Nine's Soulmate

Happy?

"Take this!" In kitchen, Jiayuan played with Lin Mo, he throwing a big carrot at Lin Mo to put in fridge. They finished cooking for dinner.

"This!" This time Jiayuan throwing potato. When Bo Yuan see that, he immediately scolding them. Tell them for not to play with food, and put them properly in fridge.

Meanwhile in dining room, dinner being served one by one. Most are bought at restaurant. At home they only prepared rice, salad and soup made by Bo Yuan.

Not like usual, Liu Yu not help prepare for dinner. If normally he would help Bo Yuan cook or prepare dishes for members, this time... he just sit on chair in dining room silently. He busies with many thoughts in his head among crowd of members.

Low-key Liu Yu glanced at Nine who still busy joking with AK and Santa. Nine, he didn't look at Liu Yu at all. Liu Yu remember again what Sichao said before, about Nine who need time to open his heart again, about he that must fighting for what he wants.

Liu Yu thought hard to find a way for all of that. He can't handle if Nine keep avoiding him like that. Liu Yu afraid if this continued, their relationship would get worse. He may not only fail with his love, but he can't to be his best friend anymore.

Yeah, Liu Yu have that moment too. A moment when he fears lose Nine as his best friend if he honest and confessed his feelings to Nine. Liu Yu endured those moments, but in the end he decided to be brave. He decided to put his friendship on the line.

Liu Yu stand up from his chair and walked over to Nine with empty plate, he sits beside Nine. And then...

"Xiao Jiu." Liu Yu called Nine, making Nine, who still busy talking to other members, now turned around.

"Which one you want to eat? I'll get it for you." It's very daily word they used to say to each other almost every day, but at that time... that word, need a lot of courage to say it. Nine looked at Liu Yu, and vice versa.

Nine didn't answer and just keep staring at Liu Yu, Nine... he didn't expect Liu Yu still come to him after everything Nine done. Nine looked at empty plate that Liu Yu holding. And that made Nine feel even more guilty.

Even Nine just busy talking with other members and not with Liu Yu, but his mind couldn't stop worrying about Liu Yu who been sitting quietly in dining room alone. Silently without Liu Yu knowing, Nine care about him. The two of them still silent and staring at each other, then...

"Hey, can someone get soup in kitchen?" Bo Yuan came out with rice.

"Ge, Let me do it!" Nine immediately stand up and left, leaving Liu Yu still waiting for his answer. Nine do that on purpose. He wanted to avoid Liu Yu.

Not long after that, Nine came out slowly carrying a large bowl full of hot soup. Seeing Nine in trouble, Liu Yu wanted to help. He stands up and came to Nine. Want to take that bowl from Nine.

But, when Liu Yu's hand tried to hold that large bowl, his fingers touched Nine's. Nine startled, and...

"Prang!!!" Soup bowl fell on floor and shattered. That hot soup spilled and soaked on floor.

Dining room that so noisy before, suddenly silent. They all immediately saw soup that spilled on floor with many sharp glass shards. Nine freeze there, but Liu Yu, he calmly immediately squatted and cleaned up.

"Liu Yu, I..."

"Stay away!" Liu Yu stop Nine from come closer because so many sharp shards of glass on floor. But...

"I want to help..." Nine approached and joined Liu Yu cleaning the floor, then...

"Ah!" Careless Nine injured his hand. His hand bleeding from shards of glass quite deep. Fresh blood flowed from Nine's little hands.
