BOUNCE OFF

[SINGAPORE]

"This is a surprise Xiu," Honey asked the woman sitting on the long couch.

"It's overdue. I should have visited you when you gave birth." She greeted the married woman holding a child in her arms.

After their marriage in Hong Kong, Hiu Ying or Honey and Sheng Zheng settled in Singapore. Both lawyers opened a firm and chose to be a citizen, bringing up their children far away from their birthplace.

"You were still grieving. I know you would want to bury yourself with work." Honey set the child inside the crib and relaxed herself on the divan beside her. "Besides, I know you would hate to be around me because all I talked about was my babies and how beautiful they are."

They both laughed at Honey's candid statement. She missed her best friend who knew her from head to toe. Kidding about the facts in their life was their way to relieve themselves of how bad their choices were.
