The White Elephant 6: Kindness

Mary: Oh hi Peter.
Peter: Hi.
Mary: Are you ok?
Peter: Yes ... Perfect.
Mary: It doesn't look very perfect.
Peter: Well it is. It's just something took me by surprise. Look ...
Mary: £10?
Peter: Yes. It's my first ever tip.
Mary: Oh how sweet. Oh and it's a really big tip too - well done. You deserve it. But you'd better get back out there and earn some more ...
Peter: Oh yes ... ok ... thanks Mary.
Gordon: Ah Mary. I'll need you to wash those pans as quickly as possible please.
Mary: OK.
Ceilia: Gordon. Could you lend me £10? I need it for the milkman.
Gordon: Oh ... very well. There you go: £10.
Ceilia: Thank you!
Peter: Mary. I can't believe it. I've lost that tip that I was given. I thought I'd put it in my back pocket and then I went into the restaurant ...
Gordon: Oh dear Peter. A tip?! How very touching.
Mary: It was his first ... and it was a nice touch. Hang on Gordon, didn't I see you pick something up off the floor a minute ago?
Gordon: Well ... I ... no, I don't think so.
Ceilia: Hmm ... I see Gordon. Seeing as you're a kind and generous ... and well paid man, you could give Peter £10 ... just out of the goodness of your heart.
Peter: Thank you.
