“Ge, please take me to my room.” Suyin swallowed past the lump in her throat. Honey’s teary face was stirring her emotions, it has become her weakness- and that’s what he was taking advantage of.

Honey s.u.c.k.e.d in a sharp breath and sprinted to stand in front of her wheelchair. Stream of hot tears rolled down his cheeks. Abruptly, he crossed his hand at ears. “Sorry if you are hurt. But not sorry that I called you mom in front of everyone. That’s you are. Honey’s mom.”

“I’m not mad because you called me mom, you know that, don’t you?” For the first time she didn’t reach to wipe his tears or say soothing words. “You gave wonderful breaking news to the reporters and the entire nation. It was the highlight of the day. Thank you for it. Ge, can we?”

Before Honey could say a word, his gaze caught Wang Shi’s, shaking his head. A soundless ‘mom’ came as he looked Suyin taken away by Zeng, his grip on her dress slipping away.

And then she was gone.

“Will she ever talk to me again? Will she leave us? I just wanted to make sure she stays with us forever.”

His sobs echoed in the hallway, and Wang Shi pulled him in his embrace. The pain seared under his bandages as his stitches pulled. Honey pulled away realizing. “Sorry, does that hurt?”

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.” Wang Shi ruffled Honey’s head, noticing his gaze was down, scratching the tip of his shoes against the floor. “Come, we need a man-to-man talk.”

Honey’s eyes lifted. “Man to man?”

“Will you push the wheelchair to the room? It’s been a while since we had a good man to man.”

“B-But, mom– She’s furious this time,”

“Then I’ll say you don’t understand your ducky very well. Can she stay angry with her little fairy longer?” Honey instantly wiped his cheeks and ran to push the wheelchair.

Xiu Mei watched the two leaving. “I don’t think Suyin is wrong?”

“So as Honey,” Jianyu said, “He’s just a kid who had been through a lot in life. Suyin’s distance from Wang Shi is making him insecure. He’s looking for an assurance that she’d stay with them. Forever.”

“You should take a rest. The entire day you were working for this conference. It’s best we leave this country earliest, only then you’ll take a rest.” When Xiu Mei opened her eyes again, Feng Jin was standing in front of them. “Arrangements?”

“Done. Anytime you can leave. I have arranged an air ambulance for Big brother and Suyin.” Jin said, taking off his military hat and ducking it under the armpit. “I have orders to stay here until the situation is completely under control. Probably six to eight months.”

Jianyu studied his face. “Did you talk to her?”

Jin sighed, rubbing his hand on his face. “I’m ashamed of my behavior that night. I don’t know how– how to face her?” the worse Suyin had put pleasant words about him at the press conference, the burden of which was sinking him in. Not to ignore, she hadn’t complained a word about it to Wang Shi. Respect.

“You don’t really have a choice. Eventually, I’m going to tell Brother Shi about it. So, it’s best you fix this ASAP, and talk to your would be sister-in-law.”

“Better not call her that, she’s dangerous.” Xiu Mei warned and then patted his shoulder, “Jokes apart. She is a gem of a person, just a little angry bird. Go talk to her, once.”

“What happened? Why did you come here suddenly?”

As Zeng was about to take Suyin to her room, she heard a woman’s voice, weaving its way through the open door of the room near hers.

“So,”

“Marina, she’s leaving too? Can’t you understand?”

“But this isn’t her country. We can’t ask her to stay forever. She needs to go back to her home, to her people.”

Zeng hesitated before the door, calculating whether he should continue eavesdropping on their conversation or just walk away. Suyin’s perked ears gave him the answer.

“The country is at a crucial stage,” Revon continued, “We need guidance, and someone influential to keep the interim government in check. Once their plane takes off from our country, another tyrant will rise to power. Human greed has no limits…. and El Sandrios is the biggest source of oil. We’ll become the target of hungry nations and greedy politicians.”

Suyin c.o.c.ked her head to peek inside the room from the little opening. Revon was sitting on the stool near his son, while Marina was standing close, rubbing his back.

“Why not talk to her about it? I’m sure she’ll understand us.”

That didn’t go down well with Zeng. They want Suyin to stay and help them put jumbled pieces of their country back to its place. Who they take Suyin for? A walking, talking charity? Their private property? For God’s sake, she has her own problems.

He realized he didn’t want to hear them anymore. Neither he should let Suyin hear this. She’s too soft for all this and might decide to jump into their matters.

“STOP.” Abruptly Suyin pressed her palm on the wheels, bringing a halt to their walk.

Zeng’s eyes narrowed. “You better not be thinking about that. Even if I have to take you home by force, I won’t blink an eye. Don’t forget I’m the elder one.”

Suyin rolled her eyes. “Joke of the century.”

“Stop rolling your eyes. You won’t find your brain back up there. God forgot to put one.”

Suyin gave a side look, “And you are the reason God created the middle finger.”

Zeng, “…”

Zeng stared at her. She stared back. His jaw twitched. “I’m not in a mood, Suyin. You’ve pissed me off. Why can’t you just think about yourself once? Dare stay here, and I’ll tell Honey you are thinking about leaving him.”
