I asked her where she was going. She told me a place which was actually on the __42__ to the craft store I’d be __43____ to. So I asked her to ___44___ the cab and I’d give her a ride. To my ___45___, she said okay without __46__. I wonder if I’d have been so __47__ if a stranger made me the same __48_!
