acupunctured: 2

The very kind middle age chinese woman in the HP Dong acupuncture shop has tied me to her business. She tells me I need long time treatment for my "neck problems". I didn't realise there were any problems, but I guess there's nothing for me to do than to be coming back every week.
Even though we can not communicate in the same language I think we're starting to like each other. She gives me chinese tea and tells me it will make me beautiful if I drink enough. Which would be more than five cups a day, so I think it will be quite a while until the beauty occurs.

In the waiting room her husband passes his time by playing mayhong with his friends. I never see any other customers then myself, but still they seem to be wealthy and happy.
