Present Day

Qing's POV

I really didn't think carefully. I let it slipped my mind; about that room. It was there that I lost my mind because I was so hurt over, what I thought was Dayu's betrayal.

Now that Dayu had reminded me; It came back to me with a vengeance. My despicable words, my despicable behaviour. Everything about that day; came back to me and the memory was tortoring me silently.

And, though Dayu told me that he didn't mind the room and it's history between us anymore; that he's not hung up on the past anymore; I still fear that the memory would haunt him. No; actually, the memory haunted me the most. I couldn't forget my own words which I threw at him that day; and I was getting angrier angrier at myself.

I would renovate that room. I would to take the room away and I would make sure that neither Dayu nor I would be reminded of that day, ever.

And for that, we would have to live somewhere else in the mean time. I would tell Dayu once he visit me next time.

I glanced at Dayu, who was having a video call with the cafe staffs, in the living room. And I saw just how relaxed his expression became. My heart throbbed and I got jealous. This petty heart of mine, got jealous easily but only when it comes to that man.

I thought I was someone who could always hold my emotions in; I could even host the wedding of the person I fell in love with, and watched her leave with her new husband. So, I didn't know that the anger I felt whenever I thought or saw Dayu with someone else before was jealousy.

In these three years, I learnt a lot about myself. I truly thought that I  loved Lin Min Mei but as it turned out, it was a little less than that. Now, I knew that it was just a puppy love. She's pretty and she treated me like any other person she knew. She didn't look at me and saw my status or my money. Back then, she was so innocent and sweet and that's what made her special.

But, it was not true love. She was not even my first love. I was drawn to her kindness; that's all. 

I realised everything after I sat down on the third day that I lost Dayu, staring at the horizon unable to sleep.  In the cold hours of dawn, it hit me ; just how different my feelings were when I was with Dayu compared to what I had felt for Lin Min Mei.
