"That's me" // Xukun's FF

Chapter 11

Nana's POV

"They are coming," Qinjia announces with panic evident in her voice. She looks around nervously and for a second I wonder what is going on inside her head. I quickly check if everything has been deleted, unplug the charger, put it on its previous place and close the laptop. Qinjia makes her way to the door but I quickly grab her hand to stop her as I hear voices outside.

"They are almost here. We can't go outside they will see us," I explain dragging her to the wardrobe. I push her inside and manage to make a small gap between the door and frame so I can see what is going on. Suddenly the boys come in and I feel Qinjia gripping my beautiful dress. For a moment I forgot about the stress I've just felt and get annoyed instead. I would slap her hand away but I cannot make any unnecessary noises. I breathe deeply trying to be as quiet as possible.

"I think I have to talk to others more...to know them better I mean as I had before the accident. I feel like so strange because everyone knows about me almost everything while I know almost nothing about them," Xukun explains while I text Ziyi about my location. I can see him glancing at the door and I see him typing something. In the last moment I turn off the volume in my phone.

From Ziyi:

When I'll give you a sign leave.

Suddenly I can hear someone's phone behind me and I look at the girl with murderous eyes.

"Did you hear that?" Xukun asks and I know we are screwed. Thanks Qinjia...

The girl looks at me sheepishly and if I could I would kill her right on the spot. Next time I will go solo. I watch through the gap what is going on inside but I can't see much. I only relay on Ziyi.

Footsteps can be heard nearby and I close my eyes as I don't want to see him when he finds us. Even though it is so stupid but still it makes me feel a bit better.

"Xukun, I missed you!" Yanjun screams and I think I can hear him sobbing. I peek inside and see Ziyi in utter shock. I watch him waiting patiently and finally he makes an eye contact with me. He waves his hand gesturing me to go outside and I grab Qinjia's hand again and try to walk out as quietly as possible.

Yanjun cries hugging Xukun so he is facing the opposite directions. "My god, I was so afraid you won't make it or that you won't remember me and you're my best buddy..." Yanjun says making much noise while I finally manage to get out with Qinjia.

She smiles at me sighing deeply out of relief and I don't know if I should be happy or kill her first. We go to her room and plop down on her bed.

"That was something...now I know why you like action movies," Qinjia says chuckling under her breath while I try to catch mine. My heart beats rapidly as if I was still there without a way out thinking about the worst scenario where Xukun actually finds us. I don't think how would I explain our presence in his wardrobe.

"Yeah...but let's not do this ever again," I respond looking at the white ceiling calming down.

"Why? It was fun," she states covering my view with her face.

"It was fun...but it wouldn't have been if we had been caught, don't you think?" I answer and the girl pouts sitting up at the edge of the bed. I came back to the ceiling losing myself in my thoughts. So many things happened today...so many things that had happened before. I try to understand the situation but it is just too hard. Back then I think I liked him already but I didn't love him the way I love him now. So it's hard to go through it all again now that he knows my name as if we just met. Why couldn't I forget everything, too? Just like him. It would be a lot easier if we were on the same page. But he is at the beginning while I'm already in the middle...
