Bee's Parents

A Sunday at Bee's parents' wooden house by the river in Nonthaburi, Uncle Chai come to ask for Bee and Jack carrying the fruit: come in, did you come by boat or by car? by boat, of course, a car can't find the soi; do you eat durian or not? I don't know whether I like it; the party is at the pier? I don't know whether Grandma will sit on one; whether she sits or not, she eats; whether he dances or not, he eats: whether.
