The Night That Unveiled Secrets

Mr. Huang Yang, do you already have your gift for the ancestors? —asks Zhang Huaixian.

—Yes, we uphold the tradition every year. —Huang responds.

—Yes, I remember, Mr. Huang. I remember that with my parents and grandparents, we would bring an offering. But you know, sir, I am happy because this year I won’t be alone; you are my family now. —and he hugs him, with a radiant smile on his face.

—Wait, you’re leaving me breathless. —exclaims Yang, as his face lights up with a mixture of surprise and joy.

—I’m sorry, Mr. Huang. What I longed for the most was to have a true family. But don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. From now on, you will be my older brother. —says Zhang, with eyes shining with emotion.

—Zhang Huaixian, we will go out right now to buy you clothes. —announces Huang, with a determined and proud expression on his face.

—Do you not like my attire? It is clean and practically new. For example, these shoes are two years old. —Huaixian asked.
