A New Beginning

" Does that crybaby wants to abdicate his throne again?" Chenglei asked casually trying to control his thoughts going negative yet his shaking voice expressed his fear.

It should not be what I think! My little brother is fine!

Ah Xuan shook his head in the negative and went on hugging Chenglei," Uncle, father is gravely sick, " his mumbled voice made Xing's heart skip a beat.

"Why weren't we informed?" Xing was the one who asked as Chenglei was standing frozen. She was mad that guy was acting like a little child again.

'Gravely ill? How? He is younger than me... ' Chenglei couldn't accept it.

"Aunty Xing," Ah Xuan gulped as he couldn't contain his sorrow, " Father made me promise not to inform you. It was just a cold first and so I thought he'd get better but it only got worse and now..., " he teared up.

Xing stood up and looked at Chenglei who looked shook. Holding Chenglei's hand, she walked out, towards the mountains and Ah Xuan ran behind her.
