Austin had almost forgotten of the monetary awards as he beamed at the ribbons he had received. He looked up.
Thank you, sir. Thank you very much.
He always did try to be polite, even though his line of business sometimes didn't allow that.
I had never imagined getting an awards for doing what I do best. It's a great feeling, one I may want to bring back later, after I succeed at more challenges.
Maybe if you hang around long enough, a shipment of Cardi might just come in. He smiled. And maybe I'll just give you a discount...
Most of the audience's faces lit up and some clapped.
He turned to the man on the stage and said in a lower voice, The account for the award is A.McConnell. You'll have to use this security key to get in, I have it locked down pretty tight. He handed a small card to the young man.
