He found her.
Ling Feng dropped down to his knees as he wept releasing another flood of tear. He had felt like he had been carrying a weight on his shoulders that was all of suddenly lifted.
In a whisper between tears he muttered,"Thank you God. She's alive. She's really alive", soon he burst out all the pain in his heart.
"She's alive. I knew you were alive", he continued weeping until he had nothing left in him.
Then he let his body collapse on the floor landing on the warm hardwood. He shut his eyes in relief surrendering to all the emotions that had been boiling up for the past three years. Everything he had been suppressing.
After letting it all go he felt like a baby being cradled in the arms of hope. His heart was tightened but for the first time the was a light showing him a path to go.
