The customers all around snickered. Embarrassed to the core, he fled from the restaurant.

Betty collected herself, looked at the man, and thanked him. “Thanks for the help, sir.”

The man bowed his head.

Just then, the anxious waiter looked at Betty and cut in, “Well… Madam…”

Betty took the hint, blushed, and said, “I’ll pay the bill. How much is it?”

 

The waiter heaved a sigh of relief and said, “$5,000.”

“Well…” Her cheeks burning, Betty plucked up the courage and asked, “Can you… Put it on the cuff?”

The waiter froze and soon pulled a long face. “Sorry ma’am, no credit is given at this restaurant. If you can’t pay the bill, we’ll have to resort to other means.”
