I 38coffee in takeout cups and patiently waited on customers who’d point through the glass case and say, “No, not that one, the one two rows over.”

Every afternoon around four o’clock, a group of school children would burst 39the shop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and 40on. I didn’t 41if the kids waited for the bus in the shop.

I came to know them pretty well. The girls would talk about school. The boys were more quiet, choosing not to 42

their secrets, but still, they’d wait every day in the store 43their bus came.

Sometimes I'd hand out bus fare （车费） when a ticket went 44— always repaid the next day．When ii snowed, the kids and I would wait 45for a very late bus．They'd call their parents to let them know they were okay．At _ closing time I wouldn't 46the door, and the kids and I would wait in the warm store until their bus finally arrived．

I 47a lot of doughnuts on snowy days．I enjoyed my pals （伙伴）, but it never 48to me that I played an important part in their lives—until one Saturday afternoon when a serious-looking man came into the store and asked if I was the girl who worked weekdays around four o'clock．I 49it was true, and he introduced himself 50the father of two of my favorites—a brother and sister team．

I told him it wasn't a big 53．that I enjoyed the kids．

"No, you don't understand．When they're with the doughnuts lady, I know they're 54．It is a big deal．And I'm grateful．"

So I was the Doughnuts lady．I not only had received a 55．I had become a landmark．
