Question

The summer of 1975 I’d just graduated from college in Southern California and received a Ford Car for a   36   present. I had my first job, in Los Angeles. One Sunday night, thinking myself a very   37   gown-up, I   38   my uncle’s place in South Laguna after a visit,   39 admitting to him that I had less than an eighth of a tank of gas and no   40   to buy more on the way to L.A. I pulled onto the Pacific Coast Highway and watched the   41   move down as I headed north. When the engine started giving off strong smells, I   42   into a gas station. There was no self-serve then; there were no credit cards, no ATMs.

I   43   the guy at the station. I could write him a check for gas, I said, or I could   44  in my car and try to walk to a town with a   45   the next morning. As he was informing me that I could sleep in my car but he’d have me arrested, a station wagon pulled up to the next  46  . The driver—a thin, plain, middle-aged guy—overheard the tail end of my   47   request. As the attendant went to   48   him, he nodded at me. “  49   her tank first,” he said.

“Really?” I said.   50   bloomed. “Oh, thank you. Thank you. But please. I just need two  51   worth. I just need to get home.”

“Fill it,” he   52   to the attendant. Then he turned to me, “You’ll do the same one day, for someone else.”

I keep looking for someone unlucky, hoping to save her   53   on the road. Meanwhile, in case she never shows up, I try for other acts of   54   kindness. That quiet driver is always at the pump a few feet away, instructing the attendant to fill mine   55  .
