	Flower in the mirror, moon in the water
	It's short for 鏡子裡的花，水面上的月亮.
	Pretty much, it means something that you can see but never grasp.
	Like a flower reflected in a mirror, or the moon shining on the water's surface?
	Yes. You can't reach your hand through the mirror and take the flower out, it's impossible.
	You can only look, never have it.
	I see.
	So "Mirror Flower, Water Moon" is shorthand for something beautiful but unattainable.
	Pretty much.
	Da Ah-yi cheers as Noelle's mom manages to zip her bulging suitcase closed.
	Ready to go to the airport?
	準備好去機場了嗎？
	Let's go.
	{font=chunhua_chinese.ttf}我們走吧。{/font}
	Noelle gives the half-translated poem one last despairing look before flipping the magazine shut.
	Is that what I've been chasing after this whole time? A flower in the mirror?
	If only I get straight As, I'll have a normal relationship with my parents.
	If only I land a summer internship, I'll have a normal relationship with my parents.
	If only I become fluent in Chinese, I'll have a normal relationship with my parents.
	What if it was never possible from the start, no matter what I did?
	Stranger
	That evening, Noelle and her mom make landfall in California.
	Instead of driving home from the airport, they take the BART back.
	Noelle wrinkles her nose as she inhales the stench of vomit, urine, and cigarettes.
	Dad's car is parked at the airport garage. Why not just drive it home?
	We wouldn't be able to get gas.
	It's not safe for women to pump gas. It's so easy for a criminal to grab you and drive away.
	We live in one of the safest suburbs in the entire U.S....
	Is that why she always has my dad pump the gas...?
	Besides, I can't read fast enough.
	When you're driving on the freeway the signs pass by so quickly.
