In her despondent look, Hao found a weird shadow of himself. He also decided on one of such nights to fight back with everything he got in the Dawn game. He even recalled his face that night at this moment.
It wasn't that much different from Cher. "Sigh, ok… I'm by your side anyway," he gave her such a promise without saying much.
Being by her side meant he would also work his best to lift off many burdens off her shoulders.
She needed the game to distract herself from what she was currently thinking about. And he knew this was just an escape, not a solution for a problem.
It took him many months to get himself upright and standing erect like now. So he understood her better, knowing she needed as much time as he needed back then.
And if he could help, he would just try his best to give her such comfort and shoulder.
When he was at his lowest point, he wasn't that lucky to have anyone by his side. But now he had the choice to stand by someone else in her lowest point.
