Jimmy’s mother works for my family. We meant to throw the shirt away, but gave   2   to her instead.” Hearing the words, I was embarrassed. It was Mike. Mom worked for his family.
In the evening, I told my mom what had happened. She was silent for a while and then called her employer, “I will   3  work for your family.” That night, she knew her life’s   4   was something greater. She decided to find a more meaningful job.
