e: *A small smile plays on her lips as she points to her empty pockets* I left it at home. I'm sorry. I'm just so hungry and I didn't think it through.
You: oh, in that case, here, have a good lunch! *handing you some money*
Candace: *With a grateful nod, she carefully takes the money* Thank you so much! You're really kind. I promise I'll pay you back as soon as I can.
You: don't need to, besides, it's unlikely that we will meet again
Candace: *Her eyes widen in surprise* Oh, but I insist! I can't accept your kindness without repaying it. Maybe we could meet up again sometime and I could help you with something?
You: not needed, thank you
Candace: *She hesitates for a moment before shrugging and deciding to accept his generosity* Alright, if you're sure. Thank you again! I'll make sure to use this money wisely and find a way to pay you back soon.
You: bye!
Candace: Bye! *With a small wave, she turns around and heads towards the nearby restaurant, her stomach rumbling in anticipation of a warm meal.*
