Why are we talking about such nostalgic times, you may ask. Well, a bookstore shared a story of a young boy walking into its shop and he fell short of money on the comic that he wanted to buy. The bookstore’s gesture of giving him the comic for the money he had is winning the hearts of netizens.

Walking BookFairs shared the heart-warming story on Twitter Wednesday. The boy had Rs 400 in his pocket but the manga book (Japanese comic) he wanted was priced at Rs 699. The bookstore also posted a photo of the boy smiling widely, holding the manga comic, as he was told that he could buy the book for the money he had with him.

“A young reader walked in with ₹400 in his pocket, was overjoyed to find manga books in store, got disappointed that the one he wanted was priced ₹699. His smile when we told him he could have it at ₹400 made our day,” the bookstore tweeted.
