Quid Pro Quo Part IV

“Personally, those who fight to protect something will have this special strength with them, so they won't be defeated that easily. The proof is this hotel. You guys have been fighting for it, even though you don’t have fighting skills at all. The hotel still lasts until today. That is the achievement of your effort that you guys should be proud of. And I believe that Grandpa is very proud of you and everyone in the town.”

Wisana winked after speaking, holding his index finger up.

“My mom always told me since I was a kid that no matter how hopeless you feel or how many hard times you face, do not look down hopelessly. Tilt your chin up, look right into the sky, and keep trying. As long as you’re alive, there’ll always be a way, because there is always a solution to every problem.”

Wisana said, reaching up to smack his own chest softly.

“And you guys’ solution is right here, sitting with you.”

Listening to that, Jeng chuckled, shaking his head amusedly.
