One day, my father suddenly had a whim. He built himself a sturdy boat, waved goodbye to his family and walked to a big river not far from home. It is not a long journey, nor an escape, but a boat floating alone on the river. I just need my son's food.

His family tried their best to get him back to his native land, but he remained the same. Finally, the son who had dyed his hair and sideburns swore to him from the other side that he would inherit his father's undisputed career as long as he came back. The father approached the shore happily, but the son couldn't stand the image of his father from outer space and ran away in fear. Father never showed up again.
