An Encounter on the Ferris Wheel
A Sacrifice Made.../\/ About two weeks later /\/
||Arron||
I love you, Xibi, don't go!!!
||Hebe||
But I must.
||Arron||
No, you must stay with me. Stay with me.
||Hebe||
Bye Arron.
*Hebe started to disappear *
||Arron||
Heebbbbbbbeeeee. Please, stay, stay, stay with me. I need you.
[End of dream]
Arron's thought: What kind of dream is that? Why did I suddenly dream of her? I must be thinking of her too much. Why did she have to leave me for?
{9:00AM}
[Start of phone call]
||Arron||
Jerry, I won't be going to work okay, I don't feel well.
||Jerry||
Okay, get better then.
||Arron||
Thanks.
[End of phone call]
Arron's thought: Let's go do some reminiscing. I bet the dream is a sign, a sign that I am starting to forget her, and letting her slip from my heart.
[Hebe's house]
||Hebe||
Baby, are you done yet? Mommy want to take you somewhere. But first, we must go eat. Where do you want to go eat?
||Celine||
Yes, mommy I am done. Where are we going?
||Hebe||
You will know when we get there.
||Celine||
ok. I want to eat at Happy Smiles.
||Hebe||
Nice choice, Xilin, high five.
||Celine||
High five, mommy.
*They high-five each other *
||Hebe||
Let's go, then. Happy Smiles, here we come.
[After eating]
||Hebe||
Ok, let's go Xilin.
||Celine||
Can you tell Xilin, where we are going now?
||Hebe||
When mommy makes a promise, she will never break it. So do you remember what this promise is?
||Celine||
We are going to the the abusement park?!?!
*Hebe chuckled *
||Hebe||
YES, we are going to the abusment park.
||Celine||
Yay
[At the amusement park]
||Celine||
Come on, mommy, hurry.
||Hebe||
Okay, which ride do you want to ride on?
||Celine||
The merrish wheel.
||Hebe||
Okay, there are three ferris wheel; the pink and blue, green and purple, and black and white one. Which one do you want to go on?
||Celine||
The purple and green one!!!
||Hebe||
But aren't you scared? That one is very high.
||Celine||
Nope, is mommy scared?
||Hebe||
No, and anyway, I like that one too. Okay, let's get in line.
*At the cart just before the person closed the door to the cart someone ran up and stop the door from closing.*
||Celine||
Uncle Arron!!!
||Arron||
Hi cutie, we meet again.
*Celine laughed *
||Celine||
Can uncle Arron sit with us?
||Hebe||
No, Celine, he can't.
||Celine||
Pleasseeee, mommy.
Arron's thought: mommy?
*Celine's eyes started getting watery. *
||Hebe||
Aiya, okay, he can. Sir, you can let him in.
||Arron||
Xibi, we meet again.
||Celine||
Mommy and uncle Arron know each other?
||Arron||
Yes, but this is your mommy?
||Celine||
Yes!!!
*Hebe started to cough *
||Celine||
NO!!! this is not my mommy, she is my nanny.
||Hebe||
But you said mommy.
||Celine||
No, I didn't, I called her nanny.
*Celine smiled innocently *
||Celine||
Celine is so happyyyyy. Uncle Arron, do u like the merrish wheel? Celine like it very much, Celine will never miss a chance to ride it. Except for that time when daddy had to leave.
||Arron||
Of course, the ferris wheel is uncle's favorite ride. why do u like it so much?
||Celine||
Really??? It is mo.. my nanny favorite ride too and me three. Celine don't know why, Celine have always liked it.
*By this time, Hebe is starting to get nervous and avoid Arron's eye contact as much as possible *
||Arron||
So why did you choose this one out of the other ferris wheel?
||Celine||
Celine liked the color.
||Arron||
Me Too.
||Celine||
Really? Mo..my nanny said she likes the color of this one too.
||Arron||
So what is your nanny's name?
||Celine||
She has a very nice name. Her name is Hebe.
||Arron||
Yes, it is a very nice name. Sounds like it belong to a sweet and caring person.
||Celine||
She is, how does uncle Arron know?
*Arron winked at Celine *
||Arron||
Uncle has his ways
||Celine||
Nanna, why are you so quiet? Are you sick? Should we go home now? Celine don't want Nanna to be sick.
||Hebe||
No, I am fine.
||Arron||
Hebe, she is right. You should go home if you sick.
||Hebe||
It is my business, Arron. Yes, Celine, Nanna does feel sick, let's go home.
||Arron||
Okay.
*By this time, the ferris wheel has stopped *
||Celine||
Bye, uncle Arron.
||Arron||
Bye, my cutie pie, Celine
Hebe's thought: Why did he say my? He doesn't know, Xilin is his child, does he?
`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
*Arron knocked on Jerry's door*
||Jerry||
Come in.
*Arron came through the door*
||Jerry||
Hey, Arron, what sup?
||Arron||
Nothing, just that we have a party to attend next week.
||Jerry||
What party? I don't want to go. Those business parties are not parties.
||Arron||
You must go. This party is important, it is organized by a big fish.
||Jerry||
What big fish?
||Arron||
Ms. Choi organized this party, and you know if we are on her good side, doing business with her will be a piece of cake.
||Jerry||
You can be my representer.
||Arron||
No, I can't. This party is unlike the regular parties we attend. You must take Celine and your wife with you, understand?
||Jerry||
Although, she doesn't have a husband, Ms. Choi loves to see happy families. But don't worry, I will be there too.
||Arron||
I thought this was a family party.
||Jerry||
I never said I can't go. She invited me, too.
