37 Vol 1 : Ch 37 - Kids and Rei bonding (1/2)
”Kids I said no running”
”Oops, sorry!”
”Bro / Sis / Lynel faster, we're hungry already”
”You just eat a snack one hour ago” Ken retorted.
”It's nothing compare to meals”
”Silly” Ellyn commented.
Rei put the foods on the table and put aside the tray where the staff can easily keep it without disturbing them eating. Rei seat opposite to them and ask the staff.
”Can you give me 5 plates, please?
”Yes, Ms. Rei” get the plates then give to Rei. ”Here's your plates Ms Rei”
”Thanks”
Rei distributing the plates to the kids first, placing half rice each of them, dividing the pork and chopsuey then opening their bottles first followed by her foods and bottle.
”Let's dig in now and chew it very well”
”Uh-uh”
”Rei, can I join you?”
”Yes, Mrs Min you can join us”
”Thanks”
Her assistant Mr Do is sitting and eating where his friends are and Mrs Min saw Rei where she seated and ask if she can join them. Rei just agreed, introduce the kids and telling how she relate to the kids.
”Kids this is Mrs Min, your Aunt mentor during my internship and Mrs Min this is my nephews Ken and Ren while my nieces Ellyn and Lynel”
Pause a while and greet her ”Nice to meet you Mrs Min”
”Nice to meet you too kids” 'so the kids are nephews and nieces of Rei. And here we are, the others who envy Rei just speculating something else to ruin her reputations' while thinking of it, the kids suddenly stand and say thanks to her with a gesture of how they say thanks in J Country and T Country way.
”Mrs Min, thank you for taking care of Aunt Rei, as her Mentor”
Ken and Ren thanking her in T country way by bowing 45 degrees with their right hands on the chest while Ellyn and Lynel thanking her in J country by bowing 45 degrees only. Mrs Min who caught off guard and don't know why they act like this because mostly the kids are just thanking sincerely without any kind of gestures but these kids have and are already too sincere.
Rei observe Mrs Min and explain why they are like that ”Mrs Min if you don't mind, my nieces and nephews just arrive 3 days ago, so they still not adjusted here and just thanking you in J Country and S Country way.”
”Oh, so that's why. But how come they are fluent in C dialect?”
”They were born full C Citizen but grow up in different country but their parents never fail to teach them what their mother tongue dialect is.”
”Oh, that's good and Rei you must continue eating while chatting me”
”Yes, Mrs Min”
Meanwhile the moment Mrs. Min approach her, their fellow co workers are now talking about them.
”Geez, this s-l-u-t, how come she tame the most strict senior Mrs Min”
”For you to know Mrs Min was a mentor of Ms Rei during her internship”
”Me too, Mrs Min was my mentor also. I bribed her but she didn't accept it instead she punished me.”
”That's right and same here, I'm an heiress but how come I got beaten by that s-l-u-t and just a commoner”
”If that's what we think, maybe Ms Rei hold a dark secret of Mrs Min”
”What do you mean?” But then stop because they notice the kids standing and said something to Mrs Min while bowing their heads.
”What the? Are they an idiot? How come they just bow their heads like an idiot?”
