Old farts and angels

Half browsing the end caps as I passed the isles on my way to the check out my eye caught the gum, candy and trinkets behind an elderly couple who were being rung up furiously by a young woman in her twenties. I threw the two items in my hand onto the conveyor belt where they waited patiently to be scooped up into a bag. Nothing looked interesting on the shelves so my eyes and attention focused on what was holding me up.

"Two more dollars" the checker girl said; adding "and the thirty cents."

"94-95-96-97" the old woman counted out the very last penny in her hand and then dipped it back to rummage the bottom of her purse. 

OMG NOOoooo!!! my mind began to race. My luck had run out! I looked around and saw four cashiers with mile long lines and one was now forming behind me. There was no escape. 

"I just spent my money at the grocery store" the old man reminded his dusty mate by unfolding his pocket to reveal the lint as it dropped to the floor. "I don't have any cents on me at all" he added.  He reached behind him and began the laborious task of removing his wallet from his pocket as 'the Mrs' continued to jungle things about at the bottom of her purse. 

"Dear God" my mind raced as my face got red and I considered leaving the item on the conveyor belt and heading for the door; but all of a sudden my mind stopped. I did have but just one extra dollar in my pocket after the cost of my items. 

With my luck I knew they could be angels out testing humans. I could go on with my attitude and killed in a car wreck on the way home with my final testimony in the book of life being from these two! I threw the dollar on the table and they thanked me profusely. 

"I just went to the grocery store with her and you know how that is" the man began to explain to me as he pried two quarters out of a 'secret compartment' in his wallet. Just then, the cashiers apologetic look melted and a most beautiful glow radiated from her smile. 

 Choose to do good, even when you don' t feel like it. You never know where the angels stand, but in your heart you will know their testimony.
