CONVERSATION

Award

Three years later...

A meadow scenery with a wildflower blooming everywhere, clean air, clear skies, and the harmonious rustling of the leaves... a stress-free haven.

"Tzuyu, dear!"

"Tzuyu?!"

"Chou Tzuyu!!!"

After calling his name three times, he jolted up from lying on the grass with headphones while napping under the blue sky.
He slides down the headphone to his neck and then turn his head to where the voice came from, he smile widely when it's his mother waving which coming toward him.

As long as she reached Tzuyu, she sit right next to him and nudge him by her shoulder, "You miss your Dad again, huh?"

Tzuyu smiled and slightly nodded.

His mom let out a deep sigh and said, "it's been two years since he's gone..."

"two years..." Tzuyu mumbled and look up at the sky flaunting his side view to his mother and squinting his eyes as it was too bright.

"I know he is just watching us, behind that clouds, and very much proud of how you become, my dear" she pats Tzuyu's shoulder and then lean her head to it.

"...I'm so proud of you too" his mother continues.

Three years had passed and there are so many things that happened to Tzuyu's life, including how he became the man of the family after his father passed away, a year after his mother came back to them and became a complete family for a while.

"Let's go home now? Your sister and niece are waiting at the car"

Tzuyu stood up abruptly then reached his hand to help his mother to stand, "Let's go Mom... I'm afraid I'm gonna stay here forever" he jokingly said, his mother then giggled.

"Vacation is over dear... we have to go back home and work again, especially now that our hospital will receive a prestigious award... it's all because of you" she paused and ruffle his hair. "My handsome CEO... the woman you will marry would be so lucky to have you. You have it all... handsome, smart, hot, kind? Hmm..." she paused then halt from walking and face his son, "sometimes, you should control your temper toward our employees, dear, you scared them" then pinch his nose.

"Mom~" he whined.

"Uh-oh! Lily is coming" the conversation was cut off when a five-year-old girl come running at them. Tzuyu immediately crouches down to catch the girl and then carries her.

"Hello, uncle Tzu! Hello grandma! Mommy is waiting in the car" Lily said.

"You become heavier every day, my baby" Tzuyu cooed. "Okay, gonna put you down now... let's race to your Mom, baby... in 1 2 3...go!"

Tzuyu was about to step when Lily seemed not to care, "Uncle, I want a piggy ride" she demanded.

Tzuyu's mom just laugh at the scene, "ok guys, come on... enough with the game, uncle Tzu and Mommy Jihyo have a meeting at 3 this afternoon, so let's go?"

"Aye! Aye! grandma"

Tzuyu crouch down suddenly and asked Lily to hop on his back, he look at his mom and smile. "Mom, I love piggy rides too" he said, then Lily immediately ride on his back and giggled. "You're the best uncle ever!" Lily exclaimed.
