A Dream Life - 36 S.W.A.K.
Mr. Cui telephones me, "Josephine, it's Min, my friend Hung Kei should have told you about my gym business."
"O, yes, Mr. Cui, Hung Kei paid me your advertising fees. It is enough for a film. I have a film script for you, do you have an email address, please send an email to my business email address, I will send you a film script, waiting for your mail, bye."
I'd sent him the following script:
At Home:
"Mom, I'm home."
"Where did you get the money to fly back?"
"It's your remittance for my study in the States. I'd used up all the money, that's why coming home to ask you for more. I haven't graduated, I need another US$ 30,000, plus living allowance..."
"You should better get a job, my brother needs a shop assistance, go to work, the whole summer may help you to understand how difficult it is to earn money."
"There are a lot of mosquitoes, don't you afraid of Zika virus?"
"I am more afraid of you."
In Lantau Island, Changsha beach, Shuikou Village, a grocery store:
"Cui Min, you look after this store, I need to go to Tung Chung to buy medicine, this is the price list of all the goods."
An hour later:
"Hello, do you know where can I get to this address? I haven't been to here for ten years."
She is smiling to Cui Min.
"It is quite difficult to reach, please stay here, don't go away. I'll be back soon."
Cui Min rushes to the barbershop, asking the hairdresser how to get to that house, and it was only behind his grocery store.
Cui Min gives ten dollars to the hairdresser, in case uncle comes back, to give Cui Min a phone call.
Cui Min takes this fat girl going to the opposite direction from her destination.
Cui Min asks her, "what should I address you, Miss? Are you shifting back home, or only visiting your relatives during vacation?"
"My surname is Fong, you can call me Ji. I'd lost my job recently, I do not have money to pay rent, so I must come to live with grandma."
Telephone rings, its the hairdresser, "I'd told your uncle you went to toilet, come back quickly."
So Cui Min says to Ji, "Ji we'd better hurry, it may rain at anytime, even the sun is so bright, it will rain, come run home with me."
They ran back to the grocery store, and directly to the back of the store, that is her grandma's home.
To Cut It Short, says not the hairdresser:
(The aim of this film is to promote Cui Min's muscle)
One day:
Min's uncle went to Tung Chung again.
Min and Ji going to Changsha beach.
When Min trying to hold Ji's hand while walking on the sand beach, a boy is screaming for help, he is drowning.
Min quickly takes off his t-shirt, and jumps into the water, swimming to save the boy.
At night, Min invites Ji and her grandma to the grocery store, Min cooks dinner.Uncle says, "Min, you didn't tell me she is your guest."
Grandma says, "I thought you want to begged me for forgiveness."
"No, you should better take all of your garbage home, including the fish bones you'd just thrown out."
"You'd better not thrown your garbage into my garbage bin, aren't you too poor, no money to buy your own garbage bin."
"I have only a little bit of litter, no need to buy a garbage bin, you are too unreasonable."
The night is still young; they go to have another dinner, separately.
The summer is ended:
Min must to go back to university, he wrote a letter telling Ji his hostel address, and sealed with a kiss.
Min put the letter to Ji's grandma's mail box after dinning with uncle, and then he took the bus to Tung Chung.
Ji got a job in Tuen Mun, she decided to find a place to live in Tuen Man, so she left Lantau Island in the morning.
Grandma doesn't know English, so she takes the letter to the barbershop, asking the hairdresser, "What is written on the envelope?"
"SWAK." said the hairdresser.
"That bad boy as bad as his uncle, he wrote corpse!"
The end.
