Huo walked out of the castle wandering around for sometimes and found himself already down the path of the river that leads to the heaven's border. He took the way and wished to spend some time in that tree hut fon the river banks he hadn't been to for over months. Memories gushed inside and he couldn't push then away. His heart thumbed louder and made him feel weak. He wished he remembered nothing. The hideout that meant too much in life. Those rendezvous with someone ripped his heart out to think of it now.
He looked around and washed his face sprinkling some water from the river. He felt peaceful then.
"What are you doing here?" she asked him standing inside the tree hut, her arms folded.
"I," he stuttered. "I was just passing by," he said looking up at her. For some reasons, he didn't have the courage to look into her eyes. He avoided and looked away.
"Don't again," she warned him.
"What?"
'I said don't come here again," she repeated.
