angel（关切地）: anny, where are you? tell me, where are you?
anny: mummy, i’m in hospital now. i felt pain, but i didn’t cry. dad says the one who cries is not a good girl. then you won’t come back. mummy, can you come back to see me? i’m waiting for you with no tears.
angel: anny, i’m, i’m not… oh, yes, mummy will come back to see you（dad推门入，见anny在打电话，连忙夺过）
dad: i’ve told you not to call anybody else.
（对着电话）sorry, i’m really sorry. the child has disturbed you.
angel: never mind. i’m a mother, too. i understand her. may i know the truth?
dad: eh…, her mum isn’t here. so she called and called.
angel: where’s anny’s mother? you divorced?
dad: no, no. i hope she would come back. but…
