“$20.32,” the cashier said.
Ed opened his wallet and counted all the bills, sixteen even. His pocket clinked as he pulled out a handful of change, nowhere near four dollars.
He sighed and said, with a reddening face, “um. I guess I don’t need the milk,” before pushing the carton towards the cashier. She took it sympathetic reluctance.
Ed felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning, he saw an old woman holding a five dollar bill.
“Take this,” she said. “I remember how hard it was on my mother that we didn’t have enough food. Your mother’s worried about you.”
"Take is"? also you're should be your in the last sentence.
