Yuen signed with relief as we reached home, and I couldn't help but feel a thrill when I remember the moment  I touched his hand chain with my fingers following that, I went to bed without speaking with her about the incident. As a result of my exhaustion, I fell asleep immediately. When yuen saw that I was fast asleep

she thought to herself "finally, some peace and quiet!".

*****

At the same time Yeon left Qiao at home without saying a word to him and went somewhere else.

Qiao muttered -"Yeonnn.... where the hell are you going at his hour?!

Qiao's voice grew louder, expressing his concern and confusion as to why Yeon would leave so suddenly.

QIAO'S POV:

I was unware of when yeon had arrived home,but upon awakening,I noticed that he was sleeping on the other side of the bed,still wearing  the clothes from the day.Before even without changing shoes. Despite wanting to wake him up, I refrained as he appeared to be exhausted,

END OF QIAO'S POV:

YUEN'S POV:

In the morning, I woke up to the sound of the alarm on my phone. I turned off the alarm, looked for the time, and it showed 9 am. However, when I woke up, I didn't see Aera by my side. I just freshened up, then looked for her where she was sitting
in the balcony while listening to music and dreaming. Without hesitation, I opened the door, walked out to the balcony and hugged her tightly.

END OF YUEN'S POV

"oh... you woke up, I thought you wouldn't"

yuen suddenly said, "Whats on your mind? Are u thinking about yesterday's incident...
uh?"

upon hearing that, I was wondering how the hell she understood.

"No.... no....I was just thinking randomly. Just get the coffee from the kitchen."

"come on Aera...do u think I won't get it?your behaviour totally changed after the handshake!?"

The sudden change in my demeanor has made Yuen suspicious.
-"why did that handshake have such an effect on you?

I stuttered and replied -"Uh,. it was just a really firm handshake?"
I tried to brush it  off but she wasn't convinced

she looked into my eyes and asked, "what was it really?"

As yuen asked many questions,I couldn't resist answering the truth. As I told yuen how I felt, she gave me a look like I was crazy & said -
"what are you talking about, YOU NUTS?"

I shrugged & replied - "I guess I'm just a little nutty!!

Yuen asked with concern - "ya... what changed after shifting here... probably changed a little & even started fighting!

"I do have everything but still feel like
something is missing,"added, "It's like I'm searching for something, but I'm not sure what, "I added sadly,

"Maybe you just need a hug?" - Yuen said and gave me a big bear hug.
