The mango vendor near our gate in Kompally now saves the best ones for my 12 year old

In April she asked him, very politely, to cut one open before we bought a dozen. He was offended for about a day. Since then she has insisted on tasting first, and he has started keeping a few aside when he sees her walking back from morning training. He now calls out to her before he calls out to me. I am fairly certain I am paying the same price for the second-best ones.
