Some parents bought their kids cars when they got their driver’s licenses. __44__ my dad---he said that I’d have to get a job and buy my own.

So that’s what I did. I got a job at a very nice restaurant and __45__ every penny I could. And when I had enough to buy my car, I __46__! The day I brought that car home, my dad was the first one I wanted to show it __47__ to. “Look, dad, a car of my own. If you ever want a ride, I’ll only __48__ you five dollars.” I offered with a smile.

“I see,” was all he said.

It was going to be a __51__ day. As I dropped my dad off, I __52__ him, dressed in his work clothes, getting his __53__ from the trunk of my car.

When he closed the trunk, his tools set off to the side, he walked over to my window to __58__ me five dollars. I rolled down the window and said “Good-bye, dad. Keep your five dollars. It’s on me. Don’t work too hard. I love you.”
