Extend the Story - Add a Room

Jason's eyes fell on a store that was selling jewelery. Normally things like cheap jewellery wouldn't interest him, but since the pretty metals and gemstones glittered in the sun, beckoning him to come closer, he went to take a look.

"See anything that interests you, Mr. Jason Olmond?" he heard a creaky voice ask him.

Jason saw that it belonged to an elderly, short man leaning over the counter. On closer inspection, he had some oddities when it came to his features, like a slightly green skin and pointed ears, but Jason knew it was rude to stare.

"Hmm, I'm just browsing," he said before he realised something, "H-how do you know my name?"

Jason was a bit creeped out that he knew his situation so perfectly, but at the same time he was intrigued by what the old man had to offer.

"What is it?" he asked and the old man smiled, taking out a small box from his pocket and setting it down on the counter.

"How much does it cost?" Jason asked.

"50 bucks, but I'll give you it for 40 instead," said the old man with a bright smile.

What did Jason do?

He rejects it and leaves
