Chapter 98: The gas grill
"Integrity is something that one should always imbibe in themselves. You have broken your promise to me several times. If you have a situation, you should have stated it. If you sold the gas grill, you should have started instead. But you keep me hanging for two weeks, that is just cruel on your path. I would not like to do business again with you."
Arlen read the message with equal parts guilt and equal part amusement. This retired river reminded him of someone, he looked in the direction of the stairs.
He sent another puppy apologizing, " Sorry. I thought that you had already gotten the grill from someone else. I would be busy at work so I would leave the grill in a store not far from my apartment building. You can go and get it anytime and just drop the money with the shopkeeper. As for the peppered noodles and fish, you can drip it with the shopkeeper and text me."
"Fish? We did not say anything about fish."
"If you add fish, I would charge you 75 dollars instead for the grill."
Retired River did not reply so, Arlen lifted his head from his phone and looked at the teenager who was staring at him cautiously, "You gave Ravi orange juice, wouldn’t you give me any?"
The teenager lowered his head, "It is just for Ravi."
"Ah! You also dislike me. It reminds me of your namesake, he also disliked me. It is a little funny how the two of you are similar. I wonder..."
"I would give it to you. The orange juice." Asher hurriedly interrupted and poured the fruit juice into a place, he then thought for a while and entered his room. Ravi had bought him a lot of snacks, he took out a package of cookies and opened it, pouring some in a plate, he then passed it to Arlen.
