"Why would my wife deserve something like that? Coming all the way to a foreign country only to marry someone like me."
"I guess so. That's true. Your ability to objectively assess yourself is your strength."
Chief Hanks glared at her as he clicked his tongue. Lily ignored him as she put the steaming gopchang into her mouth and chewed.
"Don't worry about me. Shouldn't you be worried about yourself?"
"Why would I be worried about myself? Ah, that's hot. Fuck."
As the scorching juices oozed out of the gopchang, it almost burned the roof of her mouth. She hissed out a hot breath as she tried to cool the piece of meat in her mouth. Seeing this, Chief Hanks sighed.
"Your mother is worried about you. She's afraid you won't get married and grow old and die alone."
"Why would I be alone? I have my mother, and I even have a chief who consistently calls me out when the time is right."
