Chi Zaozao and Ye Que hid by the door, listening to the conversation between the two kids, and were completely captivated.
Not until deep into the night, when there was no sound coming from the children's room, did they push the door open. After tucking the kids in, they returned to their own room.
Lying in bed, Ye Que mimicked the children's voices and asked Chi Zaozao, "Zaozao, do you like me?"
Chi Zaozao mimicked the children's voices too and replied, "I like you."
"Then shall we always hold each other?"
"Sure."
Ye Que turned sideways to embrace her, still using a childish tone, "Zaozao, I love you."
Chi Zaozao raised her eyes to look at him, smiling slightly, "Ye Que, I love you too."
They gazed at each other, and the distance between their faces grew closer, closer...
So close that they were greedily inhaling each other's breath, so close that at the moment their lips touched, they kissed, feeling each other's warmth, heartbeat...
