Today's OneWord: Compensate

I wanted to compensate Nathan for the free lunch, but he wouldn't budge. Instead, he shook my hand, shook a handful of change out of the left pocket of his jean jacket, and shoved them into the nearest parking meter.

"I do things to make other people happy," he informed me as the machine whirred and read "0:15" on the screen instead of a mere "0:02." "If that means I have less money, then I think I'm acting like a true Christian, wouldn't you agree?"
