I feel myself shrink in my seat. [color=#9B111E]"I'm jealous that I'm not that close with you... Or anybody for that matter."[/color] I say truthfully in a very small voice, feeling immensely vulnerable and embarrassed at the same time. Glancing away from Caden and out the window instead, I chew on my bottom lip. I recognize that we're getting close to Caden's house and start to worry that I might have killed the mood that was so nicely set up from dinner.

He squints as he reads the specific article titles. "And the Derung people?" He asks as another message from Cass comes through. 

[color=F0A06B]"Actually,"[/color] I say, quickly sending a message to Cass. 

[color=F0A06B][i]I mean, running on very little sleep is usually my MO anyway lol[/i][/color] I text her, thinking of how many late nights I've spent in the ER. I turn my attention back to my dad.

[color=F0A06B]"Do you know anything about them? I don't actually remember if you told me when mom and you left China."[/color] It had started as pure curiosity, but now I'm realizing that I don't really remember my parents telling me almost [i]anything[/i] about when they still lived there. One of the few things was about the traditional funeral services they had for my grandparents, but I can't really remember anything else.
