The sun shone brightly when Anna woke up early the next morning. When she felt a ray of sunlight falling on her face through the

window, she instinctively raised her hand to shield it. Then, she sat up.

At that moment, she heard something scratching the car outside.

Anna then instantly got out of the car. And she saw Wayne standing in front of the car’s gas tank and fiddling with a plastic pipe.

She asked as she felt puzzled, “Hey, what are you doing?”

Wayne looked at her and said, “Filling up the car, obviously.”

The white tube connected the fuel tanks of the two cars and was transferring the oil from her’s to his.

“Is that so? It seems the local people are really kind!”

“He asked me for two hundred dollars.” He then said.

Hearing his words, Anna immediately shut her mouth and couldn’t help but frown. She thought to herself, Gee, Wayne, why do you

look so upset? You didn‘t even seem to want to talk to me. What exactly is going on? Did / irritate you?

Wayne lowered his head and connected the tube. He then straightened up, cleaned his hands and said, “We can get to the town
