His true self

Taking Su along, he runs through the crowd, trying to blend in. Though many slaves wear plain clothes, he was wearing a very stylish set of clothes. Nobody would have thought of him as a slave. They continue to push through until they exit the shopping area as he begins walking the sidewalk.

"I think we lost them," he says.

Su, still in shock, says, "you mean to tell me that woman owns you? You are a slave?"

"Yeah," he responds with the same attitude as he had before.

"Wait a minute, I can't be with you then. I'm going to get in trouble if we get caught."

"Don't worry about it. If we get caught, just pretend you caught me and deliver me to them."

"That's not funny. Maybe I should leave now. I can't get caught up in this."
