Read the excerpt: At the coffee shop, the tip jar sat by the register with a handwritten sign: "College Fund." The barista misheard Lena's order twice. Each time, Lena repeated it without raising her voice, smiling with her lips but not her eyes. When the drink finally came out wrong again, Lena took it, thanked the barista, and walked to the condiment station. There, she poured the drink into the trash, rinsed the cup, and placed a five-dollar bill into the tip jar on her way out. What does Lena's thanking the barista, discarding the wrong drink, and still leaving a generous tip most strongly reveal about her?
