Day out

Meanwhile, in the shopping mall in the city…

"Penny," Slater called, holding an ugly-looking stuffed toy in front of his face. 

When Penny turned her head, her face remained the same when she saw the horrendous stuffed toy. But when Slater abruptly pulled it down, she flinched. 

"Penny!" Slater gasped in disbelief. "How could you not flinch at the sight of this stuffed toy, but get surprised with my face?! I don't look as horrible as this one!"

She deadpanned. "Really?"

"Hah!" he gasped again. "What's with that look?!" 

"Nothing." Penny looked away and set her eyes on the rack of greeting cards before her. She rubbed her chin, scanning the variety of greeting cards.

Slater glanced at the rack curiously. "Is someone having a birthday? Why are you looking for greeting cards?"

"For future purposes."

Future purposes?
