It was eight o’clock in the morning and time for me to go to work. I looked out of the window . It rained hard. « You will got wet through if you go out now», said my mother. « No, I…», I answered, « I will take an umbrella.» We have five umbrellas in the house, but when I wanted to take one, I found that there were not one that I could use: they all were torn or broken. So I took them all and carried them to the umbrella maker, saying that I would call for the umbrellas on my way home in the evening. When I went to have lunch in the afternoon, it still raining very hard. I went to the nearest cafe, and sat down at a table. A few minutes later a young woman came in and sat down at the same table with me. When I finished my lunch and was ready to leave, I absentmindedly took her umbrella and started for the exit. She stopped me saying that I took her umbrella. I returned the umbrella with apologies. In the evening I went to the umbrella maker, took my five umbrellas and got on the tram to go home. It so happened that the woman I met at the cafe rided in the same tram. When she saw me with my five umbrellas, she said, «You had a successful day today, haven't you?»
