"Oh shoot! Seriously man, it's nearly the end of the world and you're still asleep?" Lisa scolded.
"Mmmm....." Franco mumbled while scratching his head.
"Wake up! You need to prepare yourself."
"For what? You can go on without me."
"Negative, Brian called me last night..." Lisa started.
"Huh? Did he finally admit that he's gay and confesses to you?"
"What? No you idiot! He called to inform me that the Chinese tycoon that we bagged is here in Australia. It seems that old man kung fu wants to have a business dinner with us."
"What does it have to do to with me?"
"Because you're coming with me, I'll introduce you to some of my associates; to prepare you for a better role."
"Screw that! I prefer to lie down than to talk boring stuff."
"You will! That's an order!"
"No way!"
"You wi... hey! Why is your bed wet? Sweet mother of mercy Franco! You pissed on your bed?" Lisa sarcastically shouted.
"No I didn't!"
"Then why is it wet? I am going to tell mum!" Lisa laughed devilishly.
"Shut up bro! That's not wee! It's water! You see? Here's the bottle and I forgot to cover it last night!" Franco childishly explained.
"Looks wee to me! I am really going to tell Mum."
"Lisa Pranpriya Manobal! It is not wee!" Franco shouted.
"Hey why are shouting at each other?" Lisa's mum interfered.
Lisa grinned "Uhm Mum..."
"OH NO! NO!... I MEAN YES! YES BRO I'LL BE JOINING YOU IN YOUR BUSINESS DINNER!" Franco panicked.
"Really? If that's the case, then I'll not tell Mum that you..."
"Waaah!!!" Franco shouted.
"Franco! Stop shouting! What's wrong with you?" Chitthip scolded.
"Nothing Mum, we're just greeting each other." Lisa smiled.
"Fine... but pipe it down okay? You're disturbing the neighborhood."
"Sorry Mum." Lisa said.
After Chitthip went out.
"Checkmate! Bang!" Lisa imitated a cowboy shooting a revolver.
"You sick! You're sick bro!"
"Don't care! Now move your ass out of the bed! We will be buying some fresh coat for you."
"Fine!"
"But don't piss on it okay?"
"I said it's water! It was spilled water!"
"I know! I was the one who put it there yesterday!" Lisa laughed.
"You Monster!"
