A Rare Sight Indeed
Recorded Memories
“Henry, what the hell is this?” She pointed at the camera he was holding. It was focused on her. He by zooming in literally like placing the video camera too near to her face. The camera was just above her nose as he told her, more like crashing her nose that how he zoomed in. And as she said to back off by pushing him by his stomach, he “zoomed out” by walking backwards away from here, and stopped as he reached the corner of the room farthest from Amber.
“You lost. You finally lost a bet. All the teams I chose won over yours. Hard to believe, but I actually won.” The video was a bit shaky since he was doing his victory dance, still holding his camera, and then he focused on the pissed off expression of his dearest llama. “Everyone, this is how a pissed off llama looks like. So if you see one like this, I think you guys should run for your lives. Fast!” He narrated to give a documentary-like feel for the video.
“Turn that camera off or I will break it into two.” She threatened him, standing up from her seat, trying to get the camera from him.
“Now, I am running away from my llama. Can anyone help me, please?” He faced the video camera for it to focus on him as he ran away from Amber. In the background, it was recording Amber chasing after Henry.
“This is how my llama named Josephina, yes, not Josephine, but Josephina, chases her very handsome and cuddly-wuddly dog named Henry also known as Violin Boy.” He continued on filming the chase between the two animals – a rare sight, indeed.
“Wait!” He turned to face Amber, stopping her and he did it successfully as she just stood there waiting for his next move. “Let me changed the setting into night version, for more thrilling feel. There,” after changing the setting he once again focused the camera at Amber. He never stopped recording.
“You are a lousy cameraman.” Amber teased as she went back to her seat, not letting Henry to get to her nerves anymore.
“Wait a sec. You are still doing it.” Henry followed Amber back to the living room, switching back his camera’s setting to normal video setting that was why the camera for a brief moment focused on Amber’s pink bunny slippers.
“What are you talking about?” He was recording their conversation. Camera focused on Amber again.
“This is how Amber acts.” He spoke in the background. “And the Best Actress award goes to Josephina Liu for her role in The Thrilling and Almost Deadly Chase, A Henry ‘Violin Boy’ Lau Film.” He made cheering sounds as if there was really crowd cheering because she just won an award.
“Since you won the bet fair and square, fine, I will do it.” Amber looked directly at the camera.
“Really? Are you sure about this?”
“You don’t want me to do it anymore? Okay.”
“No. No. I want you to still do it. Tell me if you are ready to begin.”
Amber took a deep breath, closed her eyes, internalizing, thinking about what will happen after she did the punishment for losing their bet.
Henry’s laughter can be heard in the background as Amber did the “Gwiyomi”. He was the first person to see Amber do such a thing, showing her aegyo and it was caught on camera.
