Chapter 5
An Asian waitress seated the two. The waitress had an idea that Aaron and Wendy was Chinese. So the waitress asked them what language they spoke. They both responded simultaneously that they spoke Mandarin and as if lightning stuck, the waitress bombarded the two with questions in rapid Mandarin. Wendy was unable to fully understand her while Aaron was fluent. So Aaron replied to these questions.
After a while, the waitress finally asked them what they wanted. Aaron ordered pizza and a liter of coke. Wendy on the other hand, ordered a side of dim sum and two bowls of egg drop soup for later. The waitress walked away after gathering their orders. They conversed a little after she left. Looking at the corner of their eye, they could see her talking to the owner, probably about the questions asked. The owner came over and introduced himself as Gino Chang. The three of them talked for a while and then Gino excused himself, probably going to greet a regular.
They were served their food and Wendy excused herself so she could wash her hands. Aaron asked for two pairs of chopsticks and received them a few minutes later. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wendy talking to Gino Chang. After Aaron saw the smile and nodding of Gino, he could see his little sister smiling and shaking his hand ferociously. After talking a little bit longer, she walked back with a smile on her face and sat down.
"Let's eat An-ge! I'm starving. Last time we had a real meal was on the airplane," she smiled, picked up her chopsticks and took a dim sum onto her plate.
Aaron grabbed a dim sum and put soy sauce onto it. "What were you talking to Gino about?" he asked curiously.
Wendy poured the coke for both of them. After she finished filling them up, she put the bottle down and replied, "I asked for a job! And I got it!" she said excitedly.
Wendy carried a huge smile as opposed to Aaron's disappointed look. "You're not dropping out of school just so I don't have to work as hard, right?"
Wendy laughed, "Of course not! I'm working after school and on weekends. And could you buy the food for us until I start working? I would be the one cooking, right?" she gave a skeptical look.
Aaron sighed in relief, now knowing that Wendy was not dropping out. He spoke, "Yes, yes, of course you're cooking! Just give me a list of stuff you need by tomorrow morning and I'll buy it for you in Denver. I suspect I'm driving you to school tomorrow?"
"Yeah sure! You expect me to know this place already? Give me a few days and I'll start walking," she smiled and chomped onto a piece of her pizza.
"Okay then," he nodded and took a sip from his drink, "But I have to drive you early. It'll take me a while to get to Denver and I have morning classes."
"Oh no!" she hit her head, "Morning classes as in eight o'clock? Does that mean I'll have to be in school at five o'clock?" she exasperated.
"No," Aaron chuckled, "I made sure I didn't have classes so early. My earliest class is at ten thirty. So I'm just gonna drop you off at school at seven, okay?"
She gaped at him in shock, "I'm still gonna be there for an hour! Oh boy."
"Close your mouth. It looks nasty in there," she gave him a raspberry and he continued to smile, "Just go to the library and read. Or you know what? Just write since I know you love doing that."
She thought about her previous composition books filled with words. The fire that consumed their family also consumed Wendy's precious books filled with her writing. She thought about the hours she used to spend writing it all down and then she shook her head.
"Yeah, you're right An-ge! I've got to rewrite those five books! An hour each morning should get me through a few pages. Thanks An-ge!" and she said enthusiastically and began to eat faster than usual.
Aaron's face fell when he realized what he just said. Figuring that it was best to not talk anymore, the conversation ended. They finished their dim sum and had a few more slices of their pizza. After they were full, they asked for the pizza to be packed and their egg drop soup came. They finished that, took their pizza and left the restaurant, not before giving proper greetings to their waitress and Gino Chang. Aaron drove on to their almost bare home. All the major appliances and furniture were left behind by the previous owner. Aaron and Wendy were thankful to it all. Wendy dropped the bag of leftovers on the counter and went to her room to sleep. Aaron sighed and went to sleep as well. It was the end of a long day.
