I really can't eat anything now, thank you

I've been watching you since this morning

You had 5 coffees, didn't eat a single thing

You know this is very bad for your health?

If your parents see you like this

They will be extremely heartbroken

Why do you do this to yourself?

A perfectly nice home you abandoned

Rather sit around at a restaurant the whole day

Granny, why don't you take it home,

and please take a hike

You snubbing me

What? You want to hit me?

What have I done wrong?

I saw you looking all confused over here

And brought you something to eat

How ungrateful of you

Granny, I'm actually a convicted murderer

You're threatening me?

Pretending to be murderer

Your parents will be devastated

if they heard this

You take it back

Sorry, excuse me

Sit down, I'm not finished

It's still warm, eat some, or it'll be cold

C'mon

Have some

There's no rush, don't choke yourself

Just like my son

Waiting for someone?

If not, you won't be only drinking coffee

And looking at the door the whole day

Waiting for your girlfriend?

You're also waiting for someone?

I'm waiting for my son

For almost 11 years

When you came in this morning

I almost mistaken you as my son

11 years? Where is he?

If I knew, I'd go find him

I used to be a school headmaster

But I couldn't even handle my own son

He was always drunk and making trouble

I rarely saw him at home

But he called me up one day

And wanted to celebrate my birthday with me

He told me to meet here at this restaurant

So I waited here until it closed,

and he never came

Never went home either

As a parent, what could I do?

He asked me to wait, so I'm waiting

Driver, just wait here for a minute

Keep the meter running, I'd be back soon

"Not everyone could understand our choices"

"But I believe in your choosing"

"That is for the better"

Congratulations

Do you remember me?

Years ago,

my boyfriend and I saved up

for a long time to eat here

But we only had enough for one dish

And you treated us to some deserts too

You guys are getting married?

No

Can you help me return this to the man inside?

Okay

Your son must have his reasons,

he just didn't know how to tell you

Maybe he didn't want to worry you

You think he really

doesn't want to come home?

I also slept in the park last night

What can't you tell your own family?

Leaving without even saying one word

How'd it make us parents feel?

Try stepping in our shoes

and understand our concerns?

So, you'd tell your son everything?

Good or bad, even if it'd hurt him

You'd tell him, right?

If you're so sympathetic

Why don't you step into your son's shoe

And figure out why

he left without saying anything

Don't hit me again
