Xing Han was sitting there, crossing his arms as he stared at the stage, ignoring everything and everyone around him. He looked unperturbed, as if he was bored waiting for the 'show' to begin.
This was completely unlike how he had been when Kyle first left.
He had been a total emotional wreck, despite him swearing that he would be strong. It was so much harder than he thought it would be. True to his word, Kyle went off the grid completely after he left. He did not keep in touch at all except for the occasional very short email once in a while.
The sudden silence had eaten up at Xing Han and initially, he had a lot of trouble coping. He felt like such a fool yet no one made fun of him.
Most surprisingly, the one that had been the kindest and greatest help to him was Nitocris.
First, apologies again. For those who are unaware, the previous chapter was wrongly uploaded. It was the old version and not the longer, edited version. The correct version was uploaded at 2pm (+8GMT).
