You are not picking up my call,

               I waited for so long at the reception.

Linda: What regulations are you talking about? I am talking to you,

            I didn’t come here to see you

Harris’ father: I’m sorry guys. Let’s forget about the past, I blame it on the Devil.

Harris: I forgive you guys, let’s forget about the past.

Harris: Most families don’t respect the house maids but the truth is house.

I’m asking you guys to put in mind that all human beings are equal and love doesn’t ask why.

Harris’ mother: I think we have learnt something from what we have been through.

Let me say this again ,forgive me Suzzi ,I think you are very understanding and you know a lot about religion, I’m sure you have forgiven us ,please do that.
