The Golden Flower and The Dream Book 4

78

Lillie got up and went back inside. She closed the backyard slide door and put on her jacket and left her house. It was starting to get colder. The month passing and getting colder. It will soon become a frozen place. Snowflakes falling,footprints in the snow. Feng Hao was outside too hanging out with Qing and the Shiratorizawa VB team. Lillie put on her hood and ran into Ukai's store. He was there reading a book and putting his legs on the counter like always. Lazy and grumpy man. He didn't know that Lillie was there. His reading made him focus on the book.

Lillie bought some things and put it on the counter, Ukai finally stop reading and rung up everything. Lillie paid him and left.
"Your chang-" he said but she cut him off.
"Keep it Keishin. I don't need it." She replied and left. Ukai was holding her change and wanted to give it to her but he followed what she said and put it in the tip jar. After she left she went to park where Jiuniang was left and sat down on a bench. The same bench where her Ukai had a talk about love. Lillie ate the sandwich she bought and drank the bottled lemonade. While watching the flower fall before winter comes. The petals and flowers has fallen now. Snowflakes begin to fall from the sky. Everyone look around and was mesmerize and amaze. Kids playing and catching snowflakes on their tongue. Lillie smiled and finished her food and threw it away.

"Winter has come already...the flowers and petals are gone and dead already. Soon the year and month will end. I'll be waiting to see it grow again"
Lillie started walking again and bumped into Feng Hao. They look at each other and walked away pretending it didn't happened.

Feng Hao's POV:
I bump into Lillie like in the beginning. I wanted to say something to her but I couldn't after what happened...between us. It is starting to get cold and it's snowing. How is she able to wear a skirt in the cold?
Qing was yelling my name and I couldn't hear it. Then she yelled louder and I ran to her. Once I got to her I look back and saw Lillie walking with Yashiro. The man who tried to kidnap her..why is she with him? I don't know.
Qing grab my sleeve and we continued to catch up with the others.
Is this what Qing felt when she didn't tell her feelings to Breeze?...lonely and sad? But now, as I look at her she seems happy since Ushijimaand the team is here. Like if she had forgotten about it.
Maybe a second chance might come and she might be able to tell him before it's too late.

End of Feng Hao's POV

Lillie's POV:
Me and Feng Hao walk pass each other. We didn't make a single contact. He never answered my question yet but maybe soon he will. I just need to give him more time to think. But it felt like we were strangers to each other...maybe I need to go and see a good friend of mine. Not Avira but someone who will understand me.

End of Lillie's POV
