“It’s 26 dollars,” said the wife.
Bradley had an excellent memory. He had seen the menu and knew the dishes she had servedamounted to 30 dollars.
“Isn’t it 30 dollars?”
“The beer is on the house for you.”
“No need.”
Bradley paid the original price.
Just a few steps away, his stomach started feeling uncomfortable. Suddenly, everything went black,and he collapsed.
The stall owners abandoned their cooking and rushed to him. One called 911, while the othersupported Bradley.
Soon, an ambulance took Bradley to the hospital. After an examination, the doctor learned that Bradleyhad a bad stomach, aggravated by beer and stimulating food tonight.

Whenever he had time, he would look at them.
He feared that he might forget how she looked like one day.
