The car drove all the way to downtown, across the Malay district with its bustling shops, coffee houses, and colorful street entertainers. Irish had always liked being in crowds, so she let Will, who had been with her for the whole afternoon, go back first. Will felt embarrassed and said that he could not do so on account of Mr. Dover, so Irish said that she had become familiar with the city and would hitchhike back to the apartment. Will gave up, told her to be safe, and then left.
Irish walked all the way to the George commercial street. It was the most suitable place to go shopping, from the large shopping centers to the dazzling open shops. When she roamed excitedly, her mobile phone rang, it was Joseph.
He spoke in a slightly exhausted voice, "Why did you tell Will to go away?"
"He's a big man, and I'm shopping around the street. I would feel embarrassed for him." Irish entered a shop and picked up a folk art piece.
