As soon as he arrived, the male tourist immediately apologized to the shop owner in bewilderment. An employee in the shop asked: "Did you forget something?". Dustin explained in Vietnamese: "Sorry! I haven't paid yet."

Receiving the answer, he subjectively laughed and said: "It's okay! It's okay! So why don't you go and come back in the afternoon or tomorrow to return it? It's nothing, it'll save you the trouble of traveling."
