Where this phone call left Ye Jie in a euphoria, Xu Mey was in an intense predicament. It was an undeniable fact that Xu Mey cared about Ye Jun just because he was Ye Jie's only brother. She wasn't the kind of person to run from her responsibilities and taking care of her husband's family was also a responsibility she couldn't just shake off.
Her predicament at the moment was that she felt bad about saying no to Ye Jie for dinner. Even though she promised to go tomorrow but no one might ever know the difference between going today and tomorrow better than her.
The time she asked her father to accompany her to school, he said, "Little Mey, I'll go with you tomorrow. Today, Daddy has an important meeting." He left his 6-year-old daughter with that 'important meeting' excuse once again.
Xu Mey was downhearted. It was the annual function at her school that day. There was a huge difference in going today and tomorrow. The worst part was; that tomorrow never came for her.
