That cold January
night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking
home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening
night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble
dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same
time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San
Francisco. City life had become too much for me.
As I walked down empty
streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both
to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers. Very few people were still
out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.
About a block from my
apartment, I heard behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone
with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining
streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster.
Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize
what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.
Suddenly I wasn't cold
or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise.
Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was
nowhere to be found.
Just as I was about to
give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to
me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I
was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped
a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. "Is this what you're
looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.
It was nearly 3 a.m.
by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had got
my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized
that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help
each other.
