The Call from Seattle
Aunt Oy's noodle stall on a Sunday morning, the phone just put down: Jack, what does your mother say? she says that they arrive on Saturday; and what does your father say? Dad says that he's bought a hat; tell your dad that November isn't hot; and where will the two of them sleep? at a hotel on Charoen Krung, near the soi; tell her that dinner is here every evening: reporting with the little word for that.
