288 Its not you (2/2)

How long had he prayed to be able to hold her like this? How much he wished to touch her again; even though it was for a split second, he didn't mind, he was okay.\

He had never imagined that she would hug him again, so at that moment, even though it was involuntarily, he was glad_ extremely glad.

After a few seconds of staring at her face, he continued walking towards his car; when he approached; he opened the passenger's car door and gently placed her inside.

Liling said as Jin Yue closed the door.

He nodded briefly. Now he thought about it; he had even forgotten about her parents; they would never want to see him anywhere near their daughter again.

He turned to look at Xin Yong who was sitting inside his car, a breeze of sadness washed through him.

If he could stop the hands of time at that moment, he would, to be able to stare at her forever, without thinking of the hurdles between them, but sadly it wasn't possible.

In the next few minutes, she would be home and he would be nowhere near her, this could be the last time he would see her like this, the last time she would sit in his car and probably

the last time he would touch her again.

Before she ended things between them, he had thought that she would forgive him and come back to him, so he hadn't been attentive to their lasts, but now he was given another chance, he was going to cherish every bit of it.

Dragging his feet to the other side, he sat down and started the ignition, after waiting for Liling to enter her car; he drove out of the parking lot.

''Jin Yue…''

Jin Yue nearly swerved into another lane when Xin Yong whispered his name, his heart almost jumped out of its cage from how fast it was banging.

He instantly turned to look at her; her eyes were still closed but her brows were creased and she looked really sad.

They were at a red light, so Jin Yue stopped the car and continued staring at her carefully. She looked as though she was struggling within her; she seemed tensed and although he didn't have any right to, he couldn't stop his hand from reaching over and pushing some strands of hair behind her ear.

As his hands touched her skin, she shivered a little. After tucking in her hair, Jin Yue traced her face slowly as he engraved every inch of her feature in his mind.

Jin Yue lost himself staring at her that he did not notice when the green lights came back on and the cars behind started honking.

Coming back to his senses, he withdrew his hand to continue driving.

The loud honks aroused Xin Yong and her eyes fluttered open, she stared straight on the road for some time as though trying to remember how she got there, after some seconds, she turned to look at the driver.

''Jin Yue? …''

She said in a whisper and Jin Yue froze for a few seconds. Summoning a great deal of courage, he turned to look at her.

''Is that you? ''

She said again, this time her eyes were misty,

Jin Yue was quiet; he couldn't bring himself to respond.

''No, it's not you, Jin Yue cannot be here, I ended things with him already. ''
