Xin Yong who just heard the most shocking gist of her life gaped at her friend in surprise.

"You.. mean.. Liu Wei?... You are falling... for.. Liu Wei? "

She sat upright immediately as her eyes widened with glee.

Liling couldn"t speak, she lay staring at her friend with mixed feelings.

"Oh My G.o.d!! Lee Liling is finally in love. Isn"t this a miracle? This calls for a celebration. OMG!!"

Xin Yong jumped on the bed with joy and inexplicable happiness.

"Xin Yong, he is engaged!, you should be helping me get out of this misery not pus.h.i.+ng me deeper into it. "

Liling sighed as she frowned at her obviously excited friend.

Xin Yong, hearing that, slumped back into the bed. Her wide smile contracted immediately, she looked at her friend who had a confused expression on her face. After sometime, she chuckled lightly.

"Ha, I don"t b.l.o.o.d.y care about his fiancé, as long as they are not married yet, he"s still single and.. "

"Xin Yong!, imagine if someone wants to take Jin Yue away from you? "

"No, no, don"t go there, not happening!!"

Xin Yong exclaimed lightly laughing. Liling glared at her and replied quietly.

"Thank G.o.d you know how it feels! "

The room gradually became quiet. The two friends lay staring at the ceiling. After sometime, Liling spoke up.

"I didn"t know when my thick walls started collapsing, but when I found out, it was already too late.

I"m not sure if I should call myself stupid or being too naive, haha. Or maybe, I just didn"t want to accept that I was attracted to him at that time.
I s.h.i.+elded away from the truth until it was right there before me, staring at my face.

I"ve been avoiding him for a while now, and it"s becoming extremely awkward in the house. But you know what?

If you ask me why I"m avoiding him, I can"t even say. My legs just keep telling me to run.

Sometimes I ask myself why I"m running away, and no matter how much I crack my head for a useful reason, I can"t provide any.

Xin Yong, do you know? If he is close to me, my heart feels as though it"s about to break through my chest. Haha. "

Liling pulled her hair as she lamented to her friend her misfortune.

Xin Yong didn"t say any word, she just lay there quietly and waited patiently for Liling to complete her story.

"Sometimes I feel I need to see a psychiatrist, because, he"s always in my dreams, my thoughts, my head!. Ha!. I"m crazy right? "

Liling turned to look at Xin Yong who shook her head immediately.

"Liling, it"s like this because you are refusing it and again, you get to see him everyday, so your heart would skip a beat anytime you see him, and since you both live in the same house, you"ll be panicking most of the time. "

Silence engulfed them but after some seconds, she continued.

"My beautiful friend, I"m very happy for you, but it"s sad that Liu Wei had a fiancée already. Tsk Tsk.

Liling, are you sure that he"s really engaged? Jin Yue has never mentioned it to me."

Xin Yong asked looking really surprised. She was sure Jin Yue had told her that Liu Wei liked her friend, it was surprising to hear that he already had a fiancée. Liling thought for a while, then replied.

"The thing is, I didn"t really hear the whole story, but from the part I heard clearly, his father said he"ll be getting married to that lady by the end of the year."

"Alright, but I"ll still ask Jin Yue later, though indirectly so he"ll not suspect anything. If he"s engaged as you have said, in as much as I want you both together, I can"t destroy his present relations.h.i.+p, so in the mean time, you have to start making friends, so your mind won"t be occupied by him alone."

Xin Yong smiled at her friend who was already glaring at her.

"Who says my mind is occupied by him alone?"

"Haha, Liling, you said that just now!"

"Me? When? "
Liling asked, trying to deny it. Xin Yong burst out laughing.

"Don"t worry BFF, I won"t tell anyone. Best friend"s secrets. Haha"

Liling took a pillow and threw at her face as Xin Yong laughed the more.
