I remember once I found a phone. It was a couple of years ago, but I remember this situation like it was yesterday because it was so memorable for me. When I worked at the store, I noticed the phone lying on the ground. I looked around, hoping that I'd see someone near me who may have dropped it. There was nobody. At that time, I was confused and didn't know what to do. I had only two options - the first one was to pick it up and return it to the owner, the other way was stealing it. I just wanted to solve it, but I was afraid of being accused, so I chose the right way. I picked up the phone and turned it on to search for information about the owner. I saw his photo on the phone's wallpaper. After seeing that picture, I recognized that he was an actor. I was glad because it was easy to find this actor. Firstly, I went to his office and returned his phone. He was surprised, and we almost became friends. Suddenly, he gave me money as a gesture of gratitude. My initial aim was to bring something from the store for myself, but that incident became a memorable story for me.
