Chapter 35

Unexpectedly, I ran into my father at the entrance of the restaurant. He was chatting with some friends and looked like he had just finished dinner. “Dad!” I called out. “Zee, why are you here?” My father was surprised to see me. His friends also glanced at me. One of his friends recognized me and immediately said, “Peter, is your daughter the beautiful cellist who played at the University of Avonopolis today? She’s very popular on the internet now!” My father probably saw the video as well. He looked proud and tried to play it down. “Oh, it’s nothing. Zena studied the cello in college, but she stopped playing for several years!” “Your daughter is still so skilled, even after she stopped playing for several years. How amazing!” “She’s beautiful too!” I felt proud, yet a little shy, listening to these compliments. At this time, Krystal called me again, so I quickly said goodbye to my father. “My friend is waiting for me inside. See you later!” “Go on then. I’m going home now.”
