RT#5

I don't know the kid's name. Must be around five. Was shopping with her mother enjoying a lollipop. The little girl went round the mini departmental store several times before her mother could pick up a couple of things. My attention was on the sprightly little child. The mother paid the bill and was out of the shop when the kid decided to add pears soap to the purchase.
Mother refuses to add soap to the purchase. The child does not give in. Fun filled exchanges between them has the shop keeper and me smiling. The mother is out of the shop and the imp calls out after checking with the shop keeper " it is only twenty two rupees".
No says the mother and the child soap in hand goes back and forth calling to the mother.At last in comes the mother and says half resignedly to the shopwala " I don't have the money and shall send it through tomorrow".
And my surprise knew no bounds when the child promptly plucked the soap from the shopping basket and put it back on the stand and went out silently.
What surprised me was, in spite of wanting the soap badly the kid less than five thought the transaction was complete only when the money was paid in!
