"My Dhandehelu looks more and more handsome each time I see him, don't you think?" Fulu dreamily sighs.
"I think Mohd is even more handsome than Dhandehelu," Sitti counters back.

"I'm not sure. Maybe another Portugese?" Sitti responds.

The 2 females give a startled yelp.
Sitti is the first to speak up. "Who is that new man, Mother?"
Aisha, curious, pokes her head around the corner and sees Royston. Her heart skips a beat, but she has no idea why.
