Della had a boyfriend who she liked alot. It was December 24, and she only had $1.87, to buyJim a present. Della had a very long hair that reached below her knees. She was standing by the window when her jacket and her brown hat went out the window.
She ranned out to get her jacket when she heard a man saying "hair good of all kinds", and Della asked would you buy my hair and the man looked at her hair and said $20, and she saled it for $20.
Della had now $21.87 tobuy Jim a present. She looked in every store but couldn't find anything to buy for Jim. When she saw a platinum fob chain, which only costed $21. She went back home with 87cents.
When she got home she gave a reason for having her hair cut off and rapidly went to work she waited for jim to showup at her work. Her hairtiny close-lying hair that made her look like a truant schoolboy.
Then finally Jim showedup , he looked thin and very seriouse. He didn't said anything when finally he threw Dellas present on the table. Della opened her present which he had worked all day for. He bought combs. She told him to open his gift and he saw he bought him a chain for his watch. But he had sold it to buy Della her combs.