```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
/\/In the car, in front of the party/\/
||Jerry||
Hebe, are you ready?
||Hebe||
No, not yet, you go in first.
||Jerry||
Are you sure?
||Hebe||
Yeah, I need to re- tie Celine pig tails.
||Jerry||
Hebe. It looks fine, come on.
||Hebe||
It will be quick, just go in first.
/\/At the party/\/
*Arron spotted Jerry and went over *
||Arron||
Hey, Jerry, how long have you been here?
||Jerry||
Not long, how about you?
||Arron||
Half an hour ago, I must give Ms. Choi the honor, of course. This is a family event, where is your family?
||Jerry||
They are here somewhere. How about your family?
||Arron||
Stop messing with me, I don't have a family like you. So lucky you got a wife, Celine and a nice nanny too.
||Jerry||
You met our new nanny?
||Arron||
Yeah, I met her the other day. Jerry, I am warning you, you better not mess around with her, and don't overwork her. She has a life too.
!~! Flashback!~!
||Jerry||
Congrats, you got the job
||the nanny||
oh, mu thanks.
||Hebe||
I am sure you will love our daughter, and she will love you too?
||the nanny||
haha, I hope so
||Hebe||
Nanny, how old are you?
||the nanny||
I should be 69 now
||Jerry||
Wow, what a nice age to be in
!~! End of flashback!~!
||Jerry||
I never said she didn't. I will treat her as best as I can. Arron I didn't know your taste in woman was so different from me. I like young beautiful woman. Not saying she is not beautiful but her time has passed.
||Arron||
Yo, she too is beautiful. She is a little older than me but I don't mind.
||Jerry||
Okay, but how about I introduce you to a young lady tonight since you envy my family so much.
Wait here! I will bring her over. Do not move!!! understand?
||Arron||
Whatever
*Jerry walked to get the lady and walked back in less than 3 minutes. *
||Jerry||
Arron, meet Amber.
||Arron||
Hello, Miss.
||Amber||
Hi
||Jerry||
Get to know each other because we all will be working with each other. I want Amber to be taking care of the sales department, ok?
||Arron||
Yeah, it doesn't matter with me. But Amber, how much experience do you have?
||Amber||
Umm, not much sir. I have just gotten out of college and I started working last year.
||Jerry||
Arron, let's not get into detail about work tonight. Well, you both enjoy yourself, I see some friend I know, I will go talk to them. Have fun.
*Jerry whispered in Arron's ear and walked away*
||Jerry||
Don't worry, I give you permission to date her
||Arron||
Jerry, Jerry.
*Jerry ignored Arron *
||Arron||
So, how are the stars tonight?
||Amber||
It is pretty bright, I guess.
||Arron||
Uh, haha, yeah. So do you want a drink? I will get it for you.
||Amber||
No, thanks, I don't want to bother you.
*Hebe walked across the room with Celine *
Hebe's thought: Yalun is with a girl? Hebe, you are married, don't worry about him. Stop caring so much.
||Celine||
UNCLE ARRON.
||Hebe||
Shh, Xilin. He is busy.
*Celine whispered in Hebe's ear *
||Celine||
Mommy, there is uncle Arron, can we go see him?
||Hebe||
No, baby, we shouldn't disturb him. It is rude.
*Back to Amber and Arron *
||Arron||
Excuse me, Amber.
||Amber||
Yes. Have a nice night.
||Arron||
You, too.
*Arron ran to Celine and swooped her up *
||Arron||
How is my favorite little niece?
||Celine||
Uncle Arron!
||Arron||
Do you want to eat? Uncle will go get you some.
||Hebe||
Yalun, don't bother, you can get back to your partner.
||Celine||
Nanna, who is Yalun?
||Hebe||
No one, honey.
||Arron||
It is your nanna's boy..
||Hebe||
Arron!!!
||Arron||
So do you want something to eat? If you want some, I will take you there. Come on.
||Hebe||
Ya..Arron, please don't bother. You can go back to..
||Celine||
Yes, can uncle take me to get some sprite?
||Arron||
Of course I can, come on.
||Hebe||
Xilin!
||Celine||
Yes, nanna.
||Arron||
It is ok, Celine, you don't have to come. I will go get it for you. Nanna, don't seem to like me much. Don't go anywhere ok? Uncle will be very fast.
*Arron glared at Hebe and whispered *
||Arron||
I know, Celine won't go anywhere, but you, I know will leave. You better not, or I am going to do something you will regret
*Hebe gulped *
||Arron||
Be right back, cutie.
*Arron went to get the sprite and came back *
||Arron||
Here you go, princess.
||Celine||
Thank you.
||Arron||
So, princess, where is the queen?
||Celine||
Huh?
||Arron||
Where is your mommy?
||Celine||
She is ummm.
*Celine glanced down *
||Hebe||
She is with sir.
||Arron||
Really? Be..be. I was with him awhile ago.
||Hebe||
Yes. Why do you want to see her?
||Arron||
I just want to see how my friend's wife look like.
||Celine||
Uncle Arron, Nanna is...
*Hebe eyed Celine *
||Arron||
What is it, Celine?
||Celine||
Umm, nothing. Nothing. I-I-I need to go to the girls' room.
||Hebe||
Okay, come on, Xilin. Excuse us, Arron.
