Saturday, May 7, 2005 (Continued)
We parked in the drive behind all the other cars, got out and started walking toward the front door.
I commented to Julia, "This is a VERY nice looking house."
Julia answered, "After I've seen inside I'll give you my guess of what it's worth. That way you'll have an idea of how your place will compare."
Ava muttered, "Millions of dollars. I still can't get over it."
"Shh, here comes Lily."
Lily rushed up, but with Carol and Julia on my arms, there was no easy way for Lily to hug me. Lily stopped short, then said, "Welcome. You good, Mark?"
"Very good, thank you."
Ava giggled. As far as Ava was concerned, I was VERY, VERY good.
"We worry about you gone. Was trouble?"
"No, it wasn't trouble. I was researching an idea I had. It just took longer than I expected."
Ava giggled again, causing Lily to look at Ava wonderingly.
I added, "Ava knows what I was doing the last few days, and she knows your concern is unnecessary. Shall we go inside?"
Lily led the way to the living room. I was amazed by how wonderful the house was - it was easily the most beautiful house I'd been in. I'd been impressed by the Williams' house, but this was considerably better. Also very Chinese, although I'd never been in a Chinese family's house before, so my opinion probably didn't count for much. I just knew that there were lots of beautiful Chinese-looking things around the place.
Everyone else was in the living room. It was an impressively large living room. Although some people were standing in groups, there were easily enough chairs and sofas for all of us to sit. In addition to me and all my invitees (which totaled eighteen people), there was Lily, her father, an even older Chinese man [Lily's grandfather, I later learned], another Chinese couple and their son, who looked about the same ages as the Chengs [Lily's uncle and his family]. No sign of Mrs. Cheng, but I was delighted by the delicious smells she was presumably busy adding to. I headed toward Mr. Cheng.
"Hello sir. Thank you for inviting so many of us."
Lily had followed me. Her father looked to her, and she provided a quick translation into Chinese.
Mr. Cheng looked back at me and gave me a very heavily accented, "You welcome. Our honor. Please," Mr. Cheng indicated the elderly man who had risen to stand beside Mr. Cheng.
Lily provided, "This is my father's father. My grandfather. He and Grandmother are visiting."
I shook his hand while he spoke Chinese to me. Lily translated, "Grandfather and Grandmother has no English. He is very pleased to meet you."
I found it a weird feeling to talk with a guy who didn't understand what I was saying, but I told him I was pleased to meet him too.
I then introduced my sister Carol, and my two girlfriends: Julia and Ava.
Lily passed that on. (I'll stop following every sentence with a version of "Lily translated." You should have the idea by now.)
I was curious to see Mr. Cheng's reaction to my having two girlfriends, especially as his daughter wanted to be something sort of similar. Lily had said he'd be okay with it, but I was still interested. The way we were standing had Carol beside me, with Julia beside her and then Ava, so I couldn't put my arm around a "girlfriend", to reinforce that message, but I'd make sure I did so several times during the night.
He greeted the three girls without any untoward expression, just smiles.
I was then taken across the room a little, to be introduced to "Father's brother", his wife and their son. All of them spoke some English, especially Tony (the son, Lily's cousin). All the relatives lived in Hong Kong, and were visiting for a while.
After those introductions, Lily said, "I tell Grandmother and Mother you are here." She started walking toward the kitchen, judging by smells coming from that direction, so I eagerly followed. Lily stopped me, saying, "You wait."
I waited (Julia has me well trained to follow orders). It was probably wise not to let me into the kitchen, because I've been known to steal snacks sometimes.
Julia was standing next to me, so I quietly asked her, "What do you think the house is worth?" I was very impressed by it, and was extremely curious to know how my mansion would compare.
Julia laughed, adding, "Mark, I've got no idea how many bedrooms or bathrooms it's got, how modern the kitchen is, or any of its other features. I couldn't possibly guess yet."
"Oh. I just thought it looked very beautiful."
"You're not looking at the house; you're looking at the furnishings. Try to imagine every room as totally bare; completely empty of every single piece of furniture."
Which made sense, which unavoidably meant I'd been silly again. To change the subject, I said, "You mean the same way I like to imagine every girl I meet is totally bare?"
"Haha. As if! But you're getting the idea. I'll let you know when I've got an idea of a value."
We did a bit of socializing before I saw the three generations of Cheng women enter the room. My core group of three girls and I moved to greet the cooks, with a big, friendly smile on my face. It was nearly 7pm, so well after my usual dinnertime. I'd deliberately missed my mid-afternoon snack, and the smells were delicious, so there was a BIG smile on my face. I hoped there was a BIG quantity of food to put into my face.
We repeated the introductions, including me seeing how they reacted to the plural "girlfriends". They accepted it as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
I made a couple of very enthusiastic comments about how much I was looking forward to dinner, which the ladies seemed very happy to hear.
After the ladies left us, I said to my girls, "I feel a little embarrassed about not introducing the other three girls to everyone. I fear I'm slighting them. I might go spend some time with them. Is that okay with all of you?"
Of course it was, so I went to join Chloe, Alexis and Pat. I apologized to them for not introducing them as well, adding, "I didn't mean to slight any of you; it just seemed too awkward and imposing on our hosts' time to introduce so many people at once. I'll make sure I spend time with each of you this evening. Is that okay?"
They assured me it was, that I was a very nice guy to be so considerate, that they didn't mind and they understood that they had to take turns with me.
Then Julia walked up to announce, "Lily's going to take us for a tour of the house. Who wants to come?"
Every single one of the girls leaped to her feet and rushed off, leaving me alone. They'd all behaved as if they knew I wasn't going to come with them, and I knew such tours were generally female-only. That left me looking a bit silly all by myself, so I looked around, catching Mr. West's eye, so I wandered over to talk with Ava's parents.
Mr. West said, "We had an interesting talk with Alexis on the way over."
"Yes, I was sure you would. I saw her think about your little trap and decide to go, so I was sure she'd have something to say. She's not the sort of girl who hesitates to speak her mind."
"No, she's not. She enjoyed 'setting us straight, ' - her words. She was very blunt in her compliments about you."
"Umm. I'm not sure how to respond to that. Alexis and I just get along well. She's similar to Ava in some ways; a lot blunter, but equally unpretentious and honest, which I like very much..."

I answered, "So far."
"How many you want?"
I shrugged, adding, "It's very hard to find good girlfriends. I want everyone to be happy, but it's hard to find girls who can share happily."
Tony chuckled, "Yes, VERY hard, haha. Same in Hong Kong. Same everywhere." He gave me a small nod of the head then wandered chuckling back to his family.
Pat asked Julia and Ava, "Do you really believe Mark is that much your boss?"
