Mr. Chow:
It must seem odd to ask you out, but I want to ask something.
That handbag I saw you with this evening...Where did you buy it?
Mrs. Chan:
Why do you ask?
Mr. Chow:
It looked so elegant. I want to get one for my wife.
Mrs. Chan:
Mr. Chow, you're so good to your wife!
Mr. Chow:
Not really! My wife is so fussy.
Her birthday is some days away.
I don't know what to get her.
Could you buy one for me to give her?
Mrs. Chan:
Maybe she wouldn't want one just exactly the same.
Mr. Chow:
You're right,I didn't think of that. A woman would mind.
Mrs. Chan:
Yes, especially since we're neighbors.
Mr. Chow:
Do they come in other colors?
Mrs. Chan:
I'd have to ask my husband.
Mr. Chow:
Why?
Mrs. Chan:
He bought it for me on a business trip abroad.
They aren't on sale here.
Mr. Chow:
Then never mind.
Mrs. Chan:
Actually...I want to ask you something too.
Mr. Chow:
What?
Mrs. Chan:
Where did you buy your tie?
Mr. Chow:
I don't know where it came from.
My wife buys all my ties.
Mrs. Chan:
Really?
Mr. Chow:
She bought this one on a business trip abroad.
It's not on sale here.
Mrs. Chan:
What a coincidence!
Mr. Chow:
Yes.
Mrs. Chan:
Actually...My husband has one just like it.
He said it was a gift from his boss.
So he wears it every day.
Mr. Chow:
And my wife has a bag just like yours.
Mrs. Chan:
I know, I've seen it.
What are you getting at, actually?
I thought I was the only one who knew...
I wonder how it began...
