kintaro 0 Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 It's Japanese style to give in these situations. I broke my leg snowboarding this winter and got around 40,000, food, and flowers from various people. But, when you get better you are expected to give something about equal value back to anyone who gave to you. Taihen da yo ne! Link to post Share on other sites
