Mom, was it love at first sight between you and dad?
He was good-looking but his family was too poor.
Mom, did you have a first love?
No.
Hei Shan laughed. How e? There was a very handsome Kuomintang officer who pursued your mother.
Why didn’t the Kuomintang work out? Where did the man go?
I don’t know.
Hei Shan laughed again. Where do you think he went?
Did he retreat to Taiwan? Or was he captured?
He was executed.
Mom, your name is Wu Yang, but my grandfather’s last name is Liu. Why isn’t your full name Liu Wu Yang?
There are too many Lius out there.
I don’t want to be like everyone el.
