Biology Homework
“….hmm…m…my name is Wang Jing, and I am
actually Chinese…. How about you”
“I’m from Japan…I look like Japanese don’t
I?”
“A little maybe…But I am sure that you are
pretty….”
“Really? Thanks a lot. I think you are a
very kind person”
Burp….and another Burp from Wang Jing came
out….
“Wang…that’s really rude…burping in front
of a lady is not a right habit to have!”
“Oh…sorry… this is just m….”
“No thank you! Bye! I don’t want to have a
boyfriend that burps in front of me!”
It was my burp again that blocked all the
relationship with other girls. I hate about myself and I just wanted to get rid
of this burp that impedes my life’s way. Some guys in my college make fun of my
habit and call me “dirty Asian.” This burp was never helpful in my life except
after the meal because burp facilitates my digestion. I went back to my house
riding a train to Virginia. I came all the way to meet a girl that I could only
see for less than five minutes thanks to my burp.
My mom was standing beside the tree in
front of my house, waiting for good news from
my mouth. After seeing my face,
she suddenly got depressed.
“It was the burp again that I hat about
myself! Mom, why did you have a baby like me!”
“Because you are my only son honey…” mom
said.
“I don’t need anything. I just hate myself
and I hate you too!”
“Wang…please…”
Relationship between Wang and his mom,
Xiong, was really good except after the meeting that Wang had. Wang was the
only son that Xiong had and her husband passed away due to the accident that he
had in the construction site. The world was falling down when Xiong heard his
son saying “I hate you.” However, whenever she heard something bad from his
son, she considered it as all her fault because she thought Wang was
unfortunate to be born in a poor family.
A day ended with the sound of Xiong crying
on her bed.
“Mom! Do you know where my biology note is?
If I don’t bring it, I will get points deducted!”
“How can I know Wang. Find thoroughly.”
“Oh! I found it mom.”
“OK son, have a good day!”
Since Wang’s house was far away from his
school and no car to ride, Wang had to leave his house earlier than other
students. When he arrives at the school, he usually went over the information that
he learned yesterday and prepare for the question that he wanted to ask to his
teacher. His major was biology and he wanted to look good at his biology
professor, Mr.Garry.
“Mr. Garry!”
“Yes, Wang”
“Can you please explain the concept cell
membrane?”
“If you think easily Wang, it is like your
skin that protects your body, and this protection is done by cell membrane.
Plus, cell membrane allows crucial substances to flow through the cell.”
“Oh…I see.. thank you Mr. Garry!”
The class always started with the question that
Wang asked to his teachers. In his class, there was a named Cherry, who was
also majoring in biology. The reason why Wang was majoring biology was partly
because of the girl he liked. But, he couldn’t have a conversation with her
because he was afraid to burp in front of her. He thought that girls never burp
even they drink soda or coke and they have different body structure that doesn’t
allow females to burp. And he has never seen his mother burp in front of him.
Talking to Cherry freely without any worry was Wang’s only wish other than
having a perfect GPA in his school.
One day, he determined to have a little
talk with her with an excuse of asking homework. He was quiet but formed
bravery through his mid.
“Ch…Cherry…?”
“Yes? How are you Wang?
“I’m fine…Actually…I just want to ask a
little question.”
“What is it Wang? Feel free to ask!”
In Wang’s mind, “Wow…this girl is not only
pretty but also kind and generous. I think I love this girl.”
“What was the biology homework that Mr.
Garry told us to do?”
“Oh…it’s quite a lot…I will tax message you
the question numbers that we have to solve what’s your number?”
“O…oh…it’s 604…5201”
“I saved it in my phone. Wait for my
message!”
“Wow, thanks a lot Cherry. Have a great
day!”
Wang was just too happy to tax message a
girl he liked the most, and he didn’t burp while taking to her. It was just a wonderful
day for him that cannot come again in his life. When he came back to his house,
he only waited for his cell phone to ring.
Ding Ding Dong… his cell phone rang, and
Wang shouted.
“Yes! Thanks God…”
He tax messaged her back with a great
thanks and telling her that if she needs help in studying biology, he can help
her.
Ding Ding Dong… his cellphone rang again,
and she said if it is okay to have a time to ask some hard concepts tomorrow.
Obviousl, Wang said yes. He prepared everything that he knew in order to answer
all the questions that Cherry will ask.
Tomorrow came and he was excited to meet
Cherry. Wang thought about asking a date with her when the situation goes well.
The class ended and Cherry wanted a tutor for about an hour. She asked almost
everything and Wang could answer all the questions as he expected. One hour
went like a thunder, and it was time for them to leave.
“Thanks a lot Wang! It was really helpful.
You are a great guy”
“You are welcome Cherry. Can I ask you
something?”
“Yes…What is it?”
“Will you hang out with me? Please…”
“I am sorry Wang…I already have a boyfriend
in other school”
“Oh…I am sorry… good bye Cherry…”
It was obvious for a pretty and benevolent
girl to have a boyfriend, but it was too shocking for Wang to admit. He stood
still even after dismissing Cherry and a burp came out…
