New Yorkers


i read next book, the tile is ''New Yorkers''. it was composed of 5 short stories. i'll tell you one story which i like the best.
[The Cristmas presents]
i like this story the most, because my heart got warm after reading it.
Della lived in poor little room, everyday, she spent very little money. but she wanted to buy christmas present her husband, Mr. James Dillingham Young. so she sold her beautuiful long hair by twenty dollars, and she bought gold chain for his watch. he loved his watch, but he didn't have chain for it.
when she came back to her home, she looked her hair in the glass. she thought she looked like a school girl! very small curls. she was afraid of what Jim was saying when he sees her.
after a miniute, Jim came back home, and he looked her. he was not angry, she was afraid, so she said she wanted to present him, and sold her hair, and asked ''don't you love me any more? '' then, he put his arms round her. he doesn't care if her hair long or short. and he said, '' i love you''. but at first why he looks unhappy?? suprisengly, he also bought a present her by selling his watch. it was Combs for her beautiful hair, which she sold for his watch.
it was a story with full of love.
