Mu Lan was walking on a dark road. She didn't know where she was going but she kept telling herself that if she went forward she would see the light.
She walked down through the endless darkness and as she predicted, after some time she found a tiny light, coming from outside. She almost ran there.
She found a heavy wooden door in front of her. It didn't have a lock so she felt happy. However, when she pulled the door, she couldn't move it an inch. She tried again and again. She tried till she was out of breath. But all her efforts were in vain.
She started praying for help. She wished that there was someone who could help her to see the light of life.
As she prayed, she felt someone touch her right hand which was holding the handle of the door. She observed that the hand was bigger, warmer and stronger. She felt at ease by the hand's touch.
Together, both of them pulled the door and finally the door opened. Mu Lan saw a beautiful scenery in front her. It was a forest with big trees and unknown flowers. She was in awe seeing such attractive nature.
She saw a blue butterfly flying and suddenly it sat on her nose. A few seconds later it flew away behind her. At that moment, she remembered the hand that helped her. Quickly she looked behind her but couldn't see anyone. Even the darkness had disappeared. She felt confused but as she looked at the forest, she decided to walk towards it.
After walking what felt like miles, she saw hundreds of cherry trees, in the soft breeze, the flowers were falling from the trees. It was so gorgeous that Mu Lan was mesmerized by it.
She was enjoying the view when she noticed a lonely figure under a cherry tree. She walked closer. Maybe due to hearing her footsteps, that figure turned around.
Mu Lan stopped in her track. She saw a handsome man staring at her coldly. That man looked quite familiar but she couldn't remember no matter how many times she searched in her memory.
That man had a grand aura around him. Anyone who looked at him would want to kneel down in front of him. He was 6'1" tall, pale skin, black hair, brown eyes, sharp nose, and last of all alluring thin pale lips.
Mu Lan had never felt more attracted to anyone before. The thing which caught her eyes the most was his brown eyes. They were cold, distant and lonely.
Mu Lan stared at him without blinking.
