"I'll strangle you." I said showing him my hands and making a motion of squeezing an invisible neck. He laughed. "But if you straddle me, I'll just hold on more tightly." He said pretending as if he had heard wrong. "Strangle I said STRANGLE."I screamed. He was howling with laughter and had loosened his grip on my waist. Taking this as an opportunity, I pushed hard against his chest with my hands and rolled off to my left. I was on my knees one second and on my feet in another second.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed.

His strides were long and powerful as he walk towards me. I was stiff on the other hand, my heart thumped loudly against my chest and my hands were fisted on my side. I couldn't even mutter a sentence when his face leaned so close to mine I could feel his breath on my cheeks. "Feng-er" My eyes trembled and my heart skipped a beat. It was just a word, a single word yet it made such a large impact on my system. "Look at me" His fingers grip my chin securely, though it wasn't tight at all, I was unable to take it off. "Wh-what are you d-doing?" A shiver went down my spine when I notice the look on his eyes, it was the same from before. The same look of passion when he kissed me on the street eight years ago. "I admit I had a few girlfriends before and add some weekly romance rumors but remember this. No matter how beautiful a flower is, it won't measure to that one single flower you've cared and nurtured, personally" Then he dive in for a kiss without hearing my response. ...
