Mystery

Mystery

I never figured it out: how come the image on the ice-cream wrapping never corresponded to what was actually inside? But the popsicle I was savoring was not the big mystery here. I was, obviously. I had gotten used to the stares after several weeks in the middle kingdom, but this was beyond anything I had experienced so far. The man had climbed on top of my table, squatted, and leaned towards me; his face was inches away from mine. He was staring straight into my eyes. Could he actually see the White Devil hiding behind this harmless human-like appearance?

    Well this time, not much happened. He actually stayed like that not moving, not saying a word and just staring, until I finished my ice-cream. I didn’t have anywhere else to go, my table was surrounded by people staring, so I tried to ignore him (and them), like if he wasn’t there…it was…hmmm…awkward.
