Permission

Mother Wang and the Father stepped out of the kitchen area and wandered over to sit around the living room table. Winn moved so his parents could sit directly across from Keng and Lily made herself at home in between Jacob and Keng while Philip flanked his left. 

"What's this all about?" The Wang siblings' Father spoke.

"Uh, sir…" Keng started when he realized he hadn't gotten his name. "What's your… Name if you don't mind me asking?"

"Fan'r." The Pink fox answered. "Lily said you had something important to ask us. Judging from Jacob's expression, I hope you aren't trying to ask my daughter's hand in marriage. She's barely fourteen."

"Oh, no no no no no!" Keng waved. "It's not like that at all."

"No? My sister ain't good enough for you?" Jacob leaned into Keng like he was offended. 

"Shut up, Jacob. It's not like that at all!" Lily pushed his face away.
