Inxalenye yam ivakalelwa kukuba into endiyithandayo ngayo ngumntu wonke olapha yibhanki, utshilo uNks Jong-Fast, osebenza kwinoveli, INcwadana yokuSebenza kweNtlalo . Ndivakalelwa kukuba akukho mfuneko yokuba ndikhuphisane-into endiyenzayo yahluke kakhulu, ayithelekiseki.

UNks Jong-Fast ukhulele kwi-One Gracie Square, kunye nomama wakhe kunye nesoka lakhe eligama linguChip. Andazi ukuba ibhodi yokubambisana yayicinga ntoni. … Wayeyi-WASP evela kuDarien owathi waba luhlobo lwenyani lwasendle olungamakhoboka eziyobisi.

Ngokuphandle, kufuneka babekho. Kubalulekile kwindalo; injengeplankton.
Ngaba umfazi onokuthi azibize kunye nosapho lwakhe olubi ... angonwabi kwaye angahlelanga, angonwaba kwi- $ 5 yezigidi ze-East 86th Street co-op? Iyasisebenzela kuba iyothusa kwaye iyaphikisana, utshilo.
