Two Men Meet

On a farm outside the urban area of Australia.

In the pleasant weather, with a cool breeze stirring the wheat seedlings, a stern-looking Black man with braided hair coiled atop his head lay in a recliner by the farm. A cup of freshly boiled milk sat on the small wooden table beside him, while he held a newspaper in his hands, leisurely enjoying his afternoon tea.

"Dad! Dad!"

A little girl, barely a meter tall with a ponytail, ran out from the farmhouse behind him. She kept shouting beside the man while relentlessly tickling his waist with her tiny hands.

At the same time, a beautiful white woman leaned against the doorway, smiling as she watched the father and daughter.

"Dad, can you drive Mom and me to Lake Langmar to fish? It's the weekend, and lots of my classmates are out having fun." The little girl had only started attending school in the nearby town this year and had a very cheerful personality.

"Alright. Get everything ready with your mother. Dad will wait here for you."

"Yay!"

The little girl happily returned to the house. After she and her mother prepared the fishing gear and other necessities, the Black man drove his family in an old farm truck toward Lake Langmar, roughly five kilometers away.

However, halfway there, a Hummer appeared from nowhere and began driving alongside the man's farm truck.

The appearance of the Hummer changed the Black man's expression. More precisely, it was the appearance of the Hummer's driver that shocked him.

"Dad, what's wrong?" The little girl was very good at reading people's expressions.

"Nothing. In a little while, go fishing by the lake with your mother first. One of Dad's old friends has come to see me. I'll come find you within half an hour
