Frank smiled, shaking his head. "Don't worry-I'm neither blind nor deaf. I knew what was happening from the start, and I'd be even more upset if I were in your shoes."

The stall owner sighed in relief at Frank's words and turned to leave, not forgetting to curse the beggar under his breath.

Frank took it, not minding it at all and finishing it in a few bites. "It's good, but I can make something better. How about it?"
