Episode 6
John Sze
What have you done Dora!
John Sze threw a mug and Charles saved Dora from the almost collision.
Charles Mo
Calm down, father.
Charles Mo
There must be an explanation.
John Sze
She’s offended Aubrey Kung.
Dora Sze
I was led to his place instead of Nina’s.
Charles Mo
Why are you still searching for Nina...
John Sze
I’ve told you to forget about that wench.
Dora Sze
But she’s my sister!
Nina’s farmer neighbor came over to trade for vegetables in exchanges for her chicken manure fertilizer.
Nina Sze
Thank you so much!
She shut the door and headed to the kitchen with bags of potatoes, carrots, and cabbages.
Nina Sze
Successful trade!
Aubrey Kung
I’ve sent you recipes.
Nina Sze
I’ll make some fries.
He’s never had fries in his entire life, when he tasted it, he couldn’t stop having it.
Aubrey Kung
Cook some more.
Nina Sze
You’ll be full before dinner...
She cooked more anyways as she was ignored.
She was still seated on the dinner table with her laptop when she received a message from her mother.
Aubrey put down his book and looked up.
Her eyes... they were dead.
She shut her laptop and looked back at him.
Aubrey Kung
Jumping jacks.
Aubrey Kung
I said do fifty jumping jacks.
Nina Sze
What’s with this task?
She couldn’t believe she fell this low, doing this for his amusement. Her anger took over her mind though which helped her heart calm down.
Aubrey Kung
What did your message say?
She wanted to tell him too that it was none of her business, but she’s never really had anyone to talk to.
Nina Sze
My mother wanted to see me...
Aubrey Kung
As far as I know, the Sze’s only have one daughter.
She was taken aback by his words.
Nina Sze
Are you making fun of me?
Aubrey Kung
Are you still willing to see her?
They were back to doing their own things when her phone began to be bombarded with calls.
Aubrey Kung
Change your number.
Nina Sze
It’s the only way my editor can reach me.
Aubrey raised his eyebrow.
Aubrey Kung
Then tell her.
Nina Sze
No, it’s alright.
Aubrey Kung
I’ll buy you a new phone.
Aubrey Kung
I can’t concentrate on my book because of your phone.
Aubrey Kung
Get rid of it or I will.
Aubrey’s never seen this expression on her face before. A mixture of desperation and sorrow.
Aubrey Kung
I’ll get you a new phone, throw that away now.
