Chapter 2 ? Wo yao hui Taiwan le ~ I am returning to Taiwan
4:30am, the outside world pass the windows was still in total blackness. All that could be heard was the usual sounds of peace and emptiness. There were no sounds of people, no sounds of care, no sounds of friendship.
San Cai did not sleep the whole night. After thinking it over many many times, her decision was made.
San Cai turned around and faced Dao Ming Si. Seeing his face, yi fu ke ai de shuai lian, yi fu hen jiu mei na me jin de lian, yi fu she bu de jiao sheng de shuai lian. Ta zhi hao tang zhe kan zhe zhe ke ai de jia huo shuai. ( a very cute sleeping face, a face that has not been so close for a long time, a face that she did not want to awake )
...................................
5:30 am ~ the alarm clock went off. Xin fu de shi guan guo qu le. ( The precious moments were gone) Dao Ming Si woke up. He opened his "si yu yan" (dead fish eyes) and saw San Cai watching him. Ah Si leaned forward and gently kissed San Cai and then he got up to get ready for work.
"Ah Si......."
"Zen me?" (wat?) Miss me already? Dao Ming Si teased.
SC: "I have somthing to tell you."
DMS: "Then say"
SC: "Wo yao hui Taiwan le" ( I am going back to Taiwan)
"oh sure, Lau guan jia! (called for the housekeeper)"
the housekeeper at the door: "Yes shao ye, what can I do for you?"
[San Cai sat up on the bed]
DMS: "Come in"
[Lau guan jia comes in ]
DMS: "help San Cai book a fleight to Taiwan (turns to SC) When do you want to leave?"
San Cai searches Dao Ming Si's eyes hoping to find some sadness in her departure ~ but found none
"tomorrow..."
DMS to housekeeper: " book the fleight for tomorrow and the return fleight 2 days later"
SC: "No, I leave tomorrow, but don't book the returning flieght yet, I would not return within a short time."
DMS: "WAT?" [stopped fiddling with his tie]
SC: "I won't be coming back.......at least not for a while........do you want to come with me?"
DMS: "YOU GONE CRAZY? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?"
SC: "Ah Si, I've had enough of it! I can't live this way for the rest of my lifetime."
DMS: "Bai Chi! (stupid) You telling me that you can't stand living in luxury for a lifetime? You crazy or wat?"
SC: "Yes, I am bai chi, this is wat every girl desires .....but I am not happy at all. It seems as though I have everything, but in reality, all I have is wu liao qi de deng dai (time for me to wait on) Everyday I start waiting from 6am to 2am. I don't even know what I am doing, wo kuai yao feng le! (I am going to go crazy soon!) Everyday i pass my time waiting for you to come home. Zhe zhong sheng huo wo guo bu xia qu le! (I can't stand this kind of lifestyle anymore!) "
DMS: "No one ask you to sit here and wait for me to come home everyday BAI CHI! You can go out and do other things!"
SC: "Go out? how? your mom ordered all the servants to follow me around. I have no privacy at all and I am not allowed to go to any malls, parks, or basically anywhere that has people! I hardly have any friends here. Ah Si, ni zhi dao ma, I've planned of running away, climbing from this window, sneaking out from backdoors, but everytime I would come back ~ because of you. " [tears stumbled down her eyes] " I can't just disappear like how i want to and runaway back to Taiwan, because I know you would worry about me. It has already been 5 years, I really can't live on like this ~ ni pei wo hui Taiwan ba." (You come back to Taiwan with me) She was now pleading him with tears streaming out.
The phone rang and interrupted their conversation.
Ah Si picked up the phone...he didn't want to listen to it but it was some very important phone call.
(Ah Si's back facing SC with the phone)
San Cai looked at Ah Si one last time and walked out of the room ~ then off of the Dao Ming property.
