It was Sunday. Mrs. Read got up early in the morning. She had some housework to do. After breakfast she had a look at the watch and found it didn’t work. She bought it ten years ago, so she wanted to buy a new one. Her daughter Sue was only four. Her husband was busy with his work that day and nobody looked after the girl, she couldn’t leave her at home. So she took Sue to the nearest shop in the town.
It was fine that day and there were a lot of people in the shop. Mrs. Read and her daughter went upstairs and they got to the third floor and she began to pick a watch there. But when she bought one, she couldn’t find Sue. She ran to the manager’s office and asked for help. Mr. King began to go up and down to look for the little girl with her.
Suddenly the woman heard someone calling, “Kate” She found it was her daughter. How happy she and the girl were!
“Whose name did you call, dear?” asked the woman.
“Yours.”

“There are lots of mothers in the shop,” said the girl. “Which mother answered me?”
