‎"Good morning," she said. I looked up at her and smiled. She smiled at me too.

‎"Are you hungry?" I asked.

‎She said, "Not really."

‎I offered her a glass of wine, which she drank.

‎"How much can you offer?"

‎I smiled and continued working.

‎She said, "Two continuous sessions of work for $100."

‎I continued my work, focused on a design.

‎"You mean...?"

‎I wasn't really interested in the price, but I decided to bring it down to $40,000, knowing fully well that she would reject it.

‎She said, "$100 or less."

‎She felt that the drink was a kind of treat.

‎I told her, "It's not a treat. Business is business."

‎She smiled once more.

‎"Alright, $90."

‎I said, "$70."

‎She said, "$80."

‎Finally, seeing that she wasn’t ready to go for a lower price, I agreed.

‎"Alright, $80."

‎"Now we can go for a treat," she told me, smiling.

‎What happened next is left for you to decide.

‎Thanks for reading.
