"You brother failed to share with us that he is now in a relationship", their father spoke.
"Oh that. I'll leave you to it. I'll just give you some privacy",
"You also knew", his mother sounded betrayed.
Ling Ling quickly rushed to his mother hugging her arm while she massaged her back.
"You know I didn't do it on purpose mom. Ling Feng forced me",
Ling Feng gave him a death stare as Long Ling tried to annulate the bomb he was starting.
"It's settled then. No excuses this time. You can't possibly refuse this. Or else me you one and only mother will become I'll with sadness. That my sons don't regard my presence anymore in their life", she had changed her tone so quickly now it sounded as if she was on the brink of tears.
Ling Feng rolled his eyes but still gave in," What mom?",
"As soon as you get discharged. Dinner at home. All of us as a family", her word had quickened with an evident smile filled with excitement.
