Prepare an SWBTS (Somebody Wanted But So Then) summary for this story.
There was an old woman that was walking down the street, suddenly a boy ran to her and snatched her pocketbook but the old woman caught him and told him that you should not steal my pocketbook. The boy said that he was sorry and the old women accepted his apology, the old women said that he needs to wash his face so she invited the boy to come over to her house, the boy said that he was good but the old women dragged his arm and forced him to come over. When they reached to the old women house she said that her name was Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones but she said that he can call her Mrs. Jones. Then she asked the boy what was his name and the boy said that his name was Roger. Mrs. Jones invited Roger to eat the cake that she made and also the drink that she made was cocoa. And Mrs. Jones was talking about her job and her life but she didn't want to ask Roger about his family or his life because she didn't want him to feel embarrassed. But then they both got to spend time with each other and have a bit of bonding time. After a little bit of chatting with each other she let Roger leave to his family if he had one and he wanted to say thank you to Mrs. Jones but he couldn't even though he wanted so badly.

Select two characters and analyze how they change from the beginning of this story until the end of this story.
Roger: Roger didn't like Mrs. Jones so he tries to leave but after he got to know he started to like her.
Mrs. Jones: She got annoyed from the boy and also didn't like him but the same thing when she started to know him more she liked him.

she said, looking out into the street.
