternoon in the air-conditioned shopping mall. The CD shop was located on the fifth floor, so we took a lift. As I was walking out of the lift, a young man who was wearing a pair of Levi&rsquo;s jeans and a casual shirt bumped into me. My bag dropped onto the floor. The polite youngster helped me to pick up my bag and bent down to apologize to me. <br \/>After that, we found the CD shop. We were overwhelmingly excited when we entered it. On the shelves were all our favourite CDs and VCDs. I chose a newly released CD of my idol, Celine Dior, and some classical music CDs for my brother who loved to play musical instruments. Feeling content and satisfied, I walked towards the cashier&hellip;<br \/>I found myself falling from the heaven to the hell when I suddenly discovered that I could not find my wallet. Carol and I left the shop with embarrassment. We went to look for the culprit at once. We went from one shop to another to find the man but it was a vain attempt.<br \/>I sighed and stopped in front of a long bench. Suddenly, I heard a man shouting loudly.<br \/>&ldquo;I&rsquo;m sorry, madam!&rdquo; the young man seemed excited seeing us.<br \/>Carol pointed at the man in disbelief. That was the man who had knocked down my bag! He ran at the top of his speed towards us grabbing a purple wallet in his hand. Oh, that was my lost wallet!<br \/>&ldquo;Thank you for your kindness.&rdquo; I smiled and sniffed. I had misunderstood him. He was not a thief but an honest young man who had tried very hard to look for the owner of a lost wallet. <br \/>After buying what I wanted, I left the shopping centre feeling very happy having bought my favourite CD and met a sincere and helpful young man on that day.&nbsp; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I searched my bag again and again impatiently.
