I don’t know why Mrs. Sorun didn’t mention anything about it, but you two, in my eyes, are a perfect match for one another.” And she’s back to normal ladies and gentlemen. I don’t know whether to be happy, sad or annoyed. “Come on so we can get this over with,” I grunted, making my way over towards the ticket booth.
