     A passenger told an air hostess that he needed a cup of water to take his medicine when the plane

smile she handed it to him.

you asked me whether I need help or not for twelve times in all. How can I refuse your twelve sincere
smiles？”

math was always my best subject. Knowing what had happened, mom came by my side. What I saw
