The Encounter at the Jewellery Store!
N: Twas the night before Christmas and A was in search of a perfect engagement ring for his bride. All the Jewellery stores were either sold out r had been pillaged by insane shoppers because of the massive sales and discounts. However, there was still one store left with its displays and windows intact. He enters the store seeking what he wanted.
A: Ah such elegant display of beauty and culture.
N: A man appears from behind a counter.
?: Excuse me, can I help you?
A: Ah, you must be a worker here.
?: Ain’t too obvious, eh?
A: Ahem, I am in need of the most wonderful engagement ring that this store has to offer.
?: Other side of this display, sir.
A: Thank you, good chap. By the way, you may refer to me as A. I prefer to remain anonymous with I am in public.
?: Yeah? Well, I’m B.
A: But your nametag says-
B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. You got 38 minutes before I lock up.
N: A looks at the display of rings while B just stared at him.
A: I must say, this one here looks splendid! Where is it from?
B: Don’t know. I only work here.
A: Figures. Well, I’ll take this.
B: Yeah, yeah.
N: As the ring is being removed from its display, A notices something.
A: Hey! There’s a small scratch on the ring!
B: Man, it’s just a small scratch. You can hardly see it.
A: I demand a better one!
B: Look sir, this is the only one less and you get it cheaper since it was on display. C’mon don’t argue with me. It’s been a long day. Besides, only this store has this ring and all the other stores are either sold-out or closed.
A: Y-y-you goddamn … fine, I’ll take it.
B: Don’t worry man, your honey won’t notice.
N: And so, the transaction was completed. A left bitter for the moment and B went home.
