He wasn’t happy.

His bean cans were 4 cents more

Abandoning them

I should have paid for his food

Instead of letting him leave.

In the grocery store today, I watched an old man frustrated at the prices of his food. Three cans of beans and a box of Saltine crackers. The bill was only $2.49 and he fought with the cashier about the pricing. She checked, he was wrong and I missed the chance to help.
