Bab 4: Memories

A small guy around 12 years old was sitting on the bench reading a book. He was dressed in a white shirt, black pants. Suddenly lifting his head he saw around the park where many children's were playing, some were playing sea saw, girls were playing on swing and rest were playing with toys. Everyone was happy, laughing happily. Some were with their parents, some with grandparents, some were with their elder siblings. Most of them were with their parents but he was the only one who was sitting lonely in the park. Letting out a sigh, he buried himself in the book again.

Keeping his hands on the ears he murmured while irritation was clearly visible on his face" Its so noisy here, what is the need to shout while playing. And all those ladies, am I a cartoon character to keep staring at me"

As he was ranting, he noticed a small figure was trying to come up on the bench. But due to her small height, even after trying for 3 times she was unable to do so.

The girl had her chest pressed on the bench while both of her elbows were on the bench. One of the led was firm on the ground, while another one was going between the ground and bench to help her climb.

Her eyes seemed to be blurred, trying to get up on the bench. After resting for some more time, she wiped the tears in the eyes and started climbing again.

She was very cute, slightly chubby girl. She wore a pink frock with a red lace at the bottom. Her pony tail was tied with a hairband having rose and even her shoes had rose pattern on the front.

Looking at her anyone could understand she either liked rose or liked pink color. The boy got down from his place, went behind the girl and holding her legs helped her to sit on the bench. Noticing that she was able to sit on the bench the girls eyes curved into a crescent shape and smiling happily she clapped her hands saying thankyou to the one who helped her.

As if her smile was infectious, the boy curved his lips mildly and then went back to his place and started reading.

Opening his eyes all Qing Shan could see was an empty bench and darkness.

Letting out sigh he thought,'I will definetily fulfill our promise rose'
