"Anyway let's move on. I need to inform you about the your new living arrangements." Aunt Rhee switched topics.

"Min Hee you're going to live in a boarding house." Aunt Rhee announced suddenly. She knew she had said she was going to take care of Min Hee but her schedule was so busy because of her job it was near impossible.
