I’d been proud that I’d never lost my cellphone until my husband Jack got a call one evening.
We went to visit a friend in hospital last year. When Jack’s
36 rang, it was my mother calling from my
37 . She asked if I had
38 my mobile. I checked my purse. It was
39 !
I used Jack’s phone to call my number. Then a boy, whom I’ll call Rhys,
40 it. “I found your phone!” he said, excitedly. “I have been trying to find you, but
41 it was getting late, I decided to leave.” He gave me the address of a
42 near his home.
Later that evening, I went to
43 him there. I didn’t dare to go
44 , worrying this was some cheater. So Jack came along. After
45 10km, we got to the coffee shop which Rhys

My
47 were gone. Rhys was just a young boy. “How did you
48 my mum?” I asked. He

51 . He’d called many names, starting with the letter A. Finally he got Adam, one of my friends, who
52 my house.
I was
53 to get my phone back with all the contacts, messages and photos I could have lost for ever. I was so
54 to Rhys and offered him some money, but he
55 .
As we drove back, we praised Rhys for his honesty.
