I gave the little girl a Sinukuan amulet, an enchanted stone from _________, and a toy house. Before I left her house she gave me a basket of fruits that had a red envelope tucked into it. "I hope this isn't money," I said when I picked up the envelope. I took the fruits but gave her back the envelope. Her family isn't rich after all, and I really do not ask for compensation for psychic services.

Later this evening, ____, who flew in from the U.S.A. a few days ago and whom I'd never met before, visited. We had a snack at M.'s cafe. He suddenly pulled out items from his knapsack and gave me Bruce Lee items I'd always wanted but never expected to have. At least, not today.
