i found half of the day to viit a flower how and had my long hair cut. coming out of the how, i walked along until i came to a park bench. i at down to allow myelf ome leiure for the firt time ince i tarted learning french two month before.
then a book lying in the gra nearby caught my eye. i picked it up. it wa a french book in ecellent binding①. a i turned the page quickly, a young couple came up to ak if i had een a book in german. wrongly undertanding my epreion on my face, the young man, who eemed well-educated, added that it wa a book in literature.
i held out the book and eplained it wa a french book on education. the man wa o troubled by what i aid that he took it away from my hand in a hurry.a they turned to go away, i heard the man peaking: “what do you epect? a guy② with long hair and in bell-bottom trouer③ cant tell german from french.”
the girl nodded in agreement, but i wa wondering if he would ever find out what wa going on.
