apu
weary-looking immigrant
tough
26 years of age
worked himself to death
wishing his brother does not have the same faith
wanting a better life for this 14 yr old innocent wife
but refuse to send her to school
knows his work is illegal
knived and rioted amongst muslims before
went into business with a muslim immigrant selling gravy peanuts

he spoke about using my Singaporean citizenship to do business
he talked me into thinking I will have more money than the salary I earn now
it took me a while to convince him life ain't about money even if you're poor

apu does not think i'm talking sense, he left muttering i will learn
