Back at Sunz’s house
Sunz’s parents ask him about his day and he said “it's the same nothing new except I met a new friend”. His parents are happy for him that he makes new friends. But Sunz feels guilty for lying to his parents because with him lying in the family always make things worse. He then starts getting serious and telling his parents everything.
Sunz: Mom, Dad I am sorry for lying to both of you but the truth is today I have a fight at school and it leads me to discover something about myself. Something I desire to know more about!
Sunz looks up and sees that his parents are giving him a stern look. With each word coming out he can feel tears building up inside.
Sunz: I never know what I want to do in my life, so I always follow what you tell me and when I do something wrong you’d punish me, but for the first time I finally know what I want and all I need is your support.
The atmosphere becomes silent, then Sunz’s dad stands up and walks out of the room, at the same time tear start flowing down his cheeks. For Sunz he tries his best but the only thing he can do now is cry in silence while keeping his head down. Until he heard his father comes back, put something on the table, and start patting his back. After that moment Sunz looks up and sees his parents look relieved, giving him a gentle smile that could turn into laughter.
Sunz’s dad sigh: Every time you start crying you always turn into such a mess so wipe your tear and have some water then we can have some serious talk.
After Sunz wipes his tear and drinks some water.
Sunz’s father: You know why Mom and Dad have to be so strict with you?
Sunz: Because you want me to have a good life.
Sunz’s father: That’s right, that is why I always drive and pick you up at school because we care about your safety. We always say yes to what you want have we ever said no?

Sunz’s mother: Well we only say yes to food because that is the only thing you ask for, and we only say no when videogames involve because it might interfere with your study, luckily you’re not interested in toy but whenever we say yes to what you want you always start to feel like you’re wasting money and think that you don’t need it so I always need to reassure you that it’s ok.
Sunz feels embarrassed and starts scratching his head.
Sunz’s dad: Why we always punish you when you do something bad because we don’t want you to play with bad friends and we want you to have a good study environment. And we stop using physical punishment when you start high school because we care about your mental health.
Sunz chortle: Well I’d rather get hit in the butt than have my computer taken away.
Sunz and his parents burst into laughter.
Sunz’s mom: Now look at how much you have matured which makes us feel like we raised you correctly.
Sunz: Well scare is also an element that makes me don’t want to lie to both of you because I know I’ll get a harsher punishment.
Sunz’s father: About your career path we had chosen for you to study a job just like your mother because it is the safest job with a good salary, not too hard, and the most important reason is we don’t want to see you living on the street.
Sunz: I know and the thing I want to do for now probably not going to give me any income so I’ll still keep going with our old plan as a backup while working on my new hobby.
Sunz’s mom: You’re lucky that you weren’t born in China like us because you wouldn’t able to handle the pressure and expectation of the education system.
Sunz’s dad: well it's pretty late and you have school tomorrow so go to sleep and if you want to know more about your parent's past then just ask.
Sunz yawn: Ok goodnight mom, dad.
After Sunz’s already gone to sleep his parents went to their bed and talk about the time they heard about Sunz’s ability.
Sunz’s dad: Honey you remember the time when we find out that Sunz had an ability?
Sunz’s mom: Yeah it nearly ruin our plan to raise him but as he grew I think he doesn’t care about it anymore until today. Did you see how the sword looks these days it looks like it got abused?
Sunz’s dad: Yeah he probably use it in a fight today. If that is what he wanted to talk about then maybe it's time to give him those books.
Sunz’s mom yawns: Yeeeah, I’m so sleepy.
Sunz’s dad: Ok then goodnight!
Sunz’s mom: Night!
Then the Wu family drifts off to dreamland.
