Ekon needed a new phone plan for school. His old plan ran out of data every month. He walked into the phone store after class.
A worker named Xiomara greeted him at the counter. "My data runs out fast," Ekon said. "What plans do you have?"
Xiomara showed him two plans on her tablet. "This plan gives ten gigabytes," she said. "It costs thirty dollars a month."
She pointed at the second plan. "This plan gives twenty gigabytes. It costs forty dollars a month."
Ekon thought about his days. He often watched videos. He used maps every day.
He needed a big plan. "I want the second plan," Ekon said.
"Good choice," Xiomara said. "That plan works well for you." She typed his information into the computer.
Ekon paid for the new plan. He put his phone back in his pocket. He left the store and smiled.
He called a friend outside. "I picked the twenty-gigabyte plan," he said. His friend asked him about the price.
