Trip to New Jersey. Family Life

It was just 2 days together. Why do I start to miss them so much, like they are the only persons I could think about in US?

I do like that family, my uncle and aunt, Sherry and Portia. The father and the mother are of traditional Chinese style, the two daughters, 5 and 12, are mixtures of American and Chinese. The problem was I always didn't know whether to speak Chinese or English. Speaking Chinese makes me feel more like in a family, but they definitely wanted to give their daughters an English speaking environment.

The elder one is independent like an American, but mild and kind and polite like an educated Chinese girl. She is skinny and as tall as her mother already, but athletic and steady-minded as a result of tennis training and match experience since 6. She takes good care of her little sister and do housework a lot. She paints, writes and plays origami like a well educated girl, and is really serious and devoted when practicing tennis, even just basic skills. She is a perfect elder sister. And her voice is beautiful. She seldom speaks Chinese, but when she does, it's like the best voice I've ever heard.

The little one is super adorable and energetic, singing all the time. She never cried even in bad mood.

They have a wonderful house. It was quite roomy, bright and quiet, with forest in the backyard and a large lawn in the front.

A lovely house, 2 sisters and a happy family. I felt warm and content, willing to give up anything to protect it.

Is it because I've lived a single life alone for as long as more than 2 months that I was so invulnerable to that? Why does it get me so easily and tightly?

What's more, they are moving to Florida, and they are going to sell their house. The parents didn't choose a normal way for their daughter as most Chinese parents did. They foster her talent in tennis at all expense. That's the reason why they are moving to Florida, where winters are shorter and warmer, so that she can continue her training without interruption. In the standing of US girl tennis players, she is one of those who have played the most tournaments. Surely it was uncle Jia who took her around the country playing matches.

I'm dreaming of meeting with them again. And I will speak English next time.
