"No, I was transferred to another department, and the hospital gave me three days off."
"Ohh, you were transferred? To where?" their neighbor, Auntie Wu, asked enthusiastically.

"Yeah, it's relatively easier, and I don't have to work night shifts anymore."
"Hey, Mian, why didn't your boyfriend come with you?"
The neighbors were really gossipy; some of her mother's friends were nosy and couldn't help themselves from asking.
"We broke up."
