“I’m fine, Nawin. Thanks for finally asking. How are you and Porn? How are your classes?”
“The class on the influence of Caravaggio is useful. All of the classes are fine. Noppawan, I think that Porn hates being with me now. I think she is disappointed being here with me.”
“Why?”
“I’m too busy to take her wherever she wants to go.”
“Where does she want to go?”
“I think anywhere but here-New York mostly.”
“Why don’t you go? It is just a day’s journey, isn’t it?”
“I don’t know,” he sighed. “Piggy, I’ve tried to call you twenty times. Why are you at your sister’s?”
“Oh, Nawin, that is a good question. You know how the landlord let four Chinese students rent out an apartment near us.”
“Yes.”
