Feelings

"Wang Yue…What are you doing here?"

Wang Yue's whole body shivered under the touch of Xiao Muchen's warm hand on her back and she held onto his shirt on his chest to hold on for her dear life. Her both hands then gripped his shirt tightly and put her whole balance on him.

As she looked back, their eyes locked and she once again saw the unrestrained emotion in his hazel eyes. The faint aroma of the sandalwood filled her lungs making her heart run like crazy again.

"I knocked on the door for a long time and when you didn't answer me back, I came inside and saw you crying. What happened, Princess? Are you not okay? Did someone say something? Has Aunty Su said something…"

The desperation to make everything correct for her was clear in his eyes and Wang Yue was happy to see that but still got confused as to what just went wrong that he was thinking like that.

"No. Why are you thinking like that, Xiao Muchen? I…I am perfectly all right. No one said anything and Aunty Su is the sweetest lady on this earth. Why will she say anything to me?"

Promptly his left hand went to wipe away the tears rolled from her eyes and she felt the wetness on her cheeks. 

"Then why are you crying, Princess? I saw you almost on the verge of falling off the gallery right now. You were so immersed in your thoughts that you weren't paying any attention to yourself. Are you still worried about Ai? I told you not to worry."

His worries weren't without a reason. She was crying standing very near to the railing and it was a possibility that an accident could have happened. 

Her hand loosened the grip on his shirt and reached her left cheek. She looked at her wet palm which shocked her thoroughly.

"I was crying? I…I was thinking about my life…But it wasn't…I wasn't…"

Wang Yue tried to speak but no matter what she wasn't able to form a single sentence that could make meaning to Xiao Muchen. But then he cupped her face again and stopped her from speaking.   

"Are you missing someone?"

Xiao Muchen understood her heart so unexpectedly but correctly that she froze at her spot. She looked up at his face and tried to read his mind but she failed.

"Xiao Muchen, you…"

"MAMA…..MAMAAAA."

As she tried to ask Xiao Muchen about it they heard a loud voice of a little girl and they immediately understood what must have happened.  

"Ai Ai…"

Both ran out of the room as fast as they could and when they both reached Ai Smith's room, a crystal glass came their way so fast that Wang Yue wasn't even able to move out of its way. She just stood there pulling her both hands to protect her head, waiting for the pain to come into her arms. 

But that pain never came to her and she heard a wince and the breaking of the glass on the floor. She opened her eyes just to see what happened when she saw Xiao Muchen's face so close to her. Then she realised what just happened.

When Xiao Muchen saw Ai Smith throwing the glass in their direction, he looked back at Wang Yue coming behind him and he turned around to hide Wang Yue with his body so that that glass could not hit her.

"Ahh Xiao Muchen, what have you done? Are you okay?"

She put her hands on his shoulders and turned him to check on his back but before that, they heard one more sound of the loud crashing of another crystal and they gave their attention to the girl on the bed.

"Ai Ai, stop breaking things. Listen to me, I am here with you."

Wang Yue almost ran toward her and stepped on the bed. She hugged the crying girl tightly and started to make smooth circles on Ai Smith's back to calm her down. 

"Yue Jiejie, Mama…Where is mama…? I want my Mama." 

"Don't cry, Ai Ai. Your Mama is coming. Don't worry." 

Wang Yue tried to make her relax but she remembered the thing that happened at the airport and started to cry out loudly. 

"No, No, Yue Jiejie, Mama…They took Mama with them. They forced her to leave my hand…Mama…Mama…I want my Mama." 

Ai Smith cried even harder when all the incidents came to her again but then someone's voice took her out of her desperate wailing. 

"She is coming, Ai Ai. She is coming. Don't cry. She just went to cook something for you. She is coming as soon as she will cook it." 

Xiao Muchen came near them and sat on the other side of the bed. 

"Your Mama was saying that you like Banana pancakes with honey the most. She said if you will get up early then the first thing you will ask is to get your Banana pancake. So, she is cooking it. You have to wait for five more minutes." 

He assured her and took the glass in his hand which had medicine mixed in it. Wang Yue got stunned when she heard what Xiao Muchen said. She knew he wouldn't lie. 

"But what are you doing here, Bad uncle? Have you kidnapped all of us because I threatened you on a plane? Are you taking revenge on me?" 

Wang Yue and Xiao Muchen's eyes almost popped up from their sockets when they heard her. They looked at her in disbelief and then their gazes met for a brief second. 

"Is she for real? How can she speak like this with us? How big a brain does she have?" 

Both thought the same at the same time but then Ai Smith tugged on Wang Yue's sleeves. 

"I want to go to Mama…I don't want to wait for Mama here, I don't trust this bad uncle. I want Mama." 

She cried and Wang Yue took her into her arms glancing at Xiao Muchen and asking him what to do with her hand gestures. But before he could give her an answer his phone started to ring and he took it without wasting a second. She looked at his disappearing silhouette and took Ai Smith in front of her. 

"We will get your Mama, as fast as possible. Please don't cry anymore." 

"MAMA…" 

A loud whimper came out of Ai Smith's mouth and Wang Yue shivered hard.
