Chapter 7

Yu Mo and Xiao Ying are sitting in the garden, looking at the maids who are taking care of the flowers.

"Xiao Ying," Yu Mo called."Tell me more about you."

"Why Gege wants to know?" Xiao Ying answered with little smile."My life is not that interesting... me and Gege also in different world."

"Not that different though... Well, maybe we are in different circumstances, but... we are same, as human."

Xiao Ying looks at Yu Mo and looks down,"I... had a little bit difficult life, Gege..." he started."My parents died when I was in young age... I lived at the street. No-one took me in and maybe it was me who don't want to live with people. I don't want to have feelings and don't want to lose anyone again. That hurts so much...

So, I walked down and I didn't know where to go, I just know that I have to live my life even in my hardest time and alone. But, I believe my parents are looking at me in the heaven. People said that when loved ones died, they always looking at you, from above or maybe they go down to accompany you and when you keep them in your heart, memories remained and you will feel warm..."

Yu Mo keeps focusing how Xiao Ying talks and how he still managed to smile. Yu Mo knows that this kid will insisting to leave and Yu Mo starts to think to how he can helps this child. Yu Mo suddenly snapped out of his thinking when Xiao Ying tugging his shirt.

"Yu Mo Gege, I think I will leave after this."

"Why do you keep insisting to leave?"

"Gege, I don't want to look like I'm using you... to wear clean clothes, to have foods..." Xiao Ying answered."...We are strangers after all..."

Yu Mo stands up and says,"Strangers? I don't think so. I already help you and now, it's your turn to do a favor."

"What did Gege mean by a favor?"

"I'm going to be very busy after this and seldom at home. My Grandma is alone and I know she needs accompany. So, can you help me accompany my Grandma?"

Before Xiao Ying can reply, Yu Mo continues,

"Of course, I will give you salary. And if you don't want money, you can stay here because I need someone who can accompany Grandma everyday."

"But..."

Yu Mo pats Xiao Ying's head.

"This is the only way for you to properly live, Xiao Ying." Yu Mo smiled."Maybe your parents want us to meet after all. Because they wanted me to help their child."
