《365个英语小故事》:实用简洁的小故事，都是日常生活小故事，在学习英语的同时了解美国文化，循序渐进，轻松掌握。
Whenever the other waitresses saw Matthew pulling up in his old car, they would tell Amber that her boyfriend had arrived. They teased Amber about the day the elderly Matthew would propose to her.
What are you going to tell him? asked Chelsea. If you say no, he might go home and drink himself to death. If you say yes, the shock might give him a heart attack. Amber put up with her coworkers jokes.
Matthew continued to visit the Do-Drop-In regularly, but never proposed to Amber. The last time he ate breakfast there, he told her he was not feeling well. Thats why he didnt finish the pancakes, he said. And he had only one refill of coffee. For the first time ever, he left Amber a two-dollar tip. She tried to return one dollar, figuring that he had made a mistake. He said no, she had earned that second dollar. She thanked him.
In his will, Matthew left a dollar each to the Republican and Democratic parties; the rest of his money, $50,000, he left to Amber. He noted in his will that Ambers friendly smile was the syrup on my pancakes. Ambers coworkers were happy for her, at first.
But later, when she hadnt offered to share her money with them, some of them got angry. Youre supposed to share the tips, said Chelsea. Weve always pooled all the tips for each shift, and then distributed the total amount equally. This $50,000 was just an extra-large tip from a regular customer, and she should share it with the rest of the breakfast crew.
