After the teatime at the café, Yu Xin and Zi Hao went back to the empty classroom. While walking, Yu Xin's mind drifted.
'I no longer exist in their world as Shen Yu Xin.
The life that was left behind in a flash, a life that I wasn't prepared for.
If I didn't get rebirthed, I wouldn't even feel this way.
Did I get abandoned by life?
What did I do to deserve this?
Even my legs are short now.
I even felt as though I have forgotten something.
A part of my past, a part of my life, a part of me.'
Yu Xin's footsteps slowed down to a stop. Standing still, in a daze. Her eyes lose light, her smile turned indifference, her head tilted down. Wang Zi Hao who was walking a few steps in front of Yu Xin also stopped walking and turned back. Seeing Yu Xin's indifference to the world around her, he felt his heart straining in pain. He walks up to Yu Xin and gave her a hug and patted her head.
'I wonder what happened to her. Was she that upset because I took away her sugar? Please wake up from your subconscious.'
Yu Xin felt the world was against her, being thrown into a life she didn't ask for. Without being able to bid farewell to her previous life.
'Was my responsibility too much for me to hold?'
Yu Xin's tears were on the verge of falling, she felt Wang Zi Hao hugging her. She wiped her unfallen tears on his shirt and hugged back for support. 'When was the last time someone hugged me even not knowing what I am going through? Thank you, Zi Hao'.
The two hugged for a long time until the sun started to set, Yu Xin then patted Zi Hao to let her go. "Thank you! My brothers should be finishing soon. Let's go to the student council," said Yu Xin as she walks to the student council on the fifth floor. Wang Zi Hao followed her.
*knock* *knock*
"Yes," said a student who opened the door. "Little girl, are you here to look for someone?". The brothers who were packing their things, saw their little sister is at the door they grabbed their bag and hurried to the door. "Move," said the brothers. The student that opened the door moved aside and said "Don't tell me this is the rumored little sister that has been going around. Why didn't you introduce your little sister to me?".
The brothers and Wang Zi Hao step in front of Yu Xin blocking the student view. "Student president, don't you have things to do? Ever since you came late, my sister has had to wait for us. I will forgive you if you finish your work by today." Said Yu Xuan. "Just a short introduction, you never know I will be your brother-in-law in the future".
The brothers ignored the student council president and slammed the door in his face. "Yu Xin, remember to avoid people like him. Stay close to us." Said Yu Chen. Wang Zi Hao silently nodded. Yu Xin was clueless at their antics, 'Well it's better to listen to them since they have known each other for a while? I guess…'
The siblings were waiting for their father to pick them up, not long a black car drove towards them going about the roundabout. Wang Zi Hao bid farewell to Zhou Yu Xin and left shortly. The siblings boarded the car, and their father was waiting for them inside.
"Xin'er did you have fun today?" asked Daddy Zhou.
"Um! I even did well on the math test. Aren't I smart?" said Yu Xin as she pulls out the math test, she took today. "Of course…" said Daddy Zhou as he looks through the test paper. Surprised at the intelligence of his daughter, he hugged her and said "You are a genius! How did you do the paper?". Yu Xin paused and quickly came up with an answer "Actually when I was in the hospital, I took a look at my brother's textbook that he left behind".
Yu Xin felt sweat dripping down her face.
"Maybe we should have you take the primary school exam soon then you can start going to your brothers' school next year."
