I am sorry5
The other day I went shopping and I bought a few things. At one store I asked a saleslady for a shopping bag. She said I had to pay twenty cents extra.I asked, “Are you Hawaiian or Japanese?”
She said, “I am Japanese, and I am sorry I asked you for twenty cents extra.”
She gave me the bag and wouldn’t take the twenty cents from me. Afterwards, I got a few more things. As I was going out, she followed me and said very fast, “I am sorry.”
