Kerry, living on a pension, wanted to buy a prom dress for her granddaughter Anne. Despite her financial constraints, she visited a luxury store to find the perfect dress. However, saleslady Sandra, judging Kerry by her appearance, rudely suggested, “You can really get nice things at Target in your price range.”
Feeling humiliated, Kerry left the store in tears. A young police officer, George Martins, noticed her distress and offered help. He learned about her experience and was appalled. “That’s preposterous! How can a salesperson treat you like that?” he said.
George took Kerry back to the store, spoke with the manager, and helped Kerry choose a beautiful dress. Thanks to George’s intervention, the store offered a discount. George even paid for half of the dress, despite Kerry’s objections.
On prom night, Kerry surprised Anne with the dress and explained its significance. Anne was happy but disappointed about not having a date. At that moment, the doorbell rang, and George appeared in a tuxedo with a corsage. He had come to escort Anne to the prom, and she accepted, feeling excited despite her initial reservations.
The prom night was a success, and years later, Anne and George got married. Kerry proudly recalled, “I told you prom can change your life!” as she helped Anne with her wedding dress.
