"...Yes", she whispered.

"...I see."

Lu Xun let out a deep sigh as he looked towards the ocean line. He could no longer hear the singing of the birds, and the only thing that entered his ears were the cold waters crashing to the port. The ocean breeze that felt so comfortable was now chilling.

And so, Lu Xun let out another breath as started to walk away. But before he could take even a single step, Diao Mei opened her mouth.

"I like him… but only as a friend", Diao Mei let out a deep breath as she closed her eyes, "Viel… is a precious friend, you see"

A smile then appeared on Diao Mei's face as she opened her eyes. True, back when she was a child, all she could think of was how she could be with Viel. It was sort of a crush, in a way. She was young, and her mind clung to the very first person that awed her.
