"Apprentice brother, why did you tie a knot on this ribbon of yours, when you talked about your brother," she curiously asked.
Henan came on the water source with the other disciple and they were talking this and that.
Shishi talked about his elder brother that he was caring, and tied a knot on the ribbon around his waist.
She saw him doing so and asked out of habit.
After thinking for some time, Shishi spoke, "This knot will make me remember that someone I have to go back for and meet him, like if I send someone dear one or love one away, I would kiss or hug to remind that person that I will be waiting for you, vise versa," initially he started to explain like a philosopher and then lost track to see her innocent looks and she was thinking something deeply.
Shishi wished strongly, that it was him.
They came back from water source.
Henan kept pacing in her dorm to think clearly.
