"Okay kid, I have to ask. What's wrong with you?" He asks. 

He hopped on his bike and leaned forward to me.

"I'm fine." I say. 

"No, you're not. There's something in your mind." He pokes me with his little metal staff. 

"While we fought there was something." I say. 

"Oh? Love?" He asks. 

"No. Rocks." I say. 

He turns to me. 

"Rocks? Hah. They messed up your fight. You're Nezha!" He laughs.

"They weren't normal." I say.

"Oh? Then what?" He asks sitting down.

"They erupted from the ground." I say. 

He turns to me. He sits up. He runs to me. He looks at me.

"Were they black? Were they sharp??" He asks.

"Yeah. Wait, you act like you know this." I say.

He scratches himself. He turns and laughs slightly.

"She's out for blood." He chuckles to himself.

"What?" I ask. 

"Huh? Nothing. Listen kid good work today." He pats me and starts pushing me.

He pushes me to the door. 

"See ya later alligator." He pushes me out the door.

He then closes the door. He reacted when I say they erupted. He knows them. I can swear he does. I stood up. I hear a horn honk. I see Ao Bing. I smile at him. 

"Need a lift?" He calls.

"I guess so." I say.

I get in the front seat.

"Enjoy last night?" He asks.

"You put in good effort." I smile.

This feeling is like a bubbling and a warm one. Maybe it is love. Maybe it's something else.
