In exchange, maybe I could help you pick out gifts. Unless you already have something in mind.

As a matter of fact, I may take you up on that offer. I haven't been able to decide just what I should get my sister yet. You might have a better eye for that then I would.

I will do my best, at the very least. Tell me about your sister, Tetsu.
