I was walking around in a Target store, when I saw a Cashier hand this little boy some money back.

Then she asked him to stay there for just 5 minutes while she went to look around. She left quickly.

His eyes were so sad while saying this. ' My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister. ' '
他說話時的眼睛是哀傷的。『我妹妹已經和上帝在一起。爸爸說 媽媽很快也將要去見上帝，因此我認為她可以將娃娃帶給我妹妹。』
