"How are you?" "Fine, I am...fine." "What are you doing?" "I..." "I am shopping with a friend." "Let's come out and have some fun." "What fun?" "Okay." "Ivan, I have thought about it for long."

"So you are superstitious." "I didn't notice that." "I am not." "But when I was a kid, grandma said..." "Now I know she was right." "She is still waiting for you." "You didn't teach me how to find you again." "I should come back more often." "You come back every month already." "When she could still walk, and have sense." "She cried every time she saw me away." "I once considered maybe it is better that I don't come back." "Luckily you didn't do so." "For every of your return." "She could predict it." "What a magic power!" "Now, no longer bounded by the body, her power must be even stronger." "She will protect us." "Especially you." "Though I am well prepared, I still can't let go." "I don't think she is gone." "She lives whenever we think about her." "I stay only two days for her funeral." "And let my relatives take care of the rest." "I work in daytime as if nothing happened." "But collapse at night." "Is it hemp?" "You're grown-up." "Don't cry." "She can't come back to life." "Restrain your grief and accommodate the change, right?" "It is sad exactly because she can't come back to life." "What kind of condolence is that?" "You know I am rustic." "Now it is your turn to comfort me." "Who can't come back to life this time?" "You are such a..." "I am getting married." "Married?"

"Kelly and I have been together for long." "But every time I see her, we are like criminals." "We can't even go to hotel because they don't admit unmarried couples." "If the police break in, they will charge me visiting a prostitute." "How can that be a reason to marry?" "I reckoned you won't understand." "You are unrestrained." "As a man, I have to get married and raise a family someday." "As a man!" "Sorry." "Don't misunderstand me." "We are different." "I can't meet your expectation." "But I respect you as my best friend." "You  can do things you don't want to for others." "Just can't do it for me." "Ivan, don't force me." "You know how I feel about you." "Besides that, I can even die for you." "So to stay with me is worse than death." "You are nonsense again." "Troublesome as a fucking bitch." "Why do you have to tell me that..." "At such moment?" "It is the last hurdle." "Ivan, you can do it." "Hey mate, you are still alive!" "Happy birthday!" "Oh...hi, how're you doing?" "Fine." "Are you okay?" "You sound drunk, must had a big celebration." "Yeah, big, big..." "How're you doing?" "Well, I have got some holidays left, shall I fly over?" "Yeah!" "Good." "But I have a better idea." "Yes?" "I will go to Israel, see you." "Oh great!" "I'll wait for you here then." "Take care, and don't get yourself too drunk." "Bye!" "Bye!" "My 30th birthday, that I planned to celebrate with Windson in Japan." "Hey, handsome man, we are not open yet." "Okay, now we open." "Take a seat first." "Would you like a drink?" "I'll have a bear, please." "Just a moment." "Came here before?" "No!" "Where do you come from?" "I' m from Hong Kong." "Enjoy" "Show time, are you ready?" "Ivan, could you do me a favor?" "Ivan, Windson is not home." "Take a seat, Ivan!" "Windson went to Mainland, China." "Your cough is serious, aunt." "Pneumonia, lung water, so much phlegm..." "Windson asked me to take you to a doctor." "That silly boy." "I have seen many doctors." "There is no cure to my problem." "But it is nothing, anyway." "Ivan, do you know any specialist?" "Yes." "I have made an appointment with Dr So, a famous oncologist." "That is great!" "I am having pneumonia, not lung cancer." "Don't be stubborn!" "Ivan has his network, he can help us." "The weather is so strange nowadays." "Yes, the earth is changing." "People are changing too." "There was no such thing as cancer before." "I merely ate a preserved apricot." "Then I got this endless cough." "It is not because of preserved apricot, aunt." "What else then?" "I don't smoke." "Dad doesn't smoke." "And Windson doesn't smoke." "He does!" "Really?" "I haven't seen him smoke at home." "You know him better than us." "Tell him don't smoke too much then." "But that may not matter at the end." "Look at me, smoking or not, dying the same." "It is not that easy to die, aunt." "I am not afraid of death." "Windson will take care of his dad anyway." "And with friend like you." "But I am reluctant to go." "I work hard all my life, and as soon as it is getting easier." "The