200 Peace’s Secret

The sun shone brightly when Anna woke up early the next morning. When she felt a ray of sunlight falling on her face through the

window, she instinctively raised her hand to shield it. Then, she sat up.

At that moment, she heard something scratching the car outside.

Anna then instantly got out of the car. And she saw Wayne standing in front of the car’s gas tank and fiddling with a plastic pipe.

She asked as she felt puzzled, “Hey, what are you doing?”

Wayne looked at her and said, “Filling up the car, obviously.”

“Wow! Awesome!” Anna said.

Anna froze as she discovered how he did it. She asked, “How did you do that? I remember that your car was far away from mine!

“Someone passed by us this morning, and I asked him to help me push it over,” Wayne said, looking at her again.

“Is that so? It seems the local people are really kind!”

“He asked me for two hundred dollars.” He then said.

Wayne lowered his head and connected the tube. He then straightened up, cleaned his hands and said, “We can get to the town
