"I was thinking." Lena paused before continuing. "That I should get a place for myself."
Shen Mao and Shen Milli's smile dropped. "Why?" They both responded.
"Don't you think I am a bit too old to still be living with my parents?"
"Ridiculous. You can stay here until you get married. And even after marriage, you can still stay here!" Shen Mao spoke.
"How am I supposed to get married if he has to come to see me every time here?"
"Andy visited you fine!"
"That was because he had always done that before. Any other outsider would feel uncomfortable with mom and you always eavesdropping."
"No future son-in-law of mine would feel uncomfortable." Shen Mao replied sternly, ignoring the eavesdropping comment. He and his wife were curious folks. They had not been much cautious of the men Lena hung out with when she was with Andy, but the situation has changed now.
