“That will be $23, r. Peters," Logan said.
Mr. Peters was taken aback by the bill's amount. He asked, “And how much without the fruits ”
“$19, sir”
"I see." Mr. Peters looked in his wallet. He studied the bill and said, “Actually, I' ll just take the greens,thank you."
“You know what Here, let me pay for your order, It looks like you may have ... left your card at home or something."
Mr. Peters didn't see this kind gesture coming, and even though it hurt his pride a little, he accepted the boy's help.
