No

Chinese flu medicine?

No

You're so cruel

I'm going to pass some of

this sore throat on to you

Remember me?

Moore...

Demi Moore!

You're so nasty!

What? I'm Bruce Wills!

A minute ago there was not one customer

Look what's happening now

That's groupie behavior

Have you known him for long?

Not much longer than you.

Tell me about him. No, better not.

I don't want it to go back to him...

to make him think I want him.

Which means you really want him

In any case,

the guys I want are all the same

Better stay out of harm's way

When do you figure...

he'll get himself a real job?

Would you rather see him carrying

a briefcase, hanging his head...

and being ordered around?

I knew this guy from Form 3

He's in my class and was a lot like Yau.

He acted tough skipped classes

didn't do his homework.

But every time after class...

the girls would line

to lend him their homework.

The next year the guy just quit.

I didn't know if he went to

another school or what.

The girls turned funereal.

Even the teacher got a bit depressed

losing a favorite punching bag.

Do you envy him?

Go get some change.

The great novelist-to-be...

will be needing it

You know what?

You're beginning to sound like him.

No, I can't

Of course you don't know me

After Cindy ran into you again...

at the cafe that morning

Hey buddy, it's all over between us

I really love Cindy

I never loved anyone like I love her

And I thought she also loved me

But after that morning

she went home

and cried for two days and nights

I think she never loved me

I was just an asylum...

where she could lick her wounds

Why did you treat her so?

What's so good about you?

You got ban aid? You got panadol?

We're done playing and sleeping together.

It's time to make a U-turn

Can't make a U-turn

without a roundabout.

May be you've never had

the chance to be dumped.

But there's a first time to everything

Yau Muk-Yan, we're finished!

Good-bye

Are you looking for him?

He's not been back for a few days

Come on. That's not him.

A few days ago

I did the most daring thing

I ever did in my life...

It's always like this

One minute I tell myself to stay

clear of that sort

the next I throw myself into one

The more I want to play smart

the harder I fall

It's been so many years

Yet I still haven't learned

Except for one thing.

Don't give him the chance to dump you

take the initiative yourself.

Is there a difference?

Wonder how many betting centers

there are in Hong Kong?

Let's head back

Are you not looking for him anymore?

I never said I was looking for him

I should never have moved in here

The first time I laid eyes on him...

I knew it. Damn!

Ivy Ho

Ivy Ho Sai-Hong (Chinese: 岸西) is a Hong Kong screenwriter and film director. Ho's work has received high critical acclaim in Hong Kong. Perry Lam of Muse magazine wrote, 'As a writer, Ho excels as a miniaturist. Whether they are the mainlanders trying to survive and prosper in Hong Kong in 甜蜜蜜 (Comrades: Almost a Love Story) or the middle-aged school teacher trying to do the right thing in 男人四十 (July Rhapsody), the characters she creates are keenly observed, psychologically acute portraits. Her tone is intimate and confessional. The many piquant details her stories contain give her characters and the movies in which they appear a solid foothold in reality.' more…
