For A Girl

They two looked at each other in silence. The awkward moment was broken when they subconsciously chuckled at their behavior. Ming Yue Yin looked down as she laughed lightly. Her laughter was clear and crisp like a small bell. Yuan Shao's heart turned to mush as he covered his mouth with his fist and laughed. It took her a while to calm herself.

"I… I'm glad you are not yet asleep," Yuan Shao's smile widened as he moved closer to her. It was the first time he felt nervous yet he had once faced a thousand enemy soldiers with only five hundred soldiers on his sides.

"You know I tend to sleep late…" Ming Yue Yin shrugged.

"I know…" He nodded and became silent. He struggled to find the right words to explain himself.

"You are going to leave tonight?" She asked.

"Yes…" He replied easily.

"Have you talked to Xue An?" She asked.
