“Mom.” Tang Yin patted her chest, letting out a sigh of relief after she took a frightened look behind her- the asshole wasn’t following her, fortunately. She didn’t know what she’d do otherwise.
“Yin! School’s over?” Mrs. Tang greeted as she added some coal for fuel. The twelfth graders were let out around this time, and it wasn’t long before business would come flooding in. “Heh, here, put your bag down and help mom out.”
School ended pretty late for the twelfth graders, and they’d always get something light to eat before going back home for dinner.
“Mm hm. You seem happy today, mom- is business good?” Tang Yin asked curiously.
“Heh heh, that’s because Lin Yi said he has a New Orleans barbeque sauce recipe- he said he’ll bring it to me tomorrow for our stand to get better business.” Tang Yin said, unable to contain her joy. “Apparently kids like you like this Orleans flavor thing, so business will probably start getting really good when the recipe comes in!”
