24. 6:02I also have a little hobby.
25. 6:12I play the lottery.
26. 6:29Every Friday,
27. 6:31I go to a small shop near my house.
28. 6:42I buy one lottery ticket.
29. 6:49Only one.
30. 7:02Then I put it in my pocket and go home.
31. 7:16I check the numbers in the evening.
32. 7:26I never win.
33. 7:33Not even once.
34. 7:41But that is okay.
35. 7:52I do not play to get rich.
36. 8:05For me, it is just fun.
37. 8:20One Friday, I buy my ticket as usual.
38. 8:33I put it in my jacket pocket.
39. 8:45But in the evening, I forget about it.
40. 8:54The ticket stays there.
41. 9:02A week passes.
42. 9:18One afternoon, I put on the same jacket
43. 9:21and go to the shop.
44. 9:31I buy some bread and milk.
45. 9:43>> Then I walk home.
46. 9:56Near my house, I take my keys out of my
47. 9:58pocket.
48. 10:14I do not see it, but something falls to
49. 10:17the ground.
50. 10:25I keep walking.
51. 10:36Suddenly, I hear someone behind me.
52. 10:48Mr. Henry, wait.
53. 10:56I turn around.
54. 11:02It is Lily.
55. 11:16She is 7 years old and lives next door.
56. 11:34She runs to me with a small piece of
57. 11:36paper in her hand.
58. 11:47You dropped this, she says.
59. 11:56I look at the paper.
60. 12:06It is my old lottery ticket.
61. 12:16Oh, thank you, Lily.
62. 12:28I put the ticket back in my pocket.
63. 12:38Then I go home.
64. 12:50That evening, I make some tea.
65. 13:02I sit at the kitchen table.
66. 13:13Suddenly, I remember the old ticket.
67. 13:24I take it out of my pocket.
68. 13:32I check the numbers.
69. 13:43The first number is right.
70. 13:50Then the second.
71. 13:59Then the third.
72. 14:08All the numbers are right.
73. 14:19I check them one more time.
74. 14:30I cannot believe it.
75. 14:43For the first time in my life, I win.
76. 14:55It is not a million dollars.
77. 15:04But I am very happy.
78. 15:15Then I remember Lily.
79. 15:26>> I look at the ticket in my hand.
80. 15:40Lilly finds my ticket and gives it back
81. 15:42to me.
82. 15:55Thanks to her,
83. 15:56I have my ticket again.
84. 16:11The next morning,
85. 16:12I go to the lottery office.
86. 16:22I get my prize money.
87. 16:39On my way home, I walk past a bicycle
88. 16:41shop.
89. 16:56There is a beautiful red bicycle in the
90. 16:58window.
91. 17:04I stop.
92. 17:10I look at it.
93. 17:18Then I smile.
94. 17:31I spend all my prize money on the
95. 17:32bicycle.
96. 17:41I give it to Lily.
97. 17:51She gets on her new bicycle.
98. 18:00She is very happy.
99. 18:10I stand there and watch her.
100. 18:21I am happy, too.
101. 18:34On Friday,
102. 18:36I go back to the small shop.
103. 18:47I take some money from my pocket.
104. 18:58I buy one lottery ticket.
105. 19:05Only one.
106. 19:16>> I put it carefully in my pocket.
107. 19:26Maybe I will win again.
108. 19:34Maybe I will not.
109. 19:42It does not matter.
110. 19:55For me,
111. 19:56it is still just fun.

123. 21:29Puis, je rentre chez moi à pied.
124. 21:33Près de chez moi, je sors mes clés de ma
125. 21:35poche.
126. 21:37Je ne le remarque pas.
127. 21:39Mais quelque chose tombe par terre.
128. 21:43Je continue à marcher.
129. 21:46Soudain, j'entends quelqu'un derrière
