Chapter 125 - ...band aid (1/2)

Before Su Yan could get to her, Tale was out the door and running to nowhere in particular. He would chase her but maybe it was better. He let her go and shut the door behind him heading upstairs to his room, slamming the door behind him.

Tale stood in front of her parents house with wet eyes. She hadn't been crying but she was on the verge of doing so. For a minute when all three of them had looked at her with disappointment written on their faces she was afraid she was now in yet another cage, where her decisions didn't matter. It was always about the rest of the world and not her. But she shook her head to the thoughts. ”Don't overthink it, it's only just a misunderstanding,” she talked to herself.

She was going to go back where she came when headlights flashed her way. It was her dad's car.

”I guess this is it,” she said under her breathe as she helped opened the gate for him to drive in.

Government Residential Area Phase Two.

Tale was predictable, or so they thought. She had nowhere to go asides her parents house, but that didn't seem possible as they were still mad at her for quitting her job. And that was the base of Su Yan's worry, he was sitting outside the door and calling her phone for what seemed like the thousand time.

She wasn't going to give him a heart attack that woman. She just wouldn't.

”She's okay I'm sure,” Precious came outside to meet him. ”Tale is truly an... interesting human.”

Su Yan faked a smile.

”All I'm saying is, you should have let it run it's course.”

Su Yan frowned now.

”I mean, Tale wasn't going to move out without letting you know, it's quite obvious. Maybe she was only looking and have no plans of leaving now.”

”You didn't see her, she looked—”

”Happy?” Precious raises her brows at him. ”She deserves to be—”

”What are you saying?”

”I'm saying, she's been through quite a lot these past months and we are lucky, I am lucky she didn't fall into depression along the way. She just started living. I am saying let her, let her be herself. You don't want her to feel trapped and push her to a place where she wouldn't be free to tell you what she is up to until it's too late, you really don't,” Precious sighed.

”I just wish she could have told me, what if she's tired of staying with me, with us?” he replied sounding worried.

Precious laughed out loud. ”Oh my god, you sound pitiful. You really panicked huh?”

He nodded, checking his phone again hoping she calls.

”If Tale isn't tired of me yet, then you are nowhere close to getting sidelined. She loves you.”

Su Yan tensed, he was yet to hear that from Tale herself.

Precious drew close to him resting her head on his shoulder.
