Flowers

I got up early to go to the marriage registration office. I had to pick up a letter from the registrar stating that I wasn't married in this country. When I got there the woman was crying. She had made me feel like crying the first time I went, but I felt sorry for her and when I asked her how much I had to pay she said one hundred but I only had five hundred so she said she didn't need anything.

I went out and found a kiosk to change my five hundred at - it was a flower shop so I bought a flower and took it and a hundred note back for the woman at the registry office. She started crying even more because her husband had run away with a woman who owned a flower shop.
