Dinner with the Han Family

6:00PM at T'ang Court restaurant.

Miss Jia Han sat at a large table beside her father, Mr.Han and her brother Han Shi as they waited for the Yangs.

Han Jia sat with an annoyed expression on her face.

"Try to look happy," her father insisted.

"Happy?" she repeated, "Yes, very happy to marry an alcoholic womanizer."

Han Jia's brother laughed. He was a young man of twenty-six years old.

"What are you laughing at?" she asked him.

"Don't talk to your brother like that. Stay quiet and be obedient. You are doing this for your family." her father reminded her.

She nodded with an unappeased look on her face, "Yes, father."

...

Mrs.Yang arrived first. She bowed her head respectfully to the table and they stood and did the same.

"Such an honor to see you again Mrs.Yang," said Mr.Han respectfully.

"The honor is mine," replied Mrs.Yang as they all sat.

Mrs.Yang checked her watch and smiled awkwardly as she waited for Daniel.