end is ahead." "Anyway." "Aunt, you will recover, believe me." "Ivan, don't try too hard..." "I don't want you to spend your hard earned money." "All on the elderly." "But haven't you spent all your money on us?" "That's also true, so you should appreciate your life." "Don't imitate the girl of today's headline." "Just had a quarrel with her boyfriend." "Then she jumped from a roof." "How stupid!" "I heard this cinema is going to end its business." "Old stuff won't last." "Have you watched Cantonese opera here?" "Sure." "Many years ago, the artists were so great." "Am I hopeless?" "And you are coming to me just for fun?" "You look fine." "Sure, I can still cook." "Just a bit hard to breathe when climbing up stairs." "I cough a lot too." "Let's do a checkup!" "Madam, would you wait outside for seconds?" "I have a few words with your son." "Oh." "Thank you!" "This young man is marvelous." "To be honest, half of her lung isn't functioning." "And the other half is full of lung water." "It is a miracle that she can make it this far." "She has been healthy." "Never get sick." "We don't have much choice now." "Except a new medicine from Australia." "It is tablet." "No side effect." "Worth trying." "But so expensive that we are reluctant to mention." "I don't care about the cost." "Just use my credit card." "But don't let mom know the amount." "She is lucky to have a son like you." "Tang Mui." "You may go now." "This doctor is different, must be very expensive." "Not really." "He said you are cute and gave us 50% off." "Really?" "And you are my bonus son." "I have a bonus mom too." "Don't say money can't buy a life." "The medicine makes aunt better." "As her situation is stable, it is time to keep my promise to Josh." "It's been a long time, buddy!" "Yeah, good to see you again." "Sorry to keep you waiting." "Must be the security people, right?" "Yes!" "They held me up for 2 hours asking dummy questions." "Such as?" "Such as what is your dad's name?" "I was already reluctant to answer, and your grandfather's?" "I said I hardly even know him, I don't even know where his grave is!" "I warned you so." "Yes, fortunately, otherwise I would be even trickier and be locked up already." "well we all know they can be real nasty." "But when every life is at stake here, nobody blame them for doing their job." "Yes, I guess I will understand that in times, but, where are we going now?" "Tel Aviv is just like Hong Kong, I am bringing you to Jerusalem." "Great!" "Magnificent!" "The holy place for Christian, Islam and Jews." "Look at all those graves!" "They were for the lucky ones." "What do you mean?" "The Mount of Olives is a very special place for the Jewish people." "Why is it different to other places in Jerusalem?" "For three thousand years, the Jewish people bury dead people here." "The book of the prophesy said, people buried here will become alive first." "When the end of the time comes." "Interesting." "Yeah." "You know what this is?" "Yeah, the Waiting." "But I had only seen it on film." "There is no film like life." "Right." "I can't believe it!" "Nobody can at the first sight of it." "What attract you the most?" "Everything is still, it is like a mirror." "You know why?" "Because the water is so salty here that no fish can survive." "No life in the sea at all." "Dead Sea." "Yeah, wanna dive in?" "You bet." "So Ivan, aren't you going to tell me?" "What happened at your birthday night, when I called you?" "Oh yeah, so you noticed." "You sound like you were about to jump from a roof." "Oh my god, I did not have a webcam on the roof, did I?" "So you were really..." "Crazy fellow!" "Did you break up with him?" "Just then, 3 days after my grandma pass away." "Josh, you might have saved a life." "I shouldn't have called you then." "Why?" "You have lost the love of your life." "That is sad." "But that also means you have had love." "People who loves you and loved by you so much." "You think you have lost it, but you already own it forever." "And you even want to give up such a life, why should one bother?" "So Josh, tell me." "Which refusal is worse?" "A gay who doesn't like you, or a straight man who loves you?" "So you think he loves you?" "Think?" "Oh I think..." "I think we can talk about it on our way to Elat." "Okay." "But I don't want to go now." "Ivan." "Resistance to the new drug has happened." "Nothing could control the cancer now." "We have been discussing..." "Prepared to give up." "No way!" "Ivan, we appreciate what you have done for us." "Like