Read this excerpt from a personal narrative. “That will be $7.50,” the cashier said after ringing up the groceries I hoped to pu

rchase. I looked in my wallet and saw only a $5 bill. My face flushed as I realized I would have to put a few things back. “Um . . . sorry. I thought I had more money with me,” I replied. “What if I put back the bottle of juice? How much will that be?” Immediately, the woman standing in line behind me reached into her purse, pulled out $2.50, and handed it to the cashier. “Oh, thanks,” I said, surprised and relieved at the same time. “This is so generous of you. How can I repay you?” “Don’t thank me,” the woman replied. “I’m no saint. I just don’t want to wait in line any longer. Now you can go, and I can finally buy my groceries and get out of here.” What does the dialogue in the paragraph reveal about the narrator?

Answer:

Either the narrator is having a bad day, or is just clumsy. Just by this short part of the story, we can infer that he/she is a kind person. They use the word, "sorry," and were embarrassed yet polite when they realized that they didn't have enough money. When the generous person behind them gives them money, the narrator is thankful. However, the "generous" person isn't so generous. They just want to leave.
