Cynthia and her friends were walking in the
like they always do. They did this twice

an ice cream cone out of a woman's
and it landed on the woman's shirt. The
was upset.
Cynthia apologized and started taking the
cream off the woman's shirt. The woman was
more upset. "How dare you touch me!" she
. Cynthia apologized again. "You're going to have to
for this shirt and the ice cream!" the
said. Cynthia's friends started laughing. They thought it
funny that she was making a big deal
of the situation. "Can't you just put the
in the washing machine? Why does she have
pay for your shirt?" asked Martha. "The stain
not going to come off," the woman said. "
's alright, Martha. I'll just pay for it," Cynthia
.
Cynthia asked the woman how much the shirt
. "It was $147," she said. Cynthia reached into
wallet. "Cynthia, this woman is clearly lying to
," Martha said. Cynthia thought about it. Martha was
right! This woman was taking advantage of Cynthia's
. Cynthia asked for proof and the woman could
give it to her. The woman walked away,
that she was caught lying. Cynthia was thankful
Martha.
