William

Babe…?

Yes my love?

What if William speaks Mandarin?

Ur joking 🤣

I’m not! What if William taught himself conversational Mandarin. Even to have general conversations. He can’t read a newspaper but he can speak a little, and he understands more than he speaks.

Lolololol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

IS THIS WHAT U’VE BEEN DOING WITH UR SPARE TIME WHEN WE’RE NOT TOGETHER?!?!?!?

Yes… I’ve taught myself quite a lot over the years… it started with some music, then it turned into TV shows and movies… then I downloaded a language app and started practising more seriously…

Hahahahahahahaha… 🤭💕💕💕

R u impressed? 👀

Of course!!! 🥰🥰🥰

What about at ur new workplace?

Lol…

I guess they’re gonna think ur a normal Asian guy that speaks Mandarin?! What kind of accent do u have?!?!?!

Whatever the apps are teaching?

Like a Beijing accent? They’re gonna think William is from CHINA?!?! 🤣

Does that bother u?!?!

No… it doesn’t bother me… but when people ask, what will William say?

I will say “I taught myself Chinese and my biological parents are Korean but I don’t speak Korean, I was adopted by Aussie parents.

Lolololol 🤣 so we’re sticking with that back story for William?

Yes. I prefer NOT to converse in Korean when I meet ur Taiwanese community… and their circle of people…

Yeah. That makes sense. Staying incognito…

It’s not believable that u were never curious enough to learn Korean tho…

Okay fine. William can understand Korean if u speak it to him but he’ll reply back in English. 

That makes way more sense…

But he put in more effort to learn Mandarin than Korean. He’s happier to be spoken to in Mandarin so he gets to practice the language.

“Why?!”

For business…

Okay… mining engineer?! Is it really necessary?!

It comes in handy…

Okay… 😏💕

Anything else?

Is it okay if William has tattoos?

Nobody gives a fuck. Yes William is allowed to have tattoos.

Is it okay if William rides a motorcycle?

Lol… and he’s gonna drop me off and pick me up on a motorcycle?!

Some days… 😏 depends on his mood… if it’s raining 🌧 of course he’ll simply drive...

I feel like in my head that sounds like a good idea. The motorcycle. But in reality I might be a bit scared at first…

Okay we’ll ease into the motorcycle 🏍

Yes please…

What else?

William is really pale…

Lol… I know!!!

Will anybody care?

I doubt it…

William needs to wear sunglasses indoors.

That’s fine…

William doesn’t even like taking off his hat indoors…

That’s okay.

Really?

Yes! Who gives a fuck?! William can be himself around these Taiwanese people, it’s really not a big deal!

William doesn’t like taking his shoes off.

Now u’ve offended the Taiwanese Aunties and Uncles. Shoes off INDOORS PLEASE!!!

Aww… but then William feels more short…

Too bad. Unless he wants to bring his own platform slippers…

Ooh? Do u think he can do that?

I think… he’s gonna look a bit…. odd?!

It’s okay he’s used to being odd…

Maybe like half an inch, not platform slippers?

Lol… 😅

Some Aunties have those kinds of slippers…

Hahahahaha… 🤣 William will wear the Aunty slippers…

🤭💕

What if they ask, “we need someone to sing a song! Who wants to sing a song?!?! Karaoke!!!” 🎤🎵

William can’t sing, babe… he doesn’t sing. Ever.

Lol… 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’m serious, he’s really monotone and he doesn’t sing at all.

Okay…

He barely even talks! He’s very introverted and sticks to u like a shy boy…

Hahahahaha… 😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️
