God!" and ran away. "If I hadn't been carrying my shopping I would really have put him on his back." said Mrs West who had practised judo (柔道) when younger. "When my husband was living.

The younger woman leaving the supermarket was in a hurry, but she stopped and turned to look. She saw an old lady with a small bag of groceries at her feet. She was breathing hard.
“If you’re going toward 181st street, could you carry my bag for me？”
“I don’t have the time for this,” the younger woman thought. But when she saw the old woman, who looked very tired, she said,” Of course.”

“Oh, no. It was no trouble.”
“Well, we’re neighbors,” the old woman said. “We’ll see each other again.”
“I hope so.”
