"Li Xue, do you think this is going good?" Mia asked worriedly as she looked at Li Xue melting the chocolates steadily through the double boiling process. Her hands were working all at her professional limits, stirring the melted chocolate liquid so that it does not form any lumps in it.

"Why? Does this not look good?" Li Xue said as she looked around to search for something.

Mia looked at her and asked, "What? Do you need anything? Tell me, I will bring them here. That's the only help I could offer you, Li Xue. I am not a capable teammate to offer you any big help". She said, getting all disappointed in herself.

Li Xue pursed her lips at those words. She could already feel her guilt and disappointment from hours before but didn't think that cajoling her would be any good idea at the time. But now seeing her all so upset, she was sure that now this little girl needs a pat of love and affection on her head.
