The Umbrella at the Supermarket

On a rainy morning, I went shopping at the supermarket.
I put my black umbrella at the store’s entrance.
But after shopping, my umbrella was not there.
I said to the store staff, “My umbrella is missing. Please help me.”
The staff member looked at the umbrellas outside and said, “Ah, it is behind that big white umbrella!”
Because that was my umbrella, I was really glad.
