The bustling marketplace was a cacophony of sounds and smells. Amidst the chaos, Ben spotted the wallet near a fruit stall. He picked it up, examining the contents. He knew how important money was. He looked at the ID, and then back at the bustling market.

He tracked down the owner, a frantic-looking vendor, and handed it over. The vendor's smile was enormous. As Ben walked away, he felt a strange, humming feeling in his chest. He bought a small, ripe mango from the vendor and smiled as he ate it.
