At The Airport
Swe Yi looked at Sophie while they were at the queue. She seemed to cry soon. But he pretended not to being known about it.
He suddenly grabbed her hand and held it tightly. Sophie looked up him. But she didn't say anything. She couldn't cover her emotions and she finally cried. The tears couldn't help stopping. It continued flowing like a stream. People around her looked at her strangely. Some were talking meaningless gossips. This time he couldn't ignore her. He drew her hand. Because of intense force of his draw, Sophie accidently reached into his embrace. That's what Swe Yi wanted to happen. He accomodately hugged her. He patted her head to comfort her.
Girls around him got jealous of Sophie.
He asked gently "Why are you crying? We haven't left yet. Are you gonna missing your family now?"
Sophie replied with tears still flowing on her face " Yes. I have never been away with my family. I knew that I will happen like this. I don't want them to see me like this. That's why I didn't let them to come the airport."
Swe Yi felt sad for her. And said " If you want something, you have to lose another thing. But don't worry I'll ever stand by you." He smiled at her.
With his words, she felt little well. She kept on hiding her face in his embrace. It took little time. Then when she finished her crying, she wiped her residue tears on her face and released from him.
"Are you fine now?" He asked.
She just nodded. She looked at his shirt. It was wet because of her tears. She felt sorry for his shirt.
Swe Yi noticed it and said " It's ok. It will be dry soon. "
She giggled.
"Why are you giggling?" He asked with suprise.
"Nothing" she replied and kept giggling.
"Let's go. The flight is going to depart soon." He said and went into the aeroplane holding her hand.
They took seats and after a few minutes it departed flighted to A City.
While Swe Yi was reading a book, he heard a sound like something was bouncing something.
He looked at his beside. It was Sophie. She was falling asleep and her head was bouncing the window. He giggled looking at her. Then he softly touched her chin and let her head rely on his shoulder. Then he kept on reading his book.

"What kind of beautiful place it is!" Sophie said.
"Wait a minute. I was on the airplane. Is it A City?" She was thinking in her mind.
"How could it be? I heard that A City is amazing. It should have high buildings and shopping malls. I don't see any high buildings. There are no cars. This place is like ancient place. Whatever I should look around."
She was in the greenland. Whenever she watched she only saw big trees and green grass. Suddenly she saw a path covering with flower.
"Who made it? It was so lovely. " She thought.
Then, she kept on walking on that path. It was long. Finally she reached the end of the path. At the end, she found herself standing at the edge of the cliff. She felt frightened. Then she looked forward and saw a beautiful kingdom. It was lovely. Under the blue sky, it was so beautiful. Suddenly, the black wind turned around that kingdom and she couldn't see it anymore. And then that black wind reached behind her and pushed her. She fell down from the edge of the cliff. She shouted loudly.She closed her eyes because she didn't want to see what was at the base of the cliff. She knew sooner or later she would die. 1 She thought her body was flying in the air. Because of shouting, even her throat got hurt.
" Am I going to die like this?" She thought in her mind.
Then she felt someone was calling her.

While Swe Yi was reading a book, he felt Sophie's body was shaking. And she seemed pale. She was sweating too much and she was closing her eyes tightly. Then he was worried about her and waking her up by calling her name.
She opened her eyes slowly. She just saw the intense light. It entered her sight.
She heard calling her name.
"Sophie! " " Sophie !" Swe Yi was calling her worriedly.
"Did I die? Where am I?" Sophie asked.
"Why would you die? We're in the airplane." Swe Yi replied.
" Is it you? Swe Yi?" Sophie asked. She seemed she was weak.
"Yes, it's me" He replied.
Then she suddenly hugged him tightly. Then she cried.
" What happened Sophie?" He felt worried for her.
She didn't answer him. She kept on crying.
Then he didn't ask her anymore and comforted her. When he thought her situation was stable, he asked her again.
Sophie released him a little but she was still hugging him.
Sophie said " I thought I died."
"Why would you die Sophie?" He asked gently.
"I'm here with you." He added.
"I fell down from the edge of the cliff" she said frightenedly.
" It was just a bad dream. Don't think about it. I'm always with you. Don't be afraid" He patted her back.
She nodded but he could feel that she was frightened.
A few minutes later, it announced that the airplane would land soon.
"Sophie. It will land soon. You'll see how beautiful A City is." Swe Yi said happily.
But Sophie just nodded. In her mind, she was thinking about her dream.
