Xiu suddenly held her hands and push her a little to stand up. It scared the hell out of Nora as she watched Xiu walking away from her. Was she really going to leave? Nora's heart clenched in her chest. It was more than just painful seeing Xiu turning her back on her. Her silence was killing her. Nora couldn't take this. Her soul felt like leaving her body.
But she didn't even have the courage to hold Xiu back. Or even call her back.
'I guess I really messed this one up...' she thought to herself bitterly with a fresh stream of hot tears rolling down her cheeks.
Despodendantly, hopelessly, and sorrowfully Nora covered her face with her hands.
Suddenly, she felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up.
Her brows creased up. Her vision was blurry because of tears, she rubbed her eyes and looked at Xiu again.
