Fan Series #2; Unpredicted Dreams

22; You're Lying

ZHUBAO

I am now under a huge tree, wearing a black jacket and a cap to cover my face, I can see them all wearing white, my sight pointed the white jar he was holding, my tears started to fall, but can't do anything but to walk away.

As I walk towards the long opposite path, I felt the cold breeze of wind on my skin, I looked up as a drop of rain landed the point of my nose, maybe tomorrow we will have new beginnings.

I don't know, even though Ji was still here for me, I feel like I'm alone now, it's been a week since I left and never showed up again, they also traveled back here in China, but still I never left a trace of me, I've always been around but I didn't let them notice my presence.

I'm annoyed with myself, I'm fucked up with the fact that I left them, carrying my child, but when I remember that I did it to save my family, it's like I'm just coping up with all the pain. I miss my husband's hug, I miss their voices, but I can't do anything right now because I'm doing it for their lives.

I promised him that I will always be going home safe, and I will not break it.

I know that Ji has not forgotten that promise, that I will go home safely and unscratched, every pain is gone, and I will never break my promise to the person I love, especially also my promise to our son that I will return.

I can't let them down.

I continued walking until I reached Tianze's car, he handed me a new jacket and drove away. "Did you see your sister?" , he asked.

I shook my head, "I didn't come, I don't want to show myself to them especially since Ji is there. You know I can't leave if Yong stops me."

"Honestly, it's inside me for long. I've been wanting to ask this for a long time, why didn't you end the mess before?" he asked. "I mean, why haven't you killed them before?"

"Tianze, your questions are useless, one more thing, now that grandpa is dead, they will be even more upset, and you know that they will look for him. They are my friends, I don't know what to do, I can't kill them..." I bowed.

"Honestly, Zhubao, that's just stupid, they're not your friends anymore, they're traitors. Some people say that even your closest friend can betray you. Jiaqi and I are here to help you, just tell me... us." he said with his eyes fixed on the road.

"I need a plan first," I clenched my fists. "Can you come with me to France to talk to my parents?"

He nodded, "I will do anything to help you..."

I smiled, I never said what my heart wanted to say to him, as far as I know, I am thankful that I have a friend like them. That even though they are not in my age, they are able to understand me, they are able to give me a chance to speak for myself.

I am positive, that none of them can betray me. 

They are different from the previous ones.

YUHAN

It's been three months since Zhubao suddenly disappeared, I'm still confused about what's going on but I'm always helping them to look for her, Ji hasn't said what really happened yet but honestly, I know it hurts for him. Junhao left after the funeral; I don't know why as well. I sat on the swivel and rotated the ball pen with my fingers, we continued working and acting like nothing happened.

It was easy for them, but for me it's not. I once loved her, and it just hurts me seeing Ji in such situation, who would be happy if your wife left you all of the sudden without even telling you where she would go or what was her reason?

She is also carrying their child.

I sighed, and asked myself, "I didn't talk to Tianze gē for a long time, he disappeared after the burial, what if he knows where she is?"

I took my phone and dialed his number, in just two rings, he answered it, but it confused me that all people around him was speaking French language, that's what I hear though. 

"Bonjour?" It was a female voice who spoke.

I frowned, I didn't recognize that voice, but my mouth spoke, "Zhubao?"

I can hear her heavy breath; she might be nervous about answering what I did just said. However, she spoke, "Quelqu'un te cherche, Tenzo."

I face palmed, it wasn't Zhubao then, her voice was not that, but why the fuck did I call this French girl, Zhubao, "Where's Tianze?", I asked.

"Why do you have my phone, Bèatrix?" It was Tianze's voice, "Hello, Yuhan?"

"Who was that girl who had your phone?" I didn't know why I asked that. "It's just something that, I guess I have met her, Tianze. Is it Zhubao?"

I was too desperate asking.

"You're funny, obviously it's Bèatrix, as I said." He sarcastically laughed after saying those words that made me frown, he's lying. "Of course, it wasn't Zhubao. Why are you asking?"

"Je sais que tu sais où elle est, dis-le-moi, Tenzo." I yelled from the phone, "I know that Bèatrix is Zhubao!"

"You're acting desperate, Yuhan. I don't know where she is..." that's when he hung up and made me hit the table.

Fucking shit!

That is all bullshit!

It was Zhubao!

Zhubao and Bèatrix doesn't looked like it makes sense, but it does.

They are the same person.

"What's with the noise?!" It was Yukun. "Why are you being messy, Yuhan?"

"I called Tianze, and a woman answered the call, he called that woman as Bèatrix, but I know that was Zhubao. It was Zhubao, Tianze is hiding her from us..." I massaged my forehead.

"But did he say something suspicious?" He asked, "I mean, why did he call her Bèatrix if she is Zhubao?"

"A disguise, Yukun, a disguise. They are in France, but I don't know what place they are in there." I sighed. "We need to go to France and look for her, Tianze cannot fool me..."

I stood up and took my coat, I was about to walk away when Yukun spoke, "I know where they are, I know it all along since she left..."

I slowly turned from my shoulder, I cannot believe what he just said, he is probably lying, then something came out from my mouth, "You're lying..."
