The Orange Price
Language: en

My best friend started a group chat to sell fruits. Feeling sorry for her as a single mom, I often bought from her and even proactively introduced her to new customers. One day, a new intern ordered ten pounds of oranges and directly transferred $19.90 in the group chat. I was stunned and messaged her privately: "The oranges are $29 a box, you're $10 short." The intern sent back a confused emoji. And then she sent me screenshots of her previous purchases. "Sis, I've always bought them for $19.90, how could it be $29?" I was completely dumbfounded.
