Stuart and Edie got into the car, and she was still watching the fish in the tank. Stuart reminded her, "Fasten your seat belt." "Oh," Edie reacted and finally put down the fish tank to fasten the seat belt. On the way back, Stuart asked casually, "You seem to like goldfish a lot?"
Edie nodded, "Yes, When I was a child, my family was too poor to have a full meal. Let alone to buy such things. Once when I was sick, my mother asked me what I wanted. I said I wanted a goldfish, so my mother bought me two."
Edie took a pause and continued, "Not long after that, my mother passed away. It wasn't until I grew up when I realized that my mother knew she had cancer, so she wanted to satisfy my meaningless requirements in the last days of her life."
Stuart looked at the expression on Edie's face from the car mirror. He could tell that she had some emotions, but she did not feel they seem to be too sad. This relieved his worry. "Why didn't you get another one?"
