chapter 5
"Yeah I'd kinda like to know too" I said curious now.
"Well, you see, my children, uhhh.. baby geese come from a little egg. Don't ask me where the egg comes from! " Ping shakes his feather at us
"Dad, that's not what we meant " me and Po said at the same time. Ping sighed
" I know it's not, I think it's time I told you two something I should've told you long time ago." Okay now I'm getting nervous that I will never admit
"Yeah?" I heard Po said as Ping being hesitant to say anything
" You two might have been kind of .... A ...a ...adopted " and there's the plot twist ladies and gentlemen did not see that coming well couldn't see to begin with Po then said
"I knew it!"
"You knew?" Me and dad said at once now
" Oh, who told you?" Ping ask confuse
" No one, c'mon dad!"
"But if you knew, then why didn't ever say anything?"
"Why you never say anything" Po ask in a reply I finally spoke up after a pause
"So eh where did we came from? Dad how we got here?"
His response was" actually you two came from this" Mr. Ping pulls out a radish basket and a cabbage basket under the kitchen bench. I'd held my basket close to my chest as dad begins his tale.
"It was just another day at the restaurant, time to make the noodles.. "a flashback occurs. A younger Mr. Ping goes into the back alley though the rear entrance to collect his vegetables. He notices that two of the crates is shaking
"I went out to the back, where my vegetables, has just been delivered. There were cabbages, turnips, radishes." Mr. Ping approaches cautiously. The crates suddenly one topples over, spilling several half-eaten radishes ... And a dirty infant panda. Then a baby lynx head pop a out with a piece of cabbage in her mouth
" Only, there were no radishes or cabbages. Just two hungry babies I notice one is blind." Mr. Ping stares in surprise. The baby panda burps then rolls on his back, smiling sweetly. Then the baby lynx climbs blindly out of the crate falling onto the panda giggling. Mr. Ping walks around the babies and looks around the alley. There's no-one around.
"There was no note, of course, you could've eaten it Po. I waited for someone to come looking for you two but no-one did." Mr. Ping picks up one of his crates and begins walking back inside. The babies begins to whimper the baby panda's crying rises to a bawl making a chain reaction making the lynx cry, bringing Mr. Ping to a stop. The children cries quietly for sometime... Until a radish and cabbage gently rolls to them. The babies brighten the panda grabs the radish pushing the cabbage towards his friend the lynx. While Mr. Ping looks nervously. The panda takes a huge bite out of the radish, and flashes a cheeky grin. The lynx was nibbling the cabbage cutely. The goose smiled slightly charmed
"I brought you two inside... " Mr. Ping lead the infant panda inside the kitchen with a trail of dumplings. While Mr. Ping holds the lynx
"Fed you both" Mr. Ping tosses the last dumpling into a small bathtub, prompting the child to climb inside, then places the blind baby inside. Mr. Ping smiled as the panda begins happily nibbling the dumpling giving half to the lynx who she ate it
" Gave you both a bath." Minutes later, Mr. Ping is gentling scrubbing the two, whose faces is the only thing visible in the mountain of soup suds, the lynx accidentally ate a soup bubble making her giggle happily
"And fed you two again, " after the bath Mr. Ping begins feeding the two different soups he fed the lynx tofu cabbage soup the panda consumes the entire spoon. When Mr. Ping takes it out again, he is dismayed to find it drenched in Silva
" And fed Po again" Mr. Ping then begins chopping vegetables rapidly, all the bits going straight into the panda's mouth. After feeding, Mr. Ping approaches the lynx with a dress
" I tried to put a dress on you Haku. Don't know how you knew" before Mr. Ping can put the dress on, the blind child begins playfully crawling around bumping into things with her new brother, then a table knocking over its contents before moving beneath a shelf Po and Haku got a spoon and a wok fall on their heads. A concerned Mr. Ping approaches as the children sits up and they begin to cry. The goose grabs the wok, which is sitting on the panda's head like a hat, and gently turns their head around. They whimper before Brighton up, giggling at Mr. Ping. Mr. Ping's heart melts completely.
"And then I made a decision that would change my life forever..." That evening, Mr. Ping cooks up two different soups tofu cabbage soup and noodle soup
"To make my soup without radishes and serve tofu cabbage soup....." And brings them up to the babies, who they are sitting in a radish and cabbage crates which they both been reconfigure into a makeshift cribs.
" And raise you two as my own kids, Xiao Po and Lee Haku my little panda and lynx." Mr. Ping lovely feeds the babies as the flashback ends.
" And from that moment on both my soup and my life have been that much sweeter " the present day Mr. Ping tears up as he strikes the edge of the two baskets.
" And little Po little Haku, that's end of the story. Look at me! No, don't look at me" I stay silent taking it all in
" That's it? That can't be it! There's gotta be more dad!" Po shouted in frustration.
" Well, there's that time you are all my bamboo furniture. It was imported too. You missy broke my favorite vase." A rabbit drops coins on the counter.
"One dumpling please. Dragon warriors size!" Mr. Ping pulls out an over-sized dumpling rolls if across the counter. The rabbit staggers under its weight.
"Oh Haku, Po your stories may not have such happy beginnings. But look how it turned out! You two got me, you two got each other, both got kung fu, Haku you got Crane- " I stop him there by saying
"Whoa whoa whoa okay we're not like that, we're just friends " I shook my paws I'm front of me shaking my hand hearing dad reply
"Oh please the whole valley knows you two have a thing for each other "
"What thing?! There is no thing!" I freak out
"Dad I have so many questions: like how is I ever fit in this tiny basket... Why didn't Haku like dresses?" Po ask
"I know why" I mutter under my breath then headed Po ask a good enough question Mr. Ping looks at Po
"And who are we?"
