You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
昼休みにスーパーへ買い物に行ったが、サイフがなくて買えなかった。
I went to the supermarket during my lunch break and wasn’t able to buy anything since I forgot to bring my wallet.
レジで商品をスキャンして、いざクレジットカードを投入という場面で気が付くという最悪の展開であった。
I scanned the merchandise at the self-checkout and noticed that I had left my wallet at the very last minute as I was about to pay by credit card.
定員さんに事情を説明すると、全て取り消してくれ、商品ももとに戻しておいてくれた。
I explained my excuses to the clerk and she cancelled my registration and returned the product to the store shelf.
非常に申し訳ないことをしてしまったが、スマホで決済できるようになってくれればこんなことはなかったのにと思った。
I felt that I was sorry, but, on the other hand, this wouldn’t have happened if supermarkets allowed the customer to buy their stuff by smartphone.
To be continued.
