Coffee Cat Mama (Mao Si Ma Ma / 貓屎媽媽)

So Sick, you really won't go to see Raisin Bread in hospital?

Don't you go there.

He once said the hospital is full of germs.

We don't want those passed onto the Landlord, OK?

What?

He really cares for his son so much?

I saw him scold and hit his son at the theatre.

Do you know Landlord has asthma?

Raisin won't take him to hilarious films or tearjerkers,

for they may induce an asthma attack.

He only takes him to films not very funny or touching, just in case.

Yet you took him to the cinema and even got him popcorn and a soft drink.

Want to kill him or bring trouble?

So Sick! what?

What about Landlord's mommy?

You guys have never mentioned her.

Back then Raisin and Yam were still in secondary school.

They would come to me for summer jobs. That's how we became friends.

Raisin wasn't study material. He quit school and followed me for work.

Like other youngsters, he was fun loving. Clubbing, fooling around, drinking and all.

He picked up a girl in a bar.

She's as reckless as he was. Put the two together and it meant a life.

They killed someone?

Had a bun in the oven.

What is a bun in the oven?

She got pregnant.

And then?

She's mad. She went to the hospital for an abortion.

Why didn't you ask me first?

I don't know if it's yours or my ex's.

Whoever, I'll take care of you and the baby

That BoBo just got dumped by her boyfriend.

She's hurt hard and would be grateful to any man that shows her some concern.

Raisin grew up like an orphan despite having parents.

They were two lonely hearts sharing some warmth.

The relationship didn't last long.

So Raisin soon regretted his decision?

That's what I thought, but what a surprise!

For the baby, he kicked all his bad habits.

He even picked up several jobs.

Is Landlord really his son?

Is Landlord really his son?

Yes, DNA test confirmed.

But it didn't help.

Why?

BoBo said she would never marry Raisin.

She said she couldn't forget her ex.

She had to find him.

And she walked her talk.

So Sick...

Yes?

Hi!

What is it?

Landlord is hungry. Can you go now?

Yes !

Wait! You're really not going to the hospital to see Raisin and Pebble?

Guys don't die from a loose bowel.

Let's go. Hey!

Fan Fattmafier all, they got sick on the job.

I mean to go see them. Will you join me?

OK.

Oh, you are here.

Sorry.

Brother Fart, we got ambushed by Cripple Cds men. What shall we do?

Leave it to me.

I am wanted. I have to go.

Bye! Bye!

What are you doing here? To tease me?

I am here to tell you,

you don't have to report to work tomorrow.

Your cakes made people sick. You're passing the buck to me?

I mean you have a day off tomorrow.

Have some rest.

That's good news.

So I can take Landlord to his karate class?

He hasn't called me?

He has never had to sleep alone. He must have been sleepless.

It's late. Maybe he's already asleep.

You'll wake him up if you call.

Maybe he misses me so much that he can't sleep.

If so, he should have called.

Here he is...

But no use explaining to you Post-90s.

You don't know what a father and son bond means.

Hello, Landlord, why are you still up?

I'm worried about you.

Oh, worried about Dad?

That you can't go to sleep alone in the hospital.

Silly, I have company here.

Look... what a crowd.

They are just asleep behind the curtains.

Pa, they are in hospital because they are sick.

How can they keep you company? Silly.

Cheeky now?

Just go to sleep.

No, I want to come to the hospital to keep you company.

I don't need your company. I'll be discharged tomorrow.

Let me pick you up.

Hi, Landlord, hello?

You don't have to worry.

I am not a patient, I can take care of your Papa for you.

Really? Yes!

We are friends, right?

Landlord, you have nothing to worry about, now go to sleep.

But I can't sleep without you.

Silly boy. Now do as I do.

Lie down holding your phone.

Now it's like we're lying together.

Oh no, battery dead.

Use mine.

Thank you indeed.

Sorry, Landlord, my battery died.

Well, sleepy now?

Pa, tug yourself in. Don't catch a cold.

You take good care of yourself first.

Have you had a shower?

Don't skip brushing your teeth.

Have you said goodnight to Godpa?

Your cafe loan application can be approved, but the interest rate is 10%.

So high?

You've had an incident of food poisoning.

We have to safeguard our interests.

What if I mortgage the flat I am living in? What are the rates like?

No, you can't.

Mommy?

Richard and I gave you sisters the flat not for this purpose.

His spirit in heaven is watching over us.

I happened to be here for business,

or you would have lost the flat because of this woman.

10% then, I'll be the borrower.

No!

How does this concern you?

Grace is co-owner of the cafe.

If the cafe is in debt, she has to pay for it too.

Mommy, you said it. I am co-owner of the cafe.

So we share the bonus and shoulder the debts together.

Bonus? Or bane?

Your sis has told me everything about the cafe.

Food poisoning means no business.

You have a oashflow problem.

You're overstocked on coffee beans

and you can't pay the balance for the coffee roaster.

You are desperate.

But you'd rather come to the bank and not to me?

Would you say "yes" if I asked you?

No.

See? What's the point?

The point is, I am your mother.

You should have asked me first when you have difficulties.

You really hate me this much?

I just wanted to spare myself of a scolding.

But you deserve it.

Business was good in the first few days and you got oveqoyed.

It's usually the case when a cafe just opens for business.

The people flow will dry up once the novelty is gone.

The food poisoning was unexpected,

but you should have kept some cash to weather through it.

Your future is still uncertain. Yet you're here to borrow money?

You are digging yourselves deeper into the hole.

The cafe is Richard's...

Richards dream.

You will keep it alive for him, right?

A dream means everything?

I too dreamed of growing old with Richard.

Mommy!

10%, fine! Let's complete the paper work.

I am sorry, in your situation,

the interest rate should be...20°/o.

20%?

Now we only have one option.

Fire Fan Fatt and give up the roaster.

No! Without the roaster we won't have any freshly roasted beans.

We will have to buy ready roasted stuff.

It's against Richard's idea.

Did you know? The coffee gadgets here,

the roaster here, and the coffee tree here.

These are all Richard's ideas.

He wanted the customers to know how coffee was made.

From a seed to coffee beans,

from green beans to roasted beans.

Then they get ground and brewed into their cup of coffee.

When the urban dwellers take a coffee break,

Richard wanted them to really take a break to enjoy their coffee and life.

I got it! What Daddy wanted was to promote slow living.

Without the roaster, it would be meaningless for Mr & Mrs Bean to go on.

That's right!

Like this coffee tree.

It's frail when it's first bought.

Now it's growing fine.

White flowers will bloom and red fruit will come out.

I am sure Mr & Mrs Bean will survive this difficulty.

Hey, So Mei, but the flowers are yellow.

How come?

Take a look.

How come they are yellow?

Norman even lied about the coffee tree?

The sign is networking?

So heaven doesn't like me? I'm doomed?

The sign is broken already?

It's a bad omen.
