When I was a little girl
Grandma told me
The most interesting story I've ever heard
Every night
The Guia Lighthouse turns and turns
Illuminating the night skies of Macao
But there's a secret no one knows about
At some point the lighthouse
will stop turning for a very brief moment
and shine its light beam towards the post
the Northern Jetty "Waiting is an awful desert"
When that happens
The treasure hidden underneath
the post will be uncovered
to row a boat out there
will get the treasure
Really? Have you ever gone out there, Grandma?
What's the treasure?
Tell me! What's the treasure?
Which means...
If you get the treasure,
you won't be afraid of anything
How about my dad?
Has he gone out there?
I've heard of that story long ago
My cousin said he's been out there
He went by himself? That's so brave
Lucky him. I wish I could have the treasure
That's no big deal
Even my grandma's been out there
Grandma
I want to go out there
You think Dad will go with me?
Your dad is learning to do business
like everyone else, so he has no time
Besides, he's not brave at all
Grandma loved me very much
She knew I loved milk, so every day after school
She would heat up some milk for me
Here, have some milk
She practically raised me
No one knew me like she did
There's some coins on the table
Go get yourself some game cards
Hello?
Hello, Dad
I want to go see something, can you go with me?
You know how busy I am, honey.
I don't have the time
But Grandma said...
Hello? I'm busy now, let's talk later, okay?
Lok-yi, It's time to set out
Set out?
Tomorrow I'll go with you
Don't you be afraid
I'll be shining this light on you
Mr. Lin?
I'm Lok-yi Peng from National Realty
Any thoughts on the house we saw yesterday?
Didn't I tell you to leave work on time?
You still went over
at the expense of your personal time
Is it worth it? Don't you feel tired?
Carol
Of course I'd like things
to go my way if possible
But it's not up to me
Don't you know
Money isn't everything
But without money you can't do anything
I don't want to end up with nothing but a dream
I bet you'd be a great teacher
What you said makes a lot of sense
But my dream is different from yours
I WANT TO -- MAKE BIG BUCKS!!!
You're exaggerating
- Gold digger
- No, I'm not
Nope
Greedy for money, you do LOVE money
True. Just a little, not much at all
Are you worried about not finding Mr. Right?
Of course not, you're losing it
Honestly?
Yes
Okay... Bye bye
Excuse me nurse, where's the emergency room?
End of the hall turn left
Thank you
Ma'am
it's getting late
Dad
If you won't work with us
I'll have to take you back to the precinct
Officer
You don't need to ask her anymore
Who in her right mind would take
her granddaughter out to the sea?
The kid's only ten
she doesn't know anything
Your grandmother took you out to the sea?
I see
I'll return to my post, then
Thank you, officer
I thought you were too busy to come visit
I don't know
why you're so obsessed with that story
Yes
It's true I don't have the time
to take care of her
I'm not brave enough to take her out to the sea
She said she really wanted to do it
But she was afraid to do it alone
That's human nature
If this goes on
How do you think she'll
turn out when she grows up?
But it's for the two of you
that I'm working so hard
She's my only child
Can you promise not to
take her out to the sea again?
How many people
can remain true to themselves until the very end?
Actually
I was the one who wanted to go out there
would I be any different now?
After Ponte de Amizade was built
The society
Became more and more profit-minded
And with it went...
My childhood
HEY:
Want me to come give you a lift?
No, thanks
I'm home already
Okay
Come home to eat whenever you have time
Okay
By the W3Y
Yesterday a client
gave a really good offer for grandma's house
Grandma gave you that house
You do as you see fit
You should get some rest, it's late
Don't sleep in the car all the time
Alright
I go work now
Talk soon, bye
Bye
Hello?
What?
You mean my client, Mr. Lin?
He signed with Carol?
I forgot to dye my hair
Dad
Yes?
Am I a useless pushover?
Of course not
When you were little
You went out to the sea
Even though you didn't reach the destination
I couldn't even get in the boat
Your grandma used to call me a coward
If I sold the house she left me
Do you think she would be upset?
You've decided to sell it?
Either way is fine with me
Your grandma and I
Do not have much to leave you
The house will be our way to make it up to you
Do you still remember...
When you were young, you said you wanted to teach
To be a good teacher
But now you're working in real estate
The world we live in makes us change
So...
Whether or not to sell the house
It's entirely up to you
Would she be very disappointed
to see how I've turned out?
No, I'm sure of it
I always feel...
You've inherited the good things
from your grandmother
If you stick to your guns
It's only a matter of time that
you will find the treasure
"The Waiting"
"Waiting is an awful desert"
"Between where we are and where we want to be"
"People do not like such a desert"
"We want to get out by doing something..."
"Something awful to ourselves"
Hello, it's me
I was out yesterday,
I'm calling to tell you that
I'm fine, you don't need to worry
Even if we hadn't broken up,
I didn't suppose you were really going to wait
for me for 10 years, I just want to...
I just want to...
I want to thank you
for visiting me for the first 9 years
I don't know how to thank you
Even though you didn't come for the past year
But I completely understand
I'll work hard and start a new life
You have to keep chasing your dream too
Even in different corners of this city
Together, we shall forget what is behind and...
Forget what is behind
and strain toward what is ahead
Strain toward what is ahead
Goodbye
Hello?
Hello, it's me
Who is this?
When did you come out?
Just yesterday
l.
Can you come out now?
I'm in the middle of something now
I won't take up a lot of your time
I just want to see you,
for just a little while
I'm sorry, I just can't today
I'm waiting for you at Antonio's
"7I34am"
Sorry, I'll clean it up later
The waiter just quit, it's chaotic
And now it's dead
Get busy living
Or get busy waiting
The clock stopped running for years
It's now 2:
45pmYou've been working the whole day, eat something
Whenever it rains, the roof leaks
Mom and Dad have arthritis
I want to fix it before I leave
Towel, toothbrush,
I've packed everything for you
I'm going to prison, not camping
Have you been to prison?
You know how it is inside?
Of course it's better to be prepared
HEY:
HEY:
I made this
You have to be looking sharp when you come out
And
Sometimes, when I smell you on my clothes
