"Where do you wanna go?"

"Wherever you take me," Yitian answered.

Thinking for a while, Liying answered, "It's already late so I'll just show you the nearby park today. Tomorrow we can go somewhere else—there are so many places you will love." Without waiting for his reply, she grabbed his hand. "Come lets go."

"Is your friend not coming?"

"Carl?" When he nodded his head, she answered, "He said he will stay back and help grandma."

"Who is he? I mean, how are you guys related?"

"He is our neighbor. His parents are always out of the country, he stays with a caretaker and a few helpers," she answered.

"I see." Contemplating for a while, he asked, "Are you two close?"

"Well, not really. I met him after coming here and we have become good friends by now."

Satisfied with her answer, Yitian smiled, "That is nice, it's good to make more friends."

"Carl is nice, you will like him too."
