"Yes. Of course," he says, smiling a little at how she still manages to capture all of his attention with seemingly no effort at all. With a small, apologetic bow to the staff, he places a few bills on Shoshanna's table (enough to cover their small checks, plus a bit extra for the inconvenience they have caused, though tipping is not a customary practice in Japan), then offers her an arm to escort her out of the store - just as he would have all those years ago.
