Their feelings grew on each other, but neither of them were swayed by such emotions. They were both sly and smart and so, they knew each other's feelings but said nothing.

Xuan Mu always respected her wishes; he never suggested anything because he was patiently waiting for her not to be scared and make the first move. And he was right.

After four months, out of nowhere, she sent him a picture of herself. The ugliest one she could find. It was a photo from her ID.

"I look like a murderer, right?" Bing Shi laughed gleefully. As always, they were inside their bedrooms, playing games together.

Xuan Mu was shocked beyond belief; would someone like her send pictures of herself to someone like him?

"No, not at all... you're actually pretty," Xuan Mu looked at the round girl with black hair combed into a ponytail. Her tightly pressed lips looked as if she was holding back a toothy smile. 'So this isn't a dream? She is real...'

'So pretty...' He got a reaction... from her face? No, it was the thought of her, showing her attachment to him. He looked down in between his legs. 'What is she doing to me?'

"Thank you. Can you show me yourself?" she asked.

He went to the bathroom to take a picture of himself and did as she wished.

"You look nice," she looked at a skinny young boy with a gloomy look. The dark circles under his eyes and some pimples here and there were the most prominent features on his face. Did he try to surpass her murderer look?

"T-thanks," Xuan Mu stuttered.

His stability was getting worse and worse. He started to get more nightmares about Bing Shi leaving. He thought it would be enough to be friends, but the amount of wet dreams and dirty thoughts he had about her, turned him into a pervert rather than a friend. The more she showed attachment to him, the more he wanted her but at the same time, he also didn't want to dirty her with his presence. 'She should stay untouchable. Nobody is worthy of her.'

"Do you like me more than a friend?" After a year and a half, she asked him out of the blue.

"I do," Xuan Mu answered straightforwardly. His heartbeat accelerated; his whole body felt hot.

Note N.6. - Just tell the truth; she knows the answer already.

"I do too. Let's date online. Here is my number. But don't call me. Just text," she gave him her contact info.

'She likes me more than a friend?' Xuan Mu's young heart exploded from too many emotions. He was looking at his monitor with his mouth agape. Then, he closed his mouth; dark thoughts started to blur his mind. 'Is she my girlfriend now?'

'So from now on, she belongs to me? Does it mean she will never leave me?' That's when hell broke down for Xuan Mu. His obsession with Bing Shi brought out the worst in him, and he felt so powerless against it...

Xuan Mu wanted to occupy all of her time. He started to get irritated whenever she left to help out her parents. Even in games, if she began to speak to somebody, his mood would turn black. For him, every action she took was considered cheating.
