Chapter 19

• Like a child who finally gets her chance to be out in the real world. Ibixa couldn't help but be amused at everything in the city that she could see through the window of the SUV. A week after they arrived in California from the Philippines. Ender finally fulfills his promise to take Ibixa to the bustling city of New York for a tour of her lifetime.
• The innocent child in Ibixa took over as she constantly hits Ender's arms whenever she sees something that amazes her; from the simplest thing such as a huge crowd crossing the streets and walking as fast as they could as if they don't want to waste any seconds of their life to the gigantic skyscraper that's making Ibixa stretch her neck to its limit just so she can stare at it more.
• While she's too engrossed with everything and fangirling over it. Ender, on the other hand, gives no fuck about those views that Ibixa called breathtaking. He was just fifteen when he lost count of the times he'd been to New York. This place gives him no butterfly anymore. For Ender, this place is a reminder of why he should strive to become richer than he already is.
