Monday
Hou Yi and Anna awoke suddenly to lots of noise throughout the Hou Ancestral Home. Hou Yi looked at an alarm clock and realised that it was only 4:30am and to both of them it sounded like everyone had just arrived back. Anna, also then noticed that at that exact moment she was, the best that could be arranged given the cast on her leg, she was wrapped in Hou Yi's arms and how right it felt.
Anna paused for a few seconds before moving too much, just savouring the feeling of being safe and how right it was to be here. It was getting so much harder and harder not to tell Hou Yi how she felt about him. The only thing holding her back was she had observed nothing from Hou Yi significant despite some glimpses that potentially indicated he loved her as she loved him.
