Then Tony remembers something. “I lent(借) you ten dollars last week,” he says “Can you give it back to me?”

“I’ve very sorry, Tony,” Alan says. “I forgot about it.”

He thinks about this money for a minute. Then he says, “I haven’t got any money with me today. I’ll pay you back tomorrow.”

“All right,” Tony says, “I can wait another day.”

At that moment a man runs up. He has a knife in his hand. Alan and Tony are afraid. He is a dangerous man.

“Give me your money,” he says to Tony.

Tony takes out his wallet and gives it to the thief.

The thief takes out the money and throws the wallet on to the ground.

“Now you give me your money,” he says to Alan.

Alan thinks quickly. He takes out his wallet, but he does not give it to the thief. He gives it to Tony and says, “I owe（欠） you some money, Tony. Here it is.”
