A Forbidden Night with a Stranger (English)
the old man said happily.
Yna and Alas ate heartily, savoring flavors they would never find in the city. Before they knew it, they had eaten far more than they usually would. There was rich native chicken stewed in coconut milk, whole fried fish, grilled tilapia, fresh river crabs, and vegetables cooked with herbs from the mountains—every dish full of the earth’s natural goodness.
Yna let out a sudden, loud burp, and everyone burst out laughing. She felt her face grow hot with embarrassment—here she was, trying to be polite, and she had burped louder than her own father ever did.
