The Interpreter
Arrivals at Suvarnabhumi, Jack's parents through the door and Tee's car outside: Mom sends her thanks for coming to get us; we're family, five bags; Dad asks me to ask whether they all fit; even six, put them in; tell your mom the baby's asleep; Mom asks me to ask how far it is; forty minutes if the rain holds off; Dad asks me to buy mangoes too; Aunt Oy has bought the whole stall: the verb that passes a word on through someone.
