Chapter 41: Ms. Cherry A.K.A Your Wife, Xu Mey

"Life ends when you stop Dreaming...

Hope ends when you stop Believing...

Love ends when you stop Caring...

Friendship ends when you stop Sharing..."

Isn't this the reality of life? Of us as a human?

Xu Mey went through a phase of life where there was no dream. But someone gave her the courage to dream again. Even if the dream was to take back what belonged to her. She lost the belief in life and destiny but that dream brought a ray of hope with it. Friendship and sharing were taught to her by her best friends and with friendship, she learned the meaning of love.

Therefore, the caring associated with love for her was purely platonic. Ye Jun was not wrong when he said that she was worried for him because of Ye Jie. No one can deny the fact that Xu Mey was not a nice person to strangers. But if you're related to someone that matters to her, she'll do anything for you.

Xu Mey never felt embarrassed before in her life. Her shameless friends made her into a person that didn't blush over small matters. But with Ye Jie, it was completely at a whole new level. He was her husband but she wasn't comfortable with him yet.

When she saw the 'most of the eaten' food on the table, another wave of warmth spread into her heart. Her lips hooked up into a smile. She warmed up the leftovers and packed them into a bento box to take with her.

She had thought of giving an answer to Ye Jie's question but she couldn't say it at his face. Thinking back to Lin Shen's suggestion, she decided to write a note. It was a very old fashioned way but she liked it. It gave a classic feeling which she loved.

Ye Jie's blazer was laying on the couch and Ye Jie was still upstairs with Ye Jun. Seizing the golden opportunity, Xu Mey looked left and right to make sure no one was around and put the note in his inner pocket sneakily. Later on, when she saw Ye Jie heading down, she acted like an innocent person who didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

The more you try to act normal, the more you appear to be suspicious. That was happening with Xu Mey. She was hoping to give an innocent impression while Ye Jie was getting cynical vibes from her. But seeing the bento box in her hand and empty dining table, his suspicion turned into a cheeky grin.

Xu Mey's heart had skipped so many beats since dawn because of Ye Jie that she was afraid of getting arrhythmia at this rate. She strived to elude but to her dismay, Ye Jie placed both his hands on the backrest of the couch caging her in. To hold the backrest, Ye Jie had to incline forward and that brought his face near hers leaving little space between them.

His spearmint breath assaulted her senses as her heart skipped another beat and she turned her face sideways to avoid his gaze. But this action didn't annoy Ye Jie in the least. In fact, it made his cheeky grin more prominent. "Are you scared of me, dear wife?"

"N, No... Absolutely not." She still kept her eyes away looking anywhere but him.

"Won't you give me a good day kiss before leaving?" Xu Mey abruptly looked at his face making their lips almost touch. Ye Jie laughed heartily at her panicked expression. He even felt her body trembling lightly and decided not to scare her anymore. "Since you won't..." He dragged his words and left a soft kiss on her hair making her body stiffen and her heart a wild mess.

"Have a good day Ms. Cherry. And miss me a little bit." With this, he moved back waving his hand in a way to let her know that she's free to leave.

Xu Mey stood there frozen for a moment. She turned to leave but halted after a few steps. "You too have a good day, Mr. Rain." She left after these words with her high ponytail swinging with her each step.

'The day will be good now that you said it. And I think I'm gonna miss you even though you didn't ask me to.' Ye Jie chuckled a bit watching her disappearing figure and shook his head lightly.

Leaving some instructions for the maid to take care of Ye Jun, he left the house as well. It was not sunny today. The shadows of clouds were dominating the sky. But Ye Jie felt like this was the brightest day.

At the office, his good mood was infectious for his employees. After all, it made their life easier than yesterday.

He spent the entire morning going through all the proposals related to their Online Gaming investment. In his arduous work, he didn't find the note until Ye Jun's call made him pick up his blazer to pull out the cellphone from the inner pocket. With the phone, the note also came out. Ye Jie frowned and opened the note to read.

"Mr. Ye Jie/ Husband,

I know, its a very archaic way of giving my answer but I couldn't think of anything else.

I've always associated time with moments. Because time doesn't make moments instead it's moments that make the time worthwhile. If you can appreciate my presence, I won't disappoint you with my absence. That's the answer to your first question.

As for the words, some people say that words are just words, it's the actions that matter. But you're right, I'm a dense person. Actions are always misinterpreted by me. And I do need words to understand anything. But as much as I want to hear those words, I don't like saying them out loud myself. I'm not so comfortable with words because they end up hurting others.

But if you're willing to share words with me, I'm not an ungrateful person. I'll try my best to speak up as much as I can. But I hope you know when to stop asking.

Ms. Cherry a.k.a Your Wife, Xu Mey."

Now, this just made the day a whole lot brighter for Ye Jie.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS

Do you know what the funniest thing about writing is?

It's the fact that it can make you forget your own world.

The reason I fell in love with writing was very simple; I wanted my words to bring change. A change that could make someone smile or cry or even feel loved.

Words are powerful but they are very treacherous as well. So always remember that your one word can change someone's life.

---------

Now, don't forget to share your thoughts.

Until next time!!!

