Are you from the business class too?
Frederich
What do you intend to do on Mars then?

Ladies and Gentlemen. This is your crew speaking. I am your Captain Edward Downin'don
Captain Mohit
and I am Captain Mohit Thapar.
Captain Edward
The time has come to depart and start the engines. Please stay wherever you are
Captain Mohit
and also remember to hold onto something so as to avoid falling from initial thrust.
Morgan Truceman
*lies down on bed*
Morgan Truceman
(Goodnight)
*AT THE OTHER END THE CORRIDOR*
Hideki
No no no! Where is my room?
Yiming
You there. Need any assistance?
Hideki
Do you have any idea where is 89?
Hideki
That's not what I asked!
Hideki
Don't close the door, wait!
Captain Mohit
Engines ready
As the engines start, Hideki is thrown at Yiming.
Hideki
What the hell do you think you're doing?!
Yiming
You're too weak. Even a gust of wind can blow you away.
Hideki
(Huh, did this Chinese just insult me)
Surprisingly, nothing happened to the furniture. They're magnetized and attached to the floor.
After the turbulence, Yiming released Hideki.
Yiming
Hey, calm down! I didn't harass you.
Yiming
I really do not know.
Yiming
I propose a plan. You can stay here for today. I will ask a cleaner to show you room 89 later.
Yiming
You can sleep on the bed and I can sleep on the floor.
Hideki
Tsk, why would I spend a night in a stranger's room?
Love at first sight
Yiming
I am Yiming. Now we're not strangers anymore, alright?
Hideki
don't touch me again
Morgan Truceman
*wakes up*
Morgan Truceman
*brushes teeth*
Morgan Truceman
*turns on the virtual television*
NEWS: Yesterday afternoon, 2 terrorists from Pakistan were arrested at the Islamabad international airport. One of the terrorists commited suicide before being sent to trail while his accomplice refused to yield any useful information.
Morgan Truceman
Yeah, wait for 10 minutes.
Hideki
Excuse me gentleman, do you know where is room 89?
Frederich
Oh yeah, I just came across that room. Go straight and turn left.
Morgan Truceman
*opens door*
Morgan Truceman
I am sorry if I took too long.
Frederich
Nein Nein, it's alright. Blame it on me.
Frederich
*observes family picture*
Frederich
Is it your mother?
Morgan Truceman
Yes. She used to work in an orphanage, and rarely had time to talk to me.
Frederich
Hm, this is the job robots cannot take. But where does she work now?
Morgan Truceman
She passed away due to black liver.
Morgan Truceman
No it's fine, I am ready. Let's take a stroll.
Frederich
What about your father?
Morgan Truceman
I don't know much about him.
Frederich
You're not going to ask anything about me?
Frederich
Fine. I tell you myself. Actually, my parents belong from the middle clas-......
Just as Frederich started talking, Morgan saw the most beautiful woman ever.
Morgan Truceman
*slowers pace*
Morgan Truceman
*gazing from afar*
Tracey Brown
*giggles softly*
Tracey Brown
Dad you're funny.
Frederich
I can never forget what he did for me!
Frederich
Freund, are you listening?
Morgan Truceman
Yeah. Let's go to cafeteria.
Frederich
Talking about the cafeteria, have you considered about my business proposal?
Morgan Truceman
I didn't get time to think on it.
Morgan Truceman
Did you also saw the beautiful lady as we were passing by?
Frederich
Of course! She's the daughter of the richest man. On this ship.
*Morgan and Frederich sit down*
Table: please input your choice of meal
Morgan Truceman
His father seemed powerful. What does he do?
Frederich
Don't know. He has so much money, does he even need to do something? Haha
Frederich
I heard he will settle down in Mars with her daughter. If that is true, he will be the first rich person to do so.
Morgan Truceman
Hmm, I would have bread and jam.
Frederich
You're kidding me, really! Wait, Ich will buy you some German food.
*On the other end of the table*
Hideki
*Gets up and leaves*
Yiming
(Hmph, you will soon be mine)
Hideki
(Chinese people are really weird, can't even have bowl of rice!)
