Xu Zhuya took long steps and within few minutes she reached the couple. She looked at them once again closely and to her surprise it was really them....Her Childhood Friends.
Both Su Wan and Song Jung were panting from their intense kiss. It was like a kiss they never had before. It had ignited fires in them. Song Jung took a strand of her hair in his hand and smiled "I Love You beautiful..." Su Wan intertwined her hand with his and replied back "I Love You too handsome..." They touched their foreheads and looked into each others eyes deeply with intense love and happiness.
Xu Zhuya was looking at them both since she arrived there. She really loved it. They were the same like before. For Xu Zhuya, everything Su Wan and Song Jung told was the same like their childhood. In their childhood also they used to say words like this and do acts of this kind but they had never kissed. Now that Xu Zhuya saw them kiss, she was really happy for the both of them.
Xu Zhuya hurriedly went and tapped on both Su Wan's and Song Jung's shoulders with her hands. They both turned and looked at her with a questioning look. Xu Zhuya looked at them and gave a huge hug and said "I really missed you guys. You guys are still the same like before."
She gave a huge smile and before she could say something tears started flowing down through her cheeks. She hurriedly wiped them off and waited for their reply.
Su Wan and Song Jung both had shocked expressions but slowly, slowly that expression faded and they widened their eyes and yelled "Xu Zhuya... It's you?" They really weren't able to believe that their childhood friend Xu Zhuya was standing in front of them and had even hugged them.
Xu Zhuya nodded.
Xu Zhuya had thought that Su Wan would hug her back first but she was wrong. Both Su Wan and Song Jung hugged her back. They held her tightly and said "We really missed you Xu Zhuya..." They also even started crying but those were the tears of joy.
Xu Zhuya slightly pushed them back "Ahh guys... You will suffocate me here. Hug one by one, eh?"
"How can we hug you one by one? Do you think I'll wait when Song Jung is hugging you or do you think Song Jung will wait when I'm hugging you, huh?" Su Wan said it while hitting her lightly on her back.
"We are really glad to see you Xu Zhuya." It was Song Jung who had spoken this time.
He continued "It really has been long. You changed a lot and I would say you became quite a beauty. Owww..." Su Wan had pinched him and he was pouting his face while rubbing the place where she had pinched "Babe... I was just saying.... You are always beautiful than her." Song Jung said it while kissing Su Wan on her cheeks.
Xu Zhuya felt like a third wheel and said "Ahh! Guys! C'mon.. Don't feed me dog food. I'm your friend here who came after a long time and that's what you guys do, huh? Kiss one another? At least warn me when you guys are doing that, alright?"
To be honest they were like this in their childhood too. Always doing stuffs in front of everyone. They never minded it. Why? Cause they were kids back then. But now?
Well Xu Zhuya had assumed things had changed but no... they were still the same. They were doing everything in public. Xu Zhuya laughed a little and started daydreaming about the day when they all separated.
*****
The Childhood Memory.
A fifteen-year old Xu Zhuya was standing at the entrance of the door waving to her friends Su Wan and Song Jung. It was their last day here in Country X. All three of them were in tears. Both Su Wan and Song Jung were 3 years younger than Xu Zhuya but they all had deep understandings in between them.
They used to share food, talk to each other, visit one another, and mostly they studied together and even played together. But today was the day when all three of them were getting separated. Su Wan and Song Jung had come to meet Xu Zhuya for the last time.
Xu Zhuya asked while crying "Do you...huff.... guys...huff... really have to go.....hufff??" She wiped those tears which left her eyes and waited for them to say..
Although Su Wan and Song Jung were younger than her, they both treated her like their younger sister and they acted like they understood her and Xu Zhuya obeyed them like their elders, listening to all that they would say and pay respect to them.
Song Jung wiped away Xu Zhuya's falling tears and said "Hey! Don't worry beautiful... We won't be gone for long. It's for a short time. Just when we all grow up, we will meet back soon. We really can't stay away from you Xu Zhuya...
You should know that we will come back real soon. It's just the matter of growing up." Su Wan continued along with Song Jung "Yeah! No matter what, we will see each other soon and yeah, we will miss you Xu Zhuya."
Meanwhile, when they were talking the driver honked and so they hugged her one last time and left. That day was the beginning of Xu Zhuya's lonely and single life. She bid them goodbye and wiped her tears and went inside the house.
