We will survive

{Chapter 10💕}

Sicheng's pov

"you do know that you are not allowed here anymore do you." the person said.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that...

"you wouldn't be so cruel to expose me...would you?" I said with a nervous laugh to the person behind me.
"hmm, it depends, like what is your reason to even be in here," she said still holding on to me.

Wow, she really does sound like her brother.
"Just let me go," I said.
Her hold loosened and I turned around.

She looked at me in the eyes and gave me a smile. I smiled too and gave her a huge hug.
"I missed you Yaling," I said to the younger girl. I let go of the hug and continued
"Now where is your brother...I really need to see him."

"Follow me," she said quietly.
As we walked down the streets I heard noises coming closer to us. Quickly and silently I took Yaling's arm and hid behind a pile of bricks. She looked at me confused and was about to say something, but I stopped her placing my finger to my lips signalling her to be quiet.
She nodded and started shivering because both of our lives were in danger at the moment.

I hugged her placing her head close to my heart which always calmed her down.
At last, the patrol was gone and we could continue our journey. "are you okay?" I asked her, she nodded and started walking ahead of me.

"We are here...go behind that wall and I will call my brother out to see you," Yaling said and went inside.
I hid behind the wall like she told me and waited for a few minutes.

"Winwin are you there?" I heard my friend saying.
I came behind the wall and looked at my friend smiling. He ran to me and gave me a welcoming hug.
"I missed you," he said.
"I missed you too Yangyang," I said and parted away from the hug.

"but what are you doing in here If my dad sees you here he will kill you."
"My sister told me that you needed something...what is it?" Yangyang asked and looked at me.

"About that...would you like to go on a little heist with me," I said nervously.
"I would yes, but if my father and mother finds out about it they will kill me this time," he said.
"what even is it that you need?" he continued.

"I need food and water...that's all," I said frustrated.
"You're really risking your life right now just for those?!" Yangyang said stunned.
"It's not that...it's just...it's complicated," I said
"Wait for a sec.," he said and went back inside.

I waited for a few minutes and Yangyang came back outside with his sister.
"here's some rice, eggs and beans." Yangyang said then continued -" I know it's not much but I hope this helps a little bit."
I took the food and looked at him wide eyes.
"and here's some water." Yaling said giving me two bottles of clean water. "oh, I forgot...wait a minute." Yaling said and went quietly back inside.

"how do you have all these." I said confused.
"Well our foster parent's are working with the authorities..." Yangyang confessed uncomfortably.

"So that's why they hate me." I said clearly understanding it now.
"Have they done anything to you or your sister?" I asked nervously.
Yangyang shook his head and gave me a small smile.

Yaling came back outside with a small black shoulder bag.
"here this should be good enough."
Yaling placed the food and water in the bag and gave it to me.
"You have to go...the patrol will be here in any minute now." Yangyang said.
I nodded and gave Yangyang one last hug and then to his little sister Yaling.

"Thank you so much...I won't forget this." I said and went back to the shadows.

Yangyang's pov

We walked back inside...letting out a small breath.
"Let's go to sleep." I said to my sister. We walked inside our shared bedroom.
"Do you ever miss it?" Yaling asked me while settling on her own bed.
"Miss what?" I said confused.
"Our old life in the streets."
"oh, well sometimes." I said smiling at her.
I closed my eyes and heard her mumbling something and then we both fell asleep.
