I didn’t know that. So I just stood there
with my hand out. Finally, I returned the
bow.
I remember when I first met Marie last year,
I did the same thing. I held out my hand and
to my surprise, she kissed me on both sides of
my face!
I wouldn’t mind that!
Very funny. Later I found out French

each other.
