It's 3 o'clock in the morning and they both are sitting opposite of each other. His arms are cross over his chest. While she is too shy to look at him. "Can you at least put on some pants?" He look down to see that he is only wearing an underwear. He is embarrassed "This is my apartment what i want to wear is my business. Even if i don't wear anything is still my business. Why you little girl want to tell me what to do here?!" She push up her glasses and look at the TV screen which is still blasting news about the local police had captured a rapist. "I am not telling what to do. Just that i am a girl and you are a boy." When he hear that she label him as a boy, his chest got swell bit. Suppressing his smile. He clear his throat "I don't care about that now. What i want to know is that why are you in my apartment?"
"Aunty Mei allow me to stay in a room here temporary. Once i get my dormitory sorted out, i will move out."
"She did not tell me and this is my place why is she letting you in here? I am the owner?!"
"She said i can stay here for awhile, since you will be overseas for two months."He sigh and look at the TV which is blasting on fake rental services." He look at her and ask "Where is aunty Mei?"
"She is in the hospital for surgery. Didn't she tell you?"
"No i don't recall at all. Which hospital?" She pick up her phone and scroll through. "Im asking you ..." she push her phone to his face. "Too far can't see those tiny words." She move to the seat nearer to him but she refuse to look at him. "Come on! I am not that ugly to look at!"
"You are still not dress up."
"You haven't seen a man in underwear before? What about your father or brother?"
"I dont have to see them in underwear around the house." He takes the phone and enlarge the words. "Can you please let me stay till then?" He stands up she shoot her eyes quickly dart somewhere else. His crotch is at her eye level. "I need to talk to aunty Mei first. You go find another place to stay. " He walk towards his bedroom. She runs up to block him. "But I can't find a place to stay within a short period of time." He move closer to her and stare down at her face. "Lady look. I am a man. You are a girl. What makes you think it's logical for us to live in this apartment?" She keep silence. He sigh. "I give you 2 weeks. Should be enough for you to find a suitable place. Meanwhile don't play your violin in the middle of the night!" After he sat that he open and enter his bedroom. She looks rather sad standing there. Trying not to feel sorry, he close the door slowly and attempt to sleep. He toss and turn till 6 am where he hear the sound of the chopping board. That's when he finally fall asleep.