Chapter 42: Life Is A Game, Only Destiny Knows How To Play It

Some words are bitter. Some words are sweet. Some words are powerful yet some words are weak.

But...

Some words are just simple. Yet those simple words are the heaviest. They carry the burden of feelings. Heartfelt feelings. Unpretentious feelings. Pure feelings.

Therefore, in reality, words are not simple. They can't be. As long as feelings are involved. No words are ordinary.

Currently, Ye Jie was lost in his reverie. Xu Mey's subtle yet radiant smile under the rays of the sun was the only thing circulating in his mind making a silly smile appear on his handsome face.

The constantly ringing phone by his side was entirely neglected.

But our second young master was a persistent person. He kept calling repeatedly until the annoying ringtone broke Ye Jie's daydreaming and made the smile to turn into a scowl. "What do you want, Jun?"

Ye Jun could feel the burning heat through the phone as if Ye Jie would love to burn him alive just with his words alone. 'Wrong timing?' He thought to himself. 'Who cares? I already walked into the tiger's den. Now, I can only walk ahead. There is no way back.' Ye Jun was resolute.

"Bro, I'm sick and still you're yelling at me? That's not fair." His voice was heartbreaking but his drama had no effect on Ye Jie.

"Get down to the business." Ye Jie enunciated each word slowly.

"Bro, I'm feeling hungry. Bring me something to eat." He demanded in a childlike tone.

"Ask NaNa to make you something." He replied in a bored way. He specifically left Qu NaNa at home with instructions just for Ye Jun.

"She's not here." Ye Jun replied calmly.

"Why? I asked her to stay with you. How can she leave like this?" Ye Jie was frowning at his brother's answer. It was not possible that the maid won't listen to him.

"I asked her to leave." Ye Jun replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Why?" Ye Jie was gnashing his teeth at this point.

"She was annoying me time after time. Second Young Master, are you feeling pain anywhere? Should I call the doctor? Should I inform Madam Ye? Or should I call Eldest young master? Would you like to eat something? Tell me what you want and I'll make it for you. And blah... blah... blah... I got tired of her hence I made her go away."

Ye Jie understood the situation instantly. Ye Jun turned into a child whenever he was sick. Well, he was usually a big baby but during his sickness period, he was worse. And he hated it when someone repeatedly asked him something. He was easily irritable.

"Jun, I'll bring something while coming back from the office. I'm really busy with this investment details that you didn't complete last night." His tone was leaning towards a bit of accusation paired with a brotherly scolding. For now, be a good brother and ask someone to bring something for you from the Ye Residence." Ye Jie was talking slowly without showing his anger just placate his big-baby brother.

"No. No. And definitely no." Ye Jun was as stubborn as he could be. "Forget it. I'll call sis-in-law." Ye Jie sat up straight at his words and raised his brow. "She'll definitely bring me food."

Ye Jie was completely in an alert mode now. "What do you want to eat my dear little brother?"

Ye Jun smiled smugly at his reply. From the morning antics, he deduced one thing, it was easy to manipulate his brother using sis-in-law. Even just her name was powerful enough. You're a life-saver sis-in-law.

"Go to a Korean restaurant and bring me some tteokbokki (Spicy Rice Cakes)." Ye Jun replied while trying to control his drool.

"Jun, you're sick. Avoid eating spicy food. I'll bring abalone congee for you. It'll be good for your health." Even though Ye Jun was annoying sometimes (always but we'll keep that a secret) but Ye Jie loved him a lot. And Ye Jun knew that very well that Ye Jie was helpless before him.

"I want it. I want it. I want it." Ye Jun's tantrum was tiring him out. Ye Jie rubbed his forehead and sighed.

"Fine." He gave into his brother's tantrums as expected of him making Ye Jun smile with pride.

Disconnecting the call, Ye Jie's gaze fell on the note laying on his office table. Each word was written delicately showing the emotions of the one who wrote it. Ye Jie smiled once again looking at it. He picked it up, folded it and kept it back in his inner pocket right over his heart and tapped it as if to assure himself that it is real.

He decided to reply in the same way she did. But for now, he needed his wife to miss him a bit like he was missing her flushed face and avoiding eyes.

To love or to not love? Ye Jie left that part on the destiny. After all, Life is a game only destiny knows how to play it.

He knew one thing; instead of falling in love, he was going to be in love this time. Falling in love is dangerous. You never know whether the other person is willing to catch you or not.

But...

Being in love is different.

It's a mystery. A mystery worth solving. A mystery that can turn into a fairytale if you just put the right amount of effort.

Because falling in love depends on luck. But the concoction of the right amount of efforts with the sincerest feelings makes the perfect kind of love.

They say, 'To live your dream, you'll have to sleep for the rest of your life." Maybe love is exactly like that dream that makes you want to sleep for the rest of your life willingly.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
XiaoMeeHee XiaoMeeHee

We as humans have a huge problem. Whenever something goes wrong, we blame it on destiny and when something turns out right, we take it as a fruit of our labor.

As the title of the chapter says: Life is a game, only destiny knows how to play.

We are just pawns in this game of life and destiny and the one playing with us is our own society.

I'm so overwhelmed by all of your sweet comments. I'm feeling mushy and fluffy all the time.

I don't know you all but let me say it I love you all
