This will be a short story. It all started when my mom had dropped me off at the barbers to get a haircut. She gave me the money that I needed and I went inside. After I was done with my haircut I went up to pay the lady. She gave me the price and I took out the money my mom gave me. I noticed that she had given me more than was needed so I just paid the lady the price of the hair cut and held on to the rest of the money. I than walked out of the shop and went to the car. But as I was walking I realized I had forgotten something.
I turned around and walked back inside. I noticed that the woman who had cut my hair was happy to see me return. At the time I just figured she was being nice. As I walked to one of the chairs I said "I just forgot my coat". I grabbed my coat and walked back outside. I noticed that the barber wasn't too thrilled to see me walk back out.
Later that night my family and I were all eating dinner and talking. "Oh mom" I said "I just remembered, you gave me too much money for the haircut. I've still got a few dollars left to give back to you". I than took the money out of my pocket and gave it to her. "Chris" she said "You were supposed to give this money to the lady as a tip". "Oh, really?" I said "oops". Now I knew why she had looked happy when I walked back for my coat.
