I blush scarlet on the spot, even though she can't see me. I know she won't be pleased if she finds out I'm being with someone now.
" I won't, mom. I'm got busy a lot with work and having fun sometimes only," I assure her.
I'm having fun all right. Just not the sort of fun that she has in mind.
"How's Daddy?" I ask.
"Oh, you know. Badminton mad, and cooking new recipe mad. Grhh, he has to keep on the go or he'll go mad if he quit once, I bet." She starts nagged about daddy.
"Lol. It's better than he sitting on his backside all day, though." I say, collecting a mug from the cupboard.
And I make my way to the fridge.
"Darling, bao bei. He made such a fuss about leaving the city before, but I knew he would be dead in a few years if I didn't get him out. Now I can't tie him down for anything. He's always got something happening here," she continues.
I open the fridge, searching for fresh milk. But found no of it.
