Plum
A plum, Ba says tenderly as he studies Sam’s face. Though the
bruise1 on Sam’s cheek,
swelling2 from the cut that just missed Sam’s eye, bears little resemblance to the fruit Sam loves.
Lucy, sickened, turns away. Ba grabs her chin. Forces her to look.
“Didn’t I say?” Ba asks. “Stick by your family. I didn’t raise you this way. Not as a coward. Not as a girl who—”
Ma puts herself between them. Her
belly3, against Ba’s stomach, saying: The baby. Today Ba won’t be silenced.
“I told you,” he says, glaring now at Ma. “School’s no place for Sam.”
“Bu hui happen twice,” Ma says. “Sam will be a good girl now, won’t you? I’ll speak to the teacher. There’s value to be had from
schooling4. Kan kan Lucy. How well she’s doing.”
Ba pays Lucy no mind. He’s looking at Ma. A deadly
hush6 falls once more in the room. It seems to
seep7 from a place older and deeper than Lucy and Sam. From out of that place, Ba says in a
peculiar8, cold voice, “Didn’t you learn your lesson?” As if Ma isn’t Ma but a little girl like Lucy. “I figured the two hundred would rememory you against thinking you know best.”
The words mean nothing to Lucy, or to Sam, who returns her confused gaze. Two hundred is a nonsense number. Yet Ma clutches the table. For all her
regained9 weight, she looks sick once more.
“Wo ji de,” Ma says, pressing her hands to her face. Hard, as if she means to push through to bone. “Dang ran.”
Though Ba’s won this argument, he looks even worse than Ma. The juice has left him. His bad leg wobbles. Sam rushes to him, and Lucy to Ma, and once more the house is split.
