The Mother: Eat up you two! Toi, you want some more rice?
Toi: No it’s ok, auntie. I’m very full already. You are a very good cook!
The Mother: Then you must eat more. Oh, you have to eat that leftover steamed bun.
Toi: I can’t auntie, no stomach space already.
The Mother: You must! It’s the last remaining bun. If you don’t eat, we will be throwing it in the bin anyway.
Toi: Maybe later.
The Mother: No, you must eat it now while it is still fresh. Later, it will be old and stale and even you won’t want to eat it. Already it is left there because it doesn’t look as nice as the others. But it is still edible, ya?
Toi: I will try, auntie.
The Mother: Remember to eat, ok? Just put in more fatty pork in it if you think it’s too bland.
Toi: Orh.
The Mother: Don’t waste, don’t waste….
Toi: (whisper) Eh, is your mother really talking about the bun….or you?
Frou: Shut up.
