The exam had finished and more people gathered by the gates. Almost everyone that passed by the strikingly attractive pair would involuntarily slow down and take a few more looks. But Serena didn't notice them, because when Ash spoke, she already was transported into outer space.

I was waiting for you......

I was waiting for you......

I was waiting for you......

......

This voice......

This voice......

This voice......

Serena stared at the person in front in bewilderment. In his eyes, there was the reflection from the sun. It made him seem less real and warmer. His aura still calm and patient.

Serena moved her lips and soundlessly spoke. She took a deep breath and controlled the whirlwind in her hear. Opened her mouth, and with 150% disbelief, she said: ",,,,,, Satoshi?"

The person opposite stared at her, and replied with no hesitation: "It's me."

In a moment, Serena only had one thought in her head––Lucky, luckily she hadn't brought that pair of crystal high heels. Otherwise she probably would have broken them by now due to the shock.

Satoshi Ash Satoshi Ash Satoshi Ash ...... the two names turned over and over in her head, but she just couldn't merge them together. How could Satoshi be Ash? How, how...... even though Satoshi seemed also very great, but she had never thought he was this great.

Also, how did he recognize her?

Too many shocks, too many questions. Serena wasn't able to ask any of them, and felt that even the person in front of her seemed more like an illusion than real. The card in her hand was being grasped so tightly it tore. What she wanted to do the most was rush to a phone booth and call that number, to see if Ash's cellphone would ring......

And this time, she finally detected the inquisitive gazes coming from around them.

Ash didn't care for the stares of the bystanders. He raised his wrist to look at the time, "You handed your exam in early?"

Serena hesitantly nodded once.

"Almost let you wait again."

Eh?

Serena didn't understand what he was mentioning while looking into his eyes which were focused on her. Half a beat later, she realized he was referring to missing the finals.

He was really Satoshi......

Serena started to lose focus and shook her head: "No......"

But she didn't know what she was saying "no" to.......

Ash stared deeply at her, a hint of laughter floating at his lips. He said, "Let's go eat first."

He started to walk inside the campus, Serena following after. No matter what, anything was better than standing there for people to look at. But after a few steps, she couldn't prevent herself from looking back at the Eastern Doors.

Later...... would another Satoshi appear over there?

Even though the truth was already very evident, Ash was Satoshi, but but, it still didn't feel real......

When she turned her head, her steps slowed. When she turned back, Ash had stopped to wait for her. Serena embarrassedly hastened to catch up. Ash waited for her to come closer and asked very seriously: "Serena, do you eat fish?"