this first class room, costing thousands per day..." "Uncle!" "Cousin!" "Forget it." "She is my mom too." "I won't give up." "I can't pay you back for a lifetime then." "Then pay me the next life." "Son, mark six!" "Oh yes, aunt, we still got time to buy the lottery." "Mom, tell us some numbers." "Three," "Seven," "Twelve," "Fifteen," "Twenty," "Twenty..." "Twenty-one or twenty-seven?" "Anyway." "Buy both of them." "We have been buying mark six for whole life." "And for the first time ever, we won the third prize last month, fifty thousand dollars." "Windson." "Yes." "Treat Ivan to a dinner, anyway." "Are you blood relatives to her?" "I am her son." "I am her adopted son." "Your mom is not a Catholic." "Can't be buried in the Catholic Permanent Cemetery." "So that is the meaning of "Jesus gives you eternal life"" "Yeah, many people join in for that piece of land." "If you do mind the location, you can choose somewhere else." "But they do have time limit." "And you need to stand in the queue." "Several years later, no land will be offered for coffins anymore." "Is there any double room?" "Mr. Lin, take your time." "The most important things are pattern and comfortability." "You can check that one too." "Just be careful." "This one has a nice pattern." "But this is more spacious inside, we will take this one." "All of you please turn around." "Hey, turn around." "We are doing the ceremony." "Ivan." "Aunt." "Your adopted mom said that you are very nice." "And always buy her Chinese opera tickets." "Really good shows." "She said you and Windson are best friends," "Not even a storm can separate you." "Brother, I need to borrow your car." "When?" "The 7th of July." "Such a long lead time, must be something major?" "Sort of..." "I am getting married." "Married again?" "Oh no, forget it..." "Haven't you been careful?" "I don't know." "She swears she had taken the pills." "But anyway." "You don't use condom, now you get the reward." "Now I envy you." "One more." "One more." "Closer please." "Right!" "Everybody look here." "Thank you!" "Thanks all of you." "Done!" "Congratulations!" "There is even a baby guest." "Now you are older than me." "You are a man and I am still a boy." "I have been lucky to be your brother." "A boy or a girl?" "Absolutely a boy." "Can you teach him for me?" "No way!" "But I don't mind naming him." "There is something I want to tell you for a long time." "Still something you haven't told me?" "Must be bad." "First, you shouldn't let that Windson to stick with you for so long." "He gets along with you for your money and influence." "We are both straight, I know what is in..." "And the second thing?" "Eh," "Okay, though you don't fancy woman, you should have a baby." "For what?" "For your genes." "You are so talented, shouldn't waste it." "Brother, don't think that your son is your belonging." "He has his own life." "It is another life." "Just like our father and us." "I know." "But we can somehow cheat ourselves," "As if our lives can extend beyond our death." "Surely I will die earlier than you, you can be my extension then." "Brother, do you know that..." "When you told me you were gay, I felt like the sky fell down on me." "You know you are my idol." "There are so many gay idols, you just don't know." "If the sky fell down on us, take it as a quilt." "Your sister-in-law has a premature birth." "Can you pick us up?" "Which hospital?" "No wonder when you were a baby, grandma always worried about you being swapped." "Was the environment similar?" "Much worse, a mess!" "In those days of political movement..." "I was so scared." "You were my first baby and I didn't have enough breast milk." "Luckily your grandma and aunt took you to Guangzhou." "At least the facilities are better in the city." "Where have you been?" "You are even later than us." "I have to work." "Go and see your wife." "The son is more fun." "But where does the son come from?" "Wish she live well under there." "I hope to see her, even in my dream." "Ming Wah is not my home." "But in these six years' time, it brought me hope and joy." "All vanish now, no way to get them back."

"The road only seems to be long." "It takes less time to complete than we would think." "Hey!" "What the hell are you doing here?" "Got to speak in English?" "Why are you here?" "For a holiday?"

"You know my wife very well, we have split though." "Who?" "You!" "This is not a motorway." "I haven't seen a policeman here." "So free." "Move here then!" "We came all the way from there, see?"
