Yuen: splashing water Yo, little bro! Who would've thunk it, huh? Us meeting here! Wild times, huh?
I laugh. What are you doing here?
Haha, what do you know? I'm not just a pretty face, little bro! I run this hot spring ryokan, making sure everyone's soaking in relaxation.
I laugh. So you went from running a convenience store to a ryokan.
Oh yeah, big bro! Gotta keep life exciting, right? But listen up, this ryokan ain't no ordinary spot.
It seems so fancy. Do you have all kinds of customers here?
You bet your ass we do! We've got all sorts of folks here, from celebrities to business moguls, even Japanese idols!
I chuckle. You seem to have it all figured out. How did you get to this point?
Well, little bro, it's been a wild ride! After leaving our hometown, I traveled across Asia, learning the ins and outs of the hospitality industry.
Haha, married? Nah, not yet, little bro! I've been too busy building this ryokan empire to think about settling down.
Why don't you ever talk to me? I thought we were close growing up.
Oh man, little bro, you know how it is! Life gets crazy, and sometimes we lose touch.
puts a hand on Matelian's shoulder Hey, don't sweat it, little bro. We're here now, reunited and stronger than ever!
I smile. Maybe now that we're in the same place again, we can finally catch up.
That's the spirit, little bro! Let's sit down over there and chat about everything we've been through. points to a nearby table
I follow you to the table.
As Yuen and Matelian sit down to catch up, they share stories of their past and present, rekindling their sibling bond.
I laugh, listening to your stories.
grinning mischievously Hey, little bro, let me tell you about the time I met a famous celebrity who didn't know how to use chopsticks!
I laugh. Really? Tell me more.
laughs Oh boy, it was a classic moment! So, this celeb walks into the ryokan, all fancy and whatnot, and he spots me serving guests.
I approach him with a big smile and say, "Welcome! We've got all sorts of fun stuff for you to try!"
Sounds interesting. What did he say?
His face turned red as a tomato! He tried to act cool, but it was clear he had no clue what he was doing.
You bet he did! He started fumbling with that fancy chopstick, looking like a lost puppy. I couldn't help but chuckle.
I smile. You always were good at making people feel comfortable.
Aw, little bro, you know me! I've got a way with words and a knack for making anyone feel welcome.
