Chapter 73 - Soul-sisters. (2/2)
”Okay, if I have missed anything just give me a quick recap of it. Quick .Quick .Quick”, Daiyu pouted.
Guang ignored her and walked towards Lifen. her palms rested on her shoulder, ”Do you want to tell us about it?”
Tears slipped out her eyes with a single warm touch. She turned her body around, sitting on the chair and hugged Guang, head buried in her stomach.
Guang gently brushed hair to calm her down. Daiyu rushed forward when she saw this happening, ”What's happening? Please tell me clearly. Why is she crying here? Did anything happen between you and Deming?”
Hearing his name again, she digged her head deeper in her embrace, tightening her arms around her.
Daiyu went to close the door of the room. Guang held Lifen gently up and help her towards bed.
Few hours passed by, there was a sudden knock on the door, ”Girls, I have brought some pasteries for you three. Open the door fast”. Mother Wu has brought pasteries for them according to their preferences.
The door squeaked open and Guang came out consciously, ”Aunty, thanks for this. We will have it”.
Mother Wu nodded her head, ”What are you girls doing inside locking the door? And yeah, did you found the reason for Lifen avoiding the college?”
”Aunty there is nothing to worry about her. She is all fine. She is just working on one of the projects given to us and she has applied for scholarship in a university. That's all”
Hearing this Mother Wu relaxed. Since the day, she has returned late at night, Lifen was behaving differently. She has kept herself in the room and when asked she would just say that there are some projects to work on.
Guang got back into the room and closed the door behind her. ”So now, what are you planning to do?”, Daiyu asked in a gentle voice.
”Are you going back to Wang Corporation?”
”No”, Lifen shook her head. Sharing her heart pain with her friends, she was now feeling much better from before. It is said correctly, 'Sharing pain with right people lessens it and sharing happiness multiplies it'.
Lifen stood up, ”I have applied for a scholarship. If I succeed then I am going overseas. I think it would be the best choice for my future”.
She turned to look at their expression but there was nothing awkward in their express. She knew her friends will always support her decision. She gave a group hug to them.
”What about Deming? Are you going to leave him like that? He has done the worst to you”, Daiyu said, her eyes filled with rage.
”No, I won't blame him for anything. He has done all these things because he has loved someone very dearly that it has washed away the silver line of good and the evil. There is nothing to blame him. There is resentment in my heart for him”, she said with a insignificant smile on her lips.
”And there is one thing I need to tell you. I have hidden something from you two. If possible, please don't resent me for that. I would have told you about it but...”, Lifen was interrupted in between by Guang.
”You don't have to. If you don't feel like telling us something, you don't have to force yourself. We won't ever blame you because we know each other very well. We are best friends forever and nothing can change that”.
They shared a group hug again. Lifen knew that good friends were precious jewels of life and she was proud of her friendship. It was as clear as water of Blue Lake.
”Hey, accompany me to the college tomorrow. I need to apply for the transfer certificate”, Lifen said breaking their hug.
”When are you leaving? Do Aunty know about your decision?”, Daiyu asked.
”It's not this soon guys. And don't tell Mumma about this. I will inform her after the confirmation ”, Lifen said while thinking something.
