Nowhere To Go

Vince Hong's eyes were wide as he watched the baby being taken quickly to another room. Then he turned to the two guards. "You won't survive if one of them dies. Just watch!"

"Vin!" his father snapped. Vince Hong fell silent. "Control yourself! You think I don't want to kill them, huh? But that's not the solution!"

Vince Hong caught his breath and started to notice that there was a woman there, and it felt like he recognized her a bit even though her hair was now blonde.

"Hello, I'm Hessy." Hessy came forward first to Vince Hong while extending her hand with a meaningful look. "I'm a friend of... Xue Hua."

Vince Hong understood and followed the flow Hessy gave him. "Ohh, hello. I'm Vince, Xue Hua's son..."

Ohh, gosh! This felt weird and awkward. How could it not be? Vince used to sometimes chat and greet Hessy if she came to the cafe to pick up Ruby.
