There was a pause before Hana turned around and looked at Zayn coldly. "Perhaps you are truly a good person. I believe you on the grounds that you are enthusiastically helping people like us. However, my aunt truly cannot work here. She is already fifty-seven years old and has never lived happily in this life. Please don't find her a job. I will take her away immediately."
After saying that, Hana carried her aunt's duffel bag and left without looking back.
"Hana, Hana, wait for me. This child! I will be a burden to you!" her aunt cried behind her. Both the aunt and the niece walked further and further away. After they had walked away for a few dozens of meters, Zayn and Aino could still see the way Hana looked as she walked forward with her back bent while carrying that big duffel bag. She was also dragging her aunt behind her with great difficulty.
"Uncle Zayn, they are so pitiful,” said Aino.
Zayn sighed. "I agree." It was very difficult for Hana to carry that duffel bag. The old lady was also carrying it when she came over. How difficult must that be for her?
"Uncle Zayn, let's give them a lift, alright?” asked Aino.
Zayn nodded. "Of course, no problem! Aino is the
brightest child in the world. You're my pride!”
After saying that, he then led Aino to chase after Hana and the old lady with big strides. Within three minutes, they caught up with them. He took over the duffel bag that Hana was carrying from behind her, which startled Hana. She suddenly turned her head around and shouted furiously, "What are you... What are you doing?”
"At the very least, I am Tessa's boyfriend. I'll give you a lift. It's easier compared to you carrying it like this," Zayn said.
Hana was speechless. Before she could react in time, Zayn had already put the duffel bag in the trunk, and then he pulled the car door open. "Please get in. Aino and the old lady can sit at the back. Mada.." He wanted to call her Madam Sharpe, but he felt that Hana was too young. Besides, Hana had never acknowledged that he was Tessa's boyfriend, so he might as well not address her.
