Ch 6
~In the elevator~
Bosco: That was the doctor, wasn’t it?
Ron: That’s the doctor
Bosco: She’s pretty
Ron: Don’t let Myolie hear that...she might eat you alive
Bosco laughed: Oh no, we have the right to check out other people...so
it’s all good
Ron: Uh huh...
Bosco: So, what’s your next move?
Ron: What?
Bosco: Oh come on...she’s probably as interested in you as you are
interested in her...mutual attraction...
Ron: Sounds like the name of a movie
Bosco: No...’Fatal Attraction’
is the name of a movie...some director you are
Ron: Just because I’m part of pop culture shouldn’t mean I need to know
about pop culture
Bosco: And this is why you’re not a script writer...so...you’re next
move?
Ron: I’ll bring her back a souvenir...
Bosco: For your mom?
Ron: No! For Linda...and for my mom
Bosco laughed: I hope you’re not getting the both of them the same
thing
~Doctor’s office~
Mary: So, Dr. Chung how did you and my son meet?
Linda: It was a coincident, he dropped his wallet and I picked it up
Mary: Are the two of you close?
Linda: We just met a while ago...
Mary: Are you by any chance dating my son? It counts even if you’re
casually dating and you don’t consider yourself his girlfriend
Linda: I think you might’ve gotten the wrong idea...we’re just friends,
really...
Mary: Oh, I’m sorry for probing...it’s becoming a habit of mine to
probe when my son introduces me to a female colleague or friend...it’s just I’m
getting old and I’d like to see my son get married and start a family...
Linda: It’s ok...my parents ask similar questions when I introduce them
to a male colleague or friend
Mary: But I bet your parents aren’t worried about you finding a date or
anything...I bet you have so many pursuers since you’re a doctor, well mannered
and pretty too...
Linda: I’m flattered but, I don’t exactly have any pursuers at the
moment
Mary: Or you’re just too busy to notice them?
Linda: Um...maybe...anyways, I’ll have Elaine check you in and lead you
to the procedure room
Mary: Thank you Dr. Chung
~5 days later Taiwan~
Bosco: Finally! We’re done! Now I can enjoy the
scenery and spend some alone time with Myolie
Ron laughed: You literally see her day and night and
you still want to spend more time with her, the only explanation for that is
love
Bosco smiled: Yup...cause honestly I can’t think of
anything else either. Oh, and you...you better buy that doctor friend of yours
something since your mom obviously interrogated her
Ron: I know, I know...I kind of wanted Myolie to
help me out...but since you want to spend time with her...
Bosco heaved a sigh: Fine, before you blame me for
not helping out a pal...you can tag along with us while we go shopping...
Ron: Thanks man, I owe you one
Myolie: Why are you two standing here when everyone
is getting ready to leave?
Bosco: We’re just talking...Ron needs your help with
buying his girlfriend a present
Myolie: What? Girlfriend? Ron Ng! How can you keep
something like that from your best friend?
Ron: Um...I don’t have a girlfriend? She’s just a friend
who also happens to be my mom’s current cardiologist
Myolie: Is she pretty?
Bosco: Yup
Myolie: You knew about her and didn’t tell me? What
else are the two of you keeping from me?
Bosco: That’s about it...I swear
Ron: Ya...so...I need your help...you know how my
mom is with the women I introduce to her...so...what should I get her?
Myolie: Well...there is one thing I can think of...
Ron: Really?
Myolie: It’s this really cute charm bracelet that
comes in a limited number, last I checked a few Taiwan stores still have them
in stock
Ron: You think she’ll like it
Myolie: How would I know? But it is pretty and cute,
and if you get her white, it works with almost everything...so it’s probably
your best bet. Here take a look at it (she shows him a picture of it on her
phone)
Ron: Did you want one too?
Myolie: I was thinking about...but I’m still
contemplating
Ron: I could get you one since I’ll be heading there
anyways...
Myolie: Really?
Bosco looked at him: Really?
Ron: Ya? Why not?
Myolie gave Ron a hug: You’re the best friend ever!
Ron smiled: You’re welcome. So, I guess you two can
spend the day alone together after all
~ A few days later~
Ron finally flew back from Taiwan and had a few days
off before he had to go into the studio for some editing work. He decided to
give Linda a call so that he could give her the present he bought.
~on the phone~
Ron: Hello?
Linda: Hi, and who may this be?
Ron: I’m Ron...Ng, we met a week ago
Linda: Oh, hi...I wasn’t really expecting you to
call
Ron: How come?
Linda: I thought you were just saying that to be
nice
Ron laughed: Oh...well, I could hang up and you can
pretend this call never came through
Linda laughed: It’s ok...so what can I do for you?
Did your mom want to speak to me?
Ron: Well...as an apology for leaving you unattended
with my mom, I bought you a gift and was wondering when you would be free so I
could actually give it to you
Linda: A gift? You really don’t have to, your mom is
a lovely person
Ron: But she did ask you a lot of questions, didn’t
she?
Linda: It’s fine, a lot of my elderly patients ask
me questions along those lines all the time
Ron: Well, when are you free...and if you’re not, I
could always drop by and drop off the gift
Linda: I’m free today, at noon...but I bet you have
lots of work to do, so...
Ron: Noon sounds good, I’ll meet you at the cafe
across from the hospital then
Linda: Oh, ok, see you then, bye
Ron: bye
