That handbag I saw you with this evening... Where did you buy it?
Why do you ask?
It looked so elegant. I want to get one for my wife.
Mr. Chow, you're so good to your wife!
Not really! My wife is so fussy. Her birthday is some days away. I don't know what to get her. Could you buy one for me to give her?
Maybe she wouldn't want one just exactly the same.
You're right, I didn't think of that.
A woman would mind.
Yes, especially since we're neighbors. Do they come in other colors?
I'd have to ask my husband.
Why?
He bought it for me on a business trip abroad. They aren't on sale here.
Then never mind.
Actually... I want to ask you something too. Where did you buy your tie?
I don't know where it came from. My wife buys all my ties.
Really?
She bought this one on a business trip abroad. It's not on sale here.
What a coincidence!
Yes.
Actually... My husband has one just like it. He said it was a gift from his boss. So he wears it every day.
And my wife has a bag just like yours.
I know, I've seen it.
What are you getting at, actually?
I thought I was the only one who knew.
