Location: S city

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*

"Ugh!! Okay, I am up! I am up!"

*Sigh* "Did I sleep here while reading the diary? I didn't even clean the dishes last night nor brush my teeth..." Yang Feng said as he stood up and went towards the bathroom before the morning breath made him sleep again.

.

(Tiling!)

A text from Ling appeared on his phone screen.

Feng: No worries, I will send it to you by tomorrow.

.

Ling: Change of plan, let's meet at the exist of S city! The time you chosse~ ( Sorry that I keep changing the plan but I have my reason )

.

Feng: It's fine then let's meet around noon. Shall we?

.

"She must be having a hard time all by herself and also moving to another country....was she this responsible before?" He talked with himself as he offered himself a cup of black coffee.

"Nah she was always the rebel and angry type....and if not for Ning she might have long been suspended from school," He said as he took the toast in his hands and chuckled.

.

' According to the information we have got today! Two stars in the sky are about to collide for the first time in history and this colliding may lead to the formation of a Colourful Nova which was never been seen before!! And if things well today we all will be able to see the magic of the universe.' The news reporter on the TV screen said as Feng ate his breakfast peacefully not paying attention to the TV.

.

"Nova...Hmm, this news has been playing for the last few months but nothing has happened. Are they baffling? Even in this era?" He said as he looked at the pet dog he has.

.

"Lulu~ I am going out today again. Can you take care of yourself?' Feng asked as he petted him.

"woof!!" Lulu barked as she sat down politely.

"Good girl then I will leave after making you some food okay!"

"woof! woof!"

"Now look at you being all happy~," Feng said as he giggled.

"Kai, Are you ready?"

"Yes, Maama I am but why are we going to S city again?"

"That's because your father wants to have some talk with us....or particularly me!" Ling said as she slammed the car door.

"Mom you will break the door again~"

"Don't worry I won't and now then let's go and meet your FATHER for the last time!" She said as she clenched her teeth with an annoying smile.

"Yeah let's go..." Kai said as his mood got darker.

"Hello, I would like to buy these flowers," Ming said as he held into a bunch of lilies.

"Sure here you go, young man. White lilies must be for a special person." The old lady of the shop said as she handed him the lilies in a bouquet.

"Yeah...it is for my late sister...I hope with this she might forgive me a bit..."

"Young Man forgiveness isn't so easy to give and also tough to get...but today is a special day and I can see it in your eyes...the time is about to change." The old lady said as she smiled and turns around giving goosebumps to Ming.

"I hope my time changes just like you said and as for forgiveness... it's fine if she doesn't forgive me after all what I did was a sin...anyway thanks."

Saying that he left the store and walked along the pavement.

"Now then young man good luck. And here comes another the one who will change everything." That old lady said as Feng approached the shop.

"Hello, I want to buy some flowers," Feng said as he walked into the store looking around.

"Hoho today my shop is being visited by a lot of handsome customers. A young man just left buying lilies for his late sister with a remorseful heart. I wonder what you would like to buy?"

"Oh, I see...I too would like a bunch of lilies..."

"Just lilies out of so many flowers here?"

"Yes since I am visiting someone's grave today."

"I see but lilies are not the only flower given to a dead person you know...." Saying that she started working on the lilies.

"I see...then (Looks around) how about you mix some of the red roses with it."

"Roses and Lilies are a good choice. I bet that person will like it a lot."

"Ahh, yes she might...like it.."

As soon as Feng said that line the image of Ning smiling while looking at the flowers flashed into his mind.

"What the---" Feng said as he shook his head.

"Young Man, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing I just kind of remembered something..."

"Is it about the person you are buying these flowers for?"

"Yes, it is.."

"Don't worry you must just be feeling nostalgia. visiting the grave of the person who once existed in your life, hah it's quite a bittersweet feeling." The old woman said as she handed him the flowers gently.

"But you know the God above isn't so cruel and the person you are going to meet...is quite special to you...isn't she?"

"What are you talking about?" Feng asked in confusion.

"Nothing it's just that I could see her in your eyes."

"My...My eyes?¿"

"Look at the time it's almost noon! Young man, you should leave now. It's my lunchtime." That woman said as she pushed him out of the shop and closed the door.

"What just happened? Forget it, Ling must have already reached that place." Feng said as he ran in the same direction where Ming walked.

"Tch, Tch...this man must stop lying to himself...but no worries now everything will change." The old woman said as she looked at the sky.

°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°

Feng walked towards the big graveyard located just near the flower shop.

He looked around but there weren't many people there today.

"Maybe I am the only one?" He murmured to himself as he went towards the grave located below the cherry blossom tree.

"The flowers are in full bloom, looks like people are taking good care of you."

"Ning... I don't know if you remember me or not but I am your classmate Yang Feng (a gentle wind blew over his face)...Umm, it's a bit awkward right....*sigh* I must be crazy." He murmured as he kneeled to put the flowers on the grave but to his surprise, there were a bunch of lilies already located.

.

"This...*rememberers what the old woman said about a brother buying flowers for her sister.* It must have been her brother but where is he?"

.

"Ming! You are too much! How could you do this to me!!" Ling who was just a few metres away from the graveyard on the road said as she hit the man in his chest.

"That's Ling and that man Ming wasn't it her husband's name...*looks at the flowers* huh don't tell me Ning's brother is Ling's husband!?" Feng who was hearing about it for the first time walked toward them to clear his doubts.

Meanwhile with Ling and Feng,

"You knew I couldn't meet her until I get over my guilt but still you tricked me and made me come to her grave...How could you do This!!"

.

"Ling I just wanted to show you that she is gone but we are still here and kai needs both of us...so please don't leave..."

"You are still the same...You don't know me at all. I was the wrong one who choose you!! It's all because of my stupid decision that she is under that cold stone and I am here living."

.

"What do you mean?" Feng who overheard their conversation or fight asked as he looked at Ling with confusion.

"Who are you?" Ming asked in an irritated tone.

.

Feng ignored him and walked towards Ling holding his breath, "what do you mean?" he asked again but this time his voice was more fierce and the look on his face was scary.

And Feng couldn't understand why but he felt as if something inside him just broke and anger rushed into his body.

.

"Feng---I---" Ling was on the verge of mental breakdown and in this whole chaos, they didn't notice the fact that Kai was outside watching them while standing in the middle of the road.

until they heard loud horns and when they turned around they saw a large truck coming towards them and Kai was standing there unaware of all that.

.

"Kai! Move away from there!" Ling said as she tried to run towards him but before her Feng had already run towards him but it was too late, the next thing he felt was his body covering Kai while getting hit form something hard.

.

Ling and Ming ran towards him, Kai was safe as he could hear him cry but for himself, he wasn't sure as he could see tears forming in Ling's eyes.

.

"Yang Feng! My God...I'm sorry..." Ling said as she cried while trying to stop his bleeding but nothing helped.

"Ling, calm down. I called for the ambulance they will be here soon." Ming consoled her but both knew it was just an excuse to lighten their heart and the man before them would not make it alive.

.

Feng knew it too, that now he was on the verge of his end and it felt like nothing...he didn't feel any pain or any regret but the fact that his sudden stubbornness led him to this made him laugh at himself.

.

His eyes then noticed the Colourful Nova that finally occurred but it was too late for him to admire it....but for some reason, even at his last breath he couldn't help but think of that girl again...while muttering her name...

"Ning...Ning.." He shut down his eyes counting his last breath.

.

"Feng Wake up..."
