W: By the way, do you know if there’s a restaurant nearby?
M: Yes. Look at the red building over there. It’s a good Chinese restaurant.
W: Mmm, I’ll treat you to a meal in exchange.
M: Really? I can’t believe my ears.
Part C: Story Retelling
The clock had clicked to sleep at least an hour ago. However, the couple’s thoughts had not. The air was filled with tension and the room was wet through in dark. In the early evening, within the house the man had just had a quarrel with his wife, seriously insulting each other. He couldn’t even remember what they were arguing about in the first place. Money, envy, maybe even the boring life had led to the quarrel. And they laid in the bed silently, knowing but not admitting the other’s not falling asleep.
Guilt was sitting between them, waiting for them to recognize, while pride was standing behind them, preventing them from saying sorry. The man was angry with them both and was fighting with them, but every time he thought he had won and he could open his mouth, sound couldn’t quite make its way out.
Soon the clock beside the bed clicked twelve-thirty, but his mouth somehow couldn’t say out “I’m sorry.” He continued to keep silent painfully when the seconds and minutes went by. No words fell from their lips, and silence spread from between them, across the bed and to the floor, to the corners of their room and then up the walls.
