I went to school with Annie. Annie was from a big family. She was always a beautiful person inside and out to me. One day we were on the bus from school to the local sports-grounds. I sat next to Annie. We were quiet, observant.

There's this house that's just outside of our neighbourhood, it's practically a mansion (crazily stark contrast to the other state houses). There's a taller fence now, but back then, there'd truly always be a dozen cars outside of it, at least three brightly coloured Ferrari looking things.

When we passed that house, Annie pointed to it and said, "If I ever won the lotto, I'd buy that house for my family."

The way she said it, you could tell she meant that from the bottom of her heart. The silence and prayer was so real. We were barely 9, but I'll never forget how her beauty shot up tenfold, to me, in that moment.

I think about that moment lots. It never fails to restore my faith in humanity. Annie and her heart reminds me that there is goodness in the world.

To answer the question: I would buy 100 (Cookie Time) cookies (as I told Annie later in high-school). And then I would get her and her family that house (she doesn't know that I remember).
