Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 12
Today boy and girl come in my restaurant. Boy and girl alike all over. Boy, he shy and just barely touch girl's elbow when he open door for girl. He just one giant; he almost touch door with head. He cut his hair short like Chinese and it is black like Chinese. But curly. Not Chinese. My wife laugh and laugh when I tell her how big he is. American all look alike, She say, all big with skin white like rice and eyes that slant down. We laugh all over when I tell her American say Chinese eyes slant up and skin yellow.
This giant of boy have blue eyes but girl seem to like him anyway. But she not sure. Some times they start to laugh together, but not much. She make her back straight and her arms stiff. She has hair and eyes color of litchi nuts.
