English
The Blue Notebook at Night
At eight oโclock on Wednesday evening, I am in the stationery department of a department store.
I look at a white notebook and a blue notebook and ask a clerk, โWhich one is cheaper?โ
The clerk says, โThe blue notebook is cheaper than the white notebook.โ
I ask, โMay I pay by card?โ
The clerk says, โI am sorry, you cannot use a card at this store.โ
But I have money in my wallet, so I buy the blue notebook.
