Thomas TS #15

I met with Father John for the final time today. This time, it wasn’t at his house; it was at Panda Buffet as we arranged. Ross also joined in as he was also Father John’s tutor. We both entered the buffet and got our food. While eating, I told both of them that I go there often because my child tutee Astin lives close by so and I was surprised that Ross has didn’t know about this restaurant until now. I was curious about one of the dishes on Father John’s plate and I asked what it was; he cut it to show me it was egg foo young, which I got for seconds. Ross and I asked Father John what he was going to do now that we are no longer going to be his tutors and he said he will try to practice more. To thank us for helping him, he gave us each rosary beads as a gifts. In addition, he paid for both of our meals. I followed the Asian protocol of refusing a few times before accepting (Ross was in the restroom at the time). After finishing our food, we said our goodbyes and I thanked him for the lunch before parting ways.
