But the further tip tip tapping that followed made him wonder and change his mind. He was just about to turn around the end of the nearest isle when a heavily accented greeting hit his ears. “ello,” the shopkeeper returned, coming around and up to the man, his own brogue lightly present. It was then that he took notice of the cane his companion was holding as well as the glasses. Looks like he was right in looking into his entrance. “May I help you?” Adam’s head swiveled towards the sound of the returned ‘hello,’ but even with the sunglasses on, one could tell that his eyes did not focus onto the man. Adam put his friendliest smile on. He hated asking for help, but had become accustomed to it in the last few years. ”Hallo,” he repeated this time in a more friendly manner. ”I I need to reblenisch mein sdocks.” He held out the crumbled piece of paper in his right hand. ”I vrote vat I neeted dovn. Zought it might help. Somedimes beople can't hunderstand me.” He shrugged. Even after working in London for four years, his accent was still pretty strong and his command of English was still as bad as the day he met his friend Jory and thought Hufflepuff was a adverb for a nice person.
He held out his list, hoping the shopkeep could help him.
