Happy.

Chunlan woke up, her heart full and fluttery. She stretched lazily like a cat, rubbing her sleepy eyes in a circular motion her lips curling upward into a tender smile as she recalled last night events.

After the tender confession, they strolled around laughing. She took out a pair of scissors, her heart beating loudly. "In ancient times, lovers cut their hair and tied it together as they made a promise of eternal love. Jihai, are you willing?"

He stared at her, taking the scissors from her as he snipped a strand of his hair and gave it to her quietly. She cut a strand of her hair and tied it together into a bow. "Keep it, Jihai. No matter where you go."

He collected the hair and tucked it in his breast pocket as he placed a kiss n her forehead. "Its time to take you back."

Chunlan's memory came to a halt as she heard someone sobbing quietly. Jumping up from the bed, she opened the bathroom door.

"Menxiang, what's wrong?" She frowned slightly.

Menxiang curled herself and lifted up her face which was a mess with tears and mucus. "He rejected me, Lan'er."

Chunlan grabbed some tissues from the cupboard and passed it to her. She stroked her hair gently. "Then it is fate, do not cry anymore. If he doesn't like you, then Mingwen likes you. Just move on!"

Menxiang snorted angrily. "How can I forget him so easily when I have loved him since I was a child?"

"I don't care! Menxiang, life is short you mustn't make careless mistakes."

Sensing Menxiang's pondering, she continued. "After this semester, during the holidays give Mo Bingwen a chance. You have nothing to lose."

"Chunlan, I will do as you say."

  Jihai closed his laptop, sighing. Finally he had sent an email to Colossus, accepting the internship. He was still reluctant to go but he knew it was necessary in giving Chunlan the life she deserved.

Dialing a number in his phone, he waited until he heard a voice. "Jihai."

"Chunlan." He closed his eyes, her voice floating peacefully into his ears.

"I was about to call you." A tinge of shyness colored her tone.

"What is it?"

"I heard from a classmate that the deadline of Colossus is today. I hope you have submitted your reply?"

"Yes."

"Okay. Our holiday begins tomorrow, will you miss me?"

Jihai fell quiet as his mind tried to process the question, trying to come up with the best answers to please her. He knew she hated the fact that he wasn't  romantic. He had tried to learn though.

"Eh."

"I will miss you too. Jihai let's have a date before we go home, okay?" Her voice became livelier as she grew excited.

He smiled. "Okay."

"Jihai, I.....love you!" She smiled shyly at the other end.

At met silence instead. Jihai was stunned, his heart beating frantically. He still wasn't used to this side of her, that part that was warm and cuddly, caring and loving.

After a while, Chunlan got impatient. Why wasn't he responding? Hadn't he confessed his feelings already?

"Jihai, I love you. Do you love me?"

Coming to reality, he nodded. Remembering it was a phone call, he said "Yes."

Yes? 

She confessed to him two times and all he said was yes? Calming herself she said cheerfully "Oh, okay. I'm hanging up."

"Bye."
