Yes, that's right.

[sometimes people just try to do a stab]

Why in the world would they stab a doctor? For fun?

Oh, well, no...

[...]

It was a complicated family situation...

They went after you because of your family? That's cowardly.

...umm.

[hm.]

My... aunt was the one who stabbed me, actually.

[Her gaze sharpens like a knife.]

...Your own family did that to you?

...I did say it was complicated.

Mm. Even so. For someone to hurt their family like that...

[....Her face hardens.]

Unforgivable.

My aunt is not a good person.

[she just says that bluntly.]

...but sooner or later she'll get what she deserves.

...Good.

[She nods at that.]

You sound like you have a plan.

Yes.

[she smiles]

She bit off more than she could chew when she decided to mess with my mother and me.

Hm. What goes around comes around.

[(hot pants voice) i support women's rights and also their wrongs]

Good.

Yes, it does.

[a beat.]

...I apologize, Miss Hot Pants. I didn't meant to start talking about my personal problems.

...

[A shake of the head.]

You don't need to apologize. I was the one who pried. So its on me. I should apologize.

...it's alright. I could have just refused to answer.

[That's true.]

Regardless...I'm glad you have hold of the reins on your own life, Doctor Su.

I am, too.

[she smiles]

I will never let someone else control my life ever again.

...And you shouldn't. Not ever. That's how it should be.

Yes.

[why is this attitude sO HARD TO COME BY IN HER CANON!!]

I'm glad you understand, Miss Hot Pants.
