Gosh! I woke up so late! I quickly changed into my everyday-home-clothes and walked to the living room.
"Good morning guys!" I greeted, but I don't see anybody there. Suddenly, someone covered my eyes tightly.
"HELP! SOMEONE HELP ME! SCOTT! MITCH! HELP ME!" I screamed for help.
"Shhhh!" A guy shushed me. He sounds familiar and I think it is Scott.
Scott (if I didn't guess wrongly) leaded me to somewhere in the living room and he asked me to sit on the couch. Slowly, he took off his hands and uncovered my eyes.
"Tadaa!" Mitch and Scott said in unison.
Right in front of me, I saw an Iphone 6s (Rose Gold), an Ipad Mini and an Apple Laptop. They each comes with a beautiful casing(cover).
"WOW!" I said.
"Do you like them? Scott and I ordered this a week ago and it arrived this morning when you were still asleep." Mitch said.
"I love them! Thanks guys!" I said as I stood up and hugged them.
"Oh, and we bought you this headphone!" Scott added.

"Oh my gosh! Thanks a lot guys! I really love it too. How do y'all know I love tribal and turquoise?" I asked.
"We didn't know you like turquoise and tribal. Lucky guess!" Mitch replied.
Scott, Mitch and I spent the whole morning downloading apps, music, games and creating social medias for me.
After that, we went out for lunch in a Chinese restaurant. It was fully packed with people! Woah! The food here in this Chinese restaurant must be good.
"Hi there. 'Ni hao'. Number of people?" A Chinese waiter greeted and asked us.
"Three." Scott said and we entered the restaurant. The waiter gave us each a menu with English and Chinese wording in every page.
"It's been too long since I've ever eaten Chinese food." Mitch told us while flipping the menu.
"Me too. It's been like ages!" Scott told us too.
After 15 minutes, Scott and Mitch didn't know what to order except for me, I knew what I wanted to have.
"So Cassie... Have you decided what to eat?" Scott asked.
"Yeap" I replied.
"I have seriously no idea what to eat. I don't even know what is in the food they serve!" Mitch said sadly.
"Don't worry, let me translate for you." I said.
Scott and Mitch both looked at me like I was from out of space.
"You-mean-you-can-translate-Mandarin-to-English?" Scott and Mitch asked.
"Umm yeah. I'm half Chinese, half English. I'm also half Buddhist and half Christian." I told them.
"WHAT!!!" Scott and Mitch shouted. This time, everyone looked at them like they're also out of space.
"I thought your dad is from Maine and your mom's from Texas." Scott said.
"Yeah. It all starts when my real grandfather and grandmother had an accident after my grandmother had a check-up and realized they had a baby girl, who is my mom. Btw, my grandparents are Chinese. My grandmother was alive in that accident, but it was unfortunate for my grandfather. He passed away. After a few months, my grandmother gave birth to my mom and soon remarry to a man named Stephen Bruce, he was an English man from Texas. My grandmother and Stephen migrated to Texas with my mom. My mom grew up there and went to Maine for University studies. A year later in University in Maine, my mom met my dad and a few years later they married and gave birth to a child. I'm the child. At the age of 15, my mom passed away due to an car accident. She was driving back home after buying some groceries in a morning market and a huge lorry banged her car. My mom's car turned and she was sent to a hospital after a few minutes. In the evening, my dad took me to visit her. Not long, she died and since then, my dad went crazy. He started drinking and became a lunatic alcoholic. He hit me everyday and I never wanted to come out from my room. But I had to! He will bang my door and it will break into pieces. My dad will enter my room and continue to hit me. One day, I decided to leave him and his house... Life was tough, but now I felt really happy to have a beautiful and lovely family" I told them my story.
"Oh wow, what a long speech." Mitch said.
"Life was difficult for you, Cassie. We will not torture you like how your father did. We love you, Cassie" Scott said.
"We love you" Mitch added.
I felt so touch and I cried.
"Come'on, let's order our food." I said, trying to change the subject.
"Yeah sure." Scott agreed.
Soon, the waiter served the food we ordered and we dig in quickly cuz we're super hungry!
