I walked into the Huddle House
Restaurant in Brunswick, Georgia and sat down at
the table. I
picked up the menu and was
to order something for breakfast.
“ Excuse me,”
I
looked up and
1
a nice-looking
woman standing before me.
“ Is your
name Roger?” s
he asked.
“Yes,” I answered, feeling rather
confused(
迷惑
) as I had
2
seen her before.
“My
name’s
Barbara
and
my
3
is
Tony,”
she
he
said,
pointing
to
a
middle
-aged
man
sitting alone at the table by the
window. He was
4
and weak.
“Tony White, from
Landon School in Jacksonville, Florida.” She
added.
I looked at that man
for a few seconds,
5
I didn’t know him.
“I’m really sorry. The name doesn’t
ring the bell,” I said.
She
walked back, began
6
with her husband and once in a while I
saw her turn around
and look directly
at me.
I ordered breakfast and a cup of
7
, sitting there, trying to remember who
this Tony was.
“I
8
know
him,”
I
thought
to
myself.
“He
knows
me
for
some
reason.”
I
picked
up
the
coffee
cup. All of a sudden it came to me like a flash of
lightning.
“Tony, the
bully, the bad boy!” I could
9
believe my eyes. “Jesus! He’s so thin
now. Not
the big boy that I
10
from back in 1977.”
Everything came up to my mind. The time
this
11
boy had made
fun of my big ears in
front of the
girls in my class, and the time this big bully had
pushed me against the walls in the
hallway just to make himself
12
a big man to all other
students.
“I am sorry, Roger,” Tony
rolled by me in the wheelchair, being pushed by
his wife, raising his
thin trembling
hand. “I am so sorry for
13
that I did to you.”
< br>“

I didn’t know what to
14
to him.
After a few months
later, I received a letter from Barbara. Tony was
