"I have more to tell you about Geoff." I stopped my steps to the eighth window. Seems that Isaac used to tell things in many parts, and that was good for some situations.
"Yeah?" I asked. "Is that about the trolley?"
"Thirteen months ago," he said, "I went to Vileville for some outfits. When I came out of the Boutique of Crescent, I saw Geoff coming out of the Chillies' Shop with a bowl. But inside the bowl was not chilli, it was just a bowl of peanut butter."
"How big is the bowl?" I asked
"It's about the size of his head, and the peanut butter inside was extra creamy. He was wearing a red scarf and he got stain of red chilli paste on it. Behind him was a short greybeard with moustaches, and a captain's cap of Captain Cap. Do you know who he was?"
"He's Captain Cap, for sure, I think," I said.
"Yes, or somehow, no. He was not, but he is, Captain Cap," He spoke awkwardly. "Captain Cap said something to Geoff, and Geoff nodded, and they went to the dock."
"What's the name of the dock?" I asked.
"Dick Dock, a strange name. It had got a pendulum hung below the arch. It swung and Wrong!-ed at every o'clock but it did not had any hands. When I examined the Arch of the dock, it swung three.
"I got into the cabin near the dock, not the one on the boat, and tried to find the ships' schedule—"
"Wait a minute. Where were Geoff and Captain Cap?"
"Oh, I haven't tell you."
"Of course you haven't."
"Sorry. But seems that your question about Dick Dock interrupt me!"
"I've just asked what the name is!"
"Oh, stop. They went to Dick Dock, but the saleswoman of the Boutique of Crescent dragged me back into the shop. She said that I hadn't paid yet.
"'Oh, I've paid for it already!'
"'No! you misunderstood me ! I meant that you haven't gotten your exchanges!'
"'Exchanges? I paid by credit card!'
"'No, you won't understand,' the saleswoman said, and gave me a juvenile novel. I opened it to the page said To Someone, and it said, 'To Mary—When we met, you were bloody, and I was loony. Now I am bloody loony'."
"That's awful," I said.
"That's awful."
