[00:02.10]The Cookie Thief偷曲奇饼的人
[00:05.00]A woman was waiting at an airport one night,
[00:08.20] with several long hours before her flight.
[00:11.42] She hunted for a book in the airport shops,
[00:14.72] bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop.
[00:18.42] She was engrossed 1 in her book but happened to see that the man sitting beside her,
[00:23.87]as bold as could be,
[00:25.41]grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between,
[00:28.90] which she tried to ignore to avoid a scene.
[00:31.95] So she munched 2 the cookies and watched the clock,
[00:35.46] as the gutsy cookie thief diminished her stock.
[00:39.51]She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by,
[00:43.99] thinking, “If I wasn’t so nice,
[00:46.48] I would blacken his eye.”
[00:48.37] With each cookie she took,
[00:50.56] he took one too.
[00:52.09] When only one was left,
[00:54.40]she wondered what he would do.
[00:56.57] With a smile on his face,
[00:58.40]and a nervous laugh,
[01:00.00]he took the last cookie and broke it in half.
[01:03.47] He offered her half,
[01:05.05]and he ate the other.
[01:07.00]She snatched it from him and thought... oooh, brother.
[01:10.47] This guy has some nerve and he’s also rude.
[01:14.07] Why he didn’t even show any gratitude 3!
[01:17.12] She had never known when she had been so galled 4
[01:20.75]and sighed with relief when her flight was called.
[01:24.12]She gathered her belongings 5 and headed to the gate,
[01:27.95]refusing to look back at the ingrate 6 thief.
[01:31:65]She boarded the plane,
[01:33.19] and sank in her seat.
[01:34.83] Then she sought her book,
[01:36.93]which was almost complete.
[01:38.89] As she reached in her baggage,
[01:40.55] she gasped 7 with surprise.
[01:42.83]There was her bag of cookies,
[01:44.90]in front of her eyes.
[01:46.55] If mine are here,
[01:48.39]she moaned in despair,
[01:50.27] the others were his,
[01:51.76]and he tried to share.
[01:53.44]Too late to apologize,
[01:55.64]she realized with grief,
[01:57.60]that she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief.
[02:01.65]How many times in our lives have we absolutely known
[02:05.91]that something was a certain way,
[02:08.00] only to discover later that what we believed to be true...was not?
