Maybe it's our shared "halfness" or double as I've heard it referred to in Japan. Our in-between Eurasian race. OTHER as I like to check off thou I've honestly never known, perhaps still don't. Multiracial, biracial, hapa, haafu, part-Asian. Mosaic as my father likes to refer to "us" as. But when Philip and I started discussing our race there was a simple understanding between us, as if it was something unnecessary to really delve too deeply into. A shared laugh, fluidity throughout our conversation. We're of the same tribe, both proudly Asian + Caucasian. His mother hails from Hong Kong and his father from Holland. We both call New York City - the World's Sanctuary - our home. Happy to have found you here Philip ... you sexy beautiful being you.
