And so sitting under the bodhi tree, Fangzheng was accompanying Red Boy.
Red Boy was taken aback. Fangzheng was making sure that he finished the rock!
But he was helpless against it. He could only bite the bullet and sit opposite Fangzheng. Fangzheng did not speak. All he did was look at the moon while sitting under the bodhi tree.
Red Boy looked up as well, his mind whirling as fast as it could. He pondered for a solution to extricate himself from his predicament.
"Jingxin, are Chang'e and the Jade Rabbit really on the moon?" asked Fangzheng suddenly.
"Yes."
"Is that so? Have you seen them?"
"No, but I've heard of them."
"I've heard of them too. Don't stop eating. It will be terrible if you end up starving."
Red Boy bit down with tears welling in his eyes. Nom. Nom. Nom.
"Jingxin, what's the world you are from like?"
