"Goodnight." He smiled and ruffled her hair in his usual fun manner.
Sara smiled back and stretched, trying to ruffle his also but he laughed and moved back from her touch.
"It's not fair" She pouted. "You get to do it but I can't?"
He looked at her in amusement before bending to meet her height. "Alright. I'll give you 3 seconds to feel my perfect hair"
Sara smiled happily. But instead of his hair, she poked at his dimple. She had always wanted to feel it. Hallelujah!
"Are you indirectly sending me a message?" He asked with a wink.
She laughed. Understanding what he meant and turned to leave but he pulled her back.
"You should say 'goodnight' properly."
She rolled her eyes before she brazenly stood on her toes and kissed his cheek. "Goodnight Mr Li."

Sara laughed and hugged her hippo when she remembered it.
"You must love him a lot" Cixi commented.
