Wei, this is Wang Yao. I apologize for not being available at this time. Please leave a message so I may reply back to you. [beep]

Oh, Keith! What exactly do you mean by that? Has something happened?

Is Marie with you?

Yes, she is, however, she seems to have had too much to drink. I do not want her to collapse in the middle of a street, but I do not know where she lives either. Why do you ask?

[Of course China has to ask many questions.]

She's been texting me. I can walk her home, if you'd like.

I see. [Was that why she was suddenly saying that she was feeling better?]

That would definitely be of great help. We are at the opium dens.

You should probably tell her that I am coming. She may not want to see me.

Why would she not want to see you?

[However, right after he sends the text, he remembers something. He sends another text right after the first.]

Are you the one she just told me about?

Because to her, I'm a horrible, dirty person. If you don't want me there either, I suppose I will leave you both alone. I understand.

I'm sorry if I've interrupted anything, Mr. Yao.

[Oh, no... don't tell him he's gotten caught up in something. At least humor him a little. He rubs at one of his temples as he texts with one hand.]

I do not know what is going on, but there is nothing happening between Marie and I. I've only spoken to her a few times and I shared some opium with her at the Winter Gala, but that is all. I see her as only an interesting person to talk to. Even now, we are only talking over a little opium and some drinks, though Marie has enjoyed more drinks than I have. You may come and talk to her if you wish, I have no problems with that. It is none of my business knowing what happened, so I will not ask.

I hadn't assumed that. I just don't want to create an uncomfortable situation for you. She told me she's having fun with you. I don't want to ruin her mood. I can walk her home later

Oh? Forgive me then, I thought I was being dragged into some uncomfortable situation.

[His next text shows a change of mood.]

You seem like a good friend to her, Keith. I can see that you are concerned about her, so I can assure you that I will not let anything bad happen to her. Unfortunately, I do not think I can do much for the hangover she will most likely have in the morning.

[Normally he wouldn't say such things right away, but the drink he had was making his lips a little loose, then with the combination of opium, he was feeling slightly giddy.]

[He is reassured, but he knows that there are drugs involved as well. While Yao is assuring him, and is, for the most part, trustworthy... he has Marie's best interest at heart. He's a hero, after all... and he doesn't want her to wake up with a hangover on top of being angry about seeing him. Maybe he can just explain himself... or prove his care to her.]

I will be there to take her home. Please drink a lot of water so you do not have a headache in the morning, Mr. Yao.

Very well, I will see you later then. I will not leave until I see that she leaves safely with you and don't worry about me. I've only had one drink and I can say with certainty that I can hold my liquor well unlike some people I know from back home. [Specifically speaking, an Englishman with eyebrows that should be introduced to a razor.]

I would be more concerned about Marie. I should really try to persuade her not to order any more drinks and start giving her water.
