I reluctantly joined my friends in the artwork, wanting to be part of what was going on, but afraid of being caught. I knew well that we were breaking not one, but two class rules. The second rule was that no one was allowed to stay inside at noon without a written excuse from home if the weather was nice.

Trying various colors, we drew houses, trees and three-dimensional boxes. It was fun!

Then Judy had an idea. “We’re all right-handed. Let’s see who can write her name best using her left hand.”

Judy and Karen picked up their chalk and started writing. I chose a white piece from the box and wrote my name. The handwriting was a bit shaky, but no one would doubt that it said “Janet”.

“I think Judy is the winner,” said Karen. “Hers is the best.”

They met with each other at a party. She was so young and beautiful, while he was just an ordinary man. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, which was to her great surprise, however, out of politeness, she accepted his invitation.

Sitting in a nice cafe and not knowing what to talk about, they both felt very embarrassed. When the waitress served them the coffee, he asked her to bring him some salt. Astonished by his strange action, her curiosity aroused, she asked, “How come such a habit?” He hesitated for a while before replying in a word-after-word way, “When I was a little kid, we lived by the seashore and I used to indulge myself in the sea. Every time there came the ocean wave, the sea water would found its way into my mouth, which was bitter and salty. I have been away from my family for a long time and I am missing it, and coffee with salt can remind me of the taste of the seawater
