[On a plane]
JERRY: Miss, can I have a glass of water, please?
FION: Ok, please wait for a while.
(After 1 minute)
FION: Mister, your….( the glass knocks against Jerry’s hand and the water was spilled onto Jerry) I’m sorry, sir… Let me wipe it for you.
JERRY: It’s ok. Your finger is bleeding. Here’s a tissue, you can use it to wipe your finger.
FION: Thanks, mister. I’ll get you another glass of water.
JERRY: Ok. May I know your name?
FION: Me? I’m Fion.
JERRY: Oh… I’m Jerry.

JERRY: ( thoughts) { I didn’t expect this to happen to me, I thought this only appears in dramas. How romantic is it for us to meet on a plane. Although I already have a girlfriend, Angel, but I have been studying in Japan for so many years. I wonder if we have the affinity to stay together. Heaven had let me met such a pretty air-stewardess, I shouldn’t waste the chance to know her. Actually, I had knocked against the glass intentionally just now, if not, how would I be able to know her……

[Angel’s house]
JOE: Angel, Jerry is coming back to Hong Kong soon. How would you handle our relationship now?
ANGEL: I thought we have made an agreement earlier. Our relationship will end upon Jerry’s return. You two are childhood playmates and great pals. What do you think he will do if he knows that we are together?
JOE: I don’t plan to tell him… It’s just that… How can you be so cruel to me? Have you ever loved me?
ANGEL: OMG, what century is it now? I have told you earlier, I do like you, but it’s only when Jerry was studying in Japan. He is coming back two days later, and that implies, we have 2 more days together. I have to tell you that I only love Jerry.
JOE: Can I break my word only?
ANGEL: Fine, I’ll save my 48 hours.
JOE: (having no alternative) Ok, whatever you say.
ANGEL: That’s the right attitude. Life is short, and we should enjoy while we can.

(at an egg-tart shop in the airport)
FION: Boss, can I have half a dozen egg-tarts, please?
BOSS: Ok. Oh, you are an air-stewardess… In half a year’s time the airport will be shifted to Dai Yu San, and it would be less convenient…
FION: And no more egg-tarts. Let me take a look at your bread… (scanning the bread)
BOSS: Miss, your egg-tarts.
FION: Here’s the money. (passes money to boss, but he shakes his head) Why aren’t you collecting the money?
JERRY: (walking up from behind) Let it be my treat, to thank you for taking care of me on the plane.
FION: (smiles) It’s just my responsibility, take the money back. (passes it to him but he refuses)
JERRY: If you really don’t want me to pay for you, then allow me to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude.
FION: Fine, thanks for your egg-tarts.
JERRY: Does that mean you are rejecting my treat?
FION: (rolls her eyes) What do you think? (smiles) Bye!
JERRY: Bye! We will meet again if fate decrees us to.
FION: Ok, but don’t you follow me. (smiles again, Jerry was mesmerized)

(Jerry waiting for taxi)(calls Angel)
JERRY: Hello, I’m coming back in 2 day’s time. Did you miss me?
ANGEL: Of course I did! I can’t wait till the day after tomorrow.
JERRY: Silly girl! I’ll call you when I’m back. Miss you!
ANGEL: (unwillingly) Bye!
JERRY: Wow, what a long queue!
MAN: (behind Jerry) Mister! Is this your first time in HK? It has always been like this. Wait a while only so impatient! (slang)
JERRY: (Jerry hears someone laughing) What are you laugh…… (he sees Fion) Hey there is really affinity between us.
FION: Or do enemies of ten always cross each other’s path?
JERRY: If we can always meet I won’t mind having you as a one.
FION: (smiles) Crazy!
JERRY: If I didn’t remember wrongly, your name is Fion…
FION: (rolls her eyes) I have expected you to remember it.
JERRY: You have so much confidence in yourself?
FION: What do you think?
JERRY: Then do you remember mine?
FION: Are you a bit over-confident?
JERRY: I am not one who would give up half-way.
FION: Do as you deem fit. I can’t help it if you insists to challenge the difficult tasks.
JERRY: Let’s see how. It’s my forte to split the ice mountain into two.
FION: (give an unbelievable look) I’m not as loquacious as you.
MAN: Mister, the taxi is here. If you don’t want it let me go first.
JERRY: You can take it first if you wish to. Can’t you see I’m talking to the girl… (turns but do not see Fion) Fion… where is she?
FION: (in a taxi) Sorry, I am going first. You won’t mind, right?
JERRY: Ya, bye…
MAN: Are you still taking the taxi, mister? If not let me have it first.
JERRY: In your dreams…
