Mu Yuhaan went there with his signature muted footsteps, picked up the coffee mug from the table, then took a sip from it.
However, after the first sip, he paused momentarily, as it was not his regular type of bitter coffee. He could tell empirically that the coffee had been made with sugar and milk, and the proportion was just to the point; it was not bitter but not too sweet either.
To Mu Yuhaan's surprise, he liked this flavour of coffee. It had a nice aroma emitting from it. He took his sweet time enjoying the coffee, then, put the mug back on the table just like it was before.
After it seemed like two or three so minutes, Mian got up lazily, and meandered towards the round table. Without looking inside, she took a sip from the mug, however, only air entered her mouth.
It shocked her into silence for a few seconds. By the moment, Mian resurfaced again, she inspected the empty terrace more closely and threw some questions in the air, "Who is here? Who drank my coffee? Is anyone here?"
The entire right side of the terrace was converted into a lawn, and surrounding it, there were many flowers' pot hanging from the railing, creating a beautiful yet somewhat ghostly shadow on the lonely night.
Mu Yuhaan, who was seated in a rattan wicker weaving sling rope sofa on the lawn, had an impulse to make an appearance, and let Mian confront him. However, just as he stood up, Mian ran away.
"Did she believe in phantom, wraith or what?"
Staring at Mian's fleeting back, an other-worldly beautiful, yet manly sound of laughter, which was unprecedented, broke out from Mu Yuhaan's lips.
It might sound cliché, but even the Greek God of laughter, Gelos, would have a wish to emulate the sound.

Sunday morning, although the sky was sunless, it wasn't shadowy, befogged overcast day. Or perhaps, the maple trees in the garden raised the spirits of even the cold, and gloomy day. Because, out of the blue, It started raining. Heavy raindrops were hitting on the window panel producing rhythmic sounds.
Mu Yuhaan, who was perusing some important documents, sitting on the couch in his bedroom, lifted his gaze from the document on his hand, and glanced towards the outside.
As his concentration was interrupted, he frowned slightly, and got up to close the balcony's door to prevent his room from getting drenched.
Nonetheless, before he could close the door, his eyes fell on someone, and instantly got locked there.
The girl stood there turning her back towards him. Clad in a pink floral knee-length dress, she was playing with the rain drops and giggling. Mu Yuhaan could distinguish the cheerfulness and supreme blessedness in her laughter, and his heart coudn't help but warmed up.
Her waist-length black silky hair was swaying with the breeze. The transparent raindrops looked purer than Puerto Williams in Santiago Chile's water in her pink supple palm, and it provoked Mu Yuhaan's desire to quench his thirst by drinking the rain water from there. Albeit, the water on her palms was little to nothing, for him, seemed like it could satisfy him for thousands of years.
Mu Yuhaan was so spellbound by the scene that he didn't even realize when his feet brought him to her; extending his hand, he grabbed her shoulder, and made her turn towards him, with the intention of seeing her face.
When the girl looked at him, she smiled gently.
"So beautiful.." Mu Yuhaan hissed under his breath, and his irish enlarged in size in wonderment.
The girl had a pair of dark brown big eyes. The firmness, mettle and the brilliance behind them, made them dazzlingly beautiful, and these eyes had the capability to captivate him for hours after hours. Being paired with long, black, trimmed eyebrows, perfected them even more, giving off an engrossing vibe.
Subsequently, Mu Yuhaan's gaze moved slightly downwards, where stood a sharp and small nose; under her nose was, a pair of medium sized pouty pink lips. The most attractive part of her lips was 'A black mole' on her lower lip.
Mu Yuhaan had the itch to suck her lower lip immediately. However, before waiting for him to kiss her, she shyly wrapped her hands around his waist and buried her head in his chest with a sweet smile.
Mu Yuhaan paused for a second, then hugged her back. As she was one head shorter than him, he rested his chin on top of her head. There were indescribable feelings-happiness, peace and sense of security in that hug.
Mu Yuhaan was surprised at this discovery; it had been unexplored and untold to him that hugging someone could give him this type of feeling.
However, why couldn't he smell her unique scent?!
Mu Yuhaan furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance, as he tried repeatedly to smell that heavenly scent of Mian. Nevertheless, instead of hers, he smelled of something familiar, which made him open his eyes slowly.
As Mu Yuhaan just woke up from his slumber, he was dazed for a second; before becoming completely flummoxed, when he saw, he was hugging his hug pillow, not Mian!
"So it was a dream." Mu Yuhaan murmured, a trace of disappointment lacing in his voice. "However, it was a very sweet dream." Unbeknownst to him, his lips broke into a genuine smile.
This was the first time in Mu Yuhaan's entire life to have had a dream of a girl. He couldn't help replaying the entire dream in his head, and unwittingly grinning foolishly reminiscing it.
Mian smiled at him, and hugged him burying her head in his chest!
A few seconds later, he took his cellphone from the bedside table and checked the time, it showed 5 O'clock in the morning.
"People say morning's dream comes true." Mu Yuhaan said to himself, then became more happy. He tossed and turned in the bed for a few more minutes, however, couldn't fall asleep anymore.
Mu Yuhaan was aware, this excitement wouldn't let him fall asleep right now, hence, decided to get up. Brushing his teeth, he headed towards the kitchen. The Javabot coffee machine instantaneously ground and brewed him a good and freshest cup of coffee.
