When a couple walked out without paying for their dinner, I stood in the middle of the restaurant and cried, because I didn’t have the money to cover it. What I didn’t know yet was that it would turn out to be the luckiest four hundred dollars I ever spent.Let me tell you what four hundred dollars was to me, so you understand.It was two weeks of groceries in my house. It was the electric bill, with enough left over to put a little toward next semester’s tuition. It was the difference between calling home and saying everything’s fine and calling home and lying about it.
