“Gift? Which kind of gift are you talking about?” A frown settled on his forehead when he heard her words. He never asked her for something, neither was this his birthday, so why this special gift?
Ye Nian nodded her head and then, she took out a small gift from her bag which was wrapped in the gift paper. “I just got my recent salary.. that was my first thing since I purchased something for everyone. So, I wanted to give it to you as well.”
She handed the gift in his hand when Shi Yu was still in a daze. Ye Nian was not understanding the change in his expressions at all. Weren’t people happy to know that there’s something for them? Why does he look so sullen?
“Won’t you open it as well?” he gave her another stressful aura, she still tried to sound happy and asked him to go for the gift but he was still acting strange.
His gaze was simply fixed on the gift in his hand as if he doesn’t know what to do with it.
“Shi Yu, is everything alright? Wh-” she was interrupted in the middle when Shi Yu answered her back in a hostile tone. “Ye Nian, you bought a gift for me from your first salary. You do know that from the first salary people bring something for their loved ones. I’m not the one.”
His words were very sharp. Ye Nian’s smile vanished instantly which was now a sign of shock. She doesn’t know what she has done to gain his rude nature.
“Shi Yu, what happened? why are you so… rude?”
“I’m not, just reminding you about the reality. Ye Nian.. you are too young. I know what you think about me in your mind, I’m not a kid. But this is what w-” She didn’t give him any chance to finish his words.
Ye Nian got out of his car hearing half of his sentence and slammed his car door hard. She doesn’t know what goes in her mind but it was heartbreaking to hear. What does she think?
She does like him, but she isn’t a child anymore. Remembering her own feelings is what she has been going through all the time and he is lecturing her to not think about it?
Without bothering him anymore, Ye Nian walked off from the path and took the local transport to go back to her house.
Shi Yu was too much occupied by her sudden departure which not only stunned him but he was in dilemma. ‘Did I say something wrong?’
Once, Gu Yan reminded him that he can never be in love with his daughter but Gu Yan also teases him. Moreover, she is too young, eighteen now whereas he is already twenty-four.
“But why does it hurt so much to see her let go…” His hand unconsciously made its way to his heart and massaged that space a little. In the end, his mood only worsened.
Speeding up the car in his direction, Shi Yu got inside his parental house, with no calm composure. God knows what got into him but he can feel anger erupting inside his mind
“Fuck this!” He threw the nearby vase on the ground which broke into tiny pieces of glass. He can see his own face in those pieces and his face… his face was furious.
He was not in the right state of mind. Today his mother’s murderer got into bars but he isn’t happy yet. He was over the clouded moon a few hours ago, but before meeting Ye Nian.
Shi Yu’s hair was messy and his formal clothes were all cringed at this point. His eyes traveled to the nearby bar of his father and without thinking about anything, his feet dragged him out.
Picking up the unique piece of the wine, he opened it in one shot and started drinking, forgetting about the glasses in fact.
He just drank and kept on drinking until it was finished. After five minutes, the whole bottle of wine was empty and rolling on the ground.
Shi Yu doesn’t know what got inside his heart but he was too addicted to the taste he felt. It was easing his pain. ‘Is this because of neglecting Ye Nian.. and the harsh words I spoke to her?’
“No..No… It can’t be! I’m her elder, I shouldn’t think about her in that way.” He was too much absorbed in her memories. The face of hers which was hurt by his words, he saw that in the car.
Just to eat out his pain, he picked up then another bottle from the place and started drinking without a stop, and to be relieved.
….
Father, She was happy that all the misunderstandings got cleared out today. His wife got justice and he knew that even Shi Yu must be happy tonight.
He returned to his mansion in the night. Just when he opened the large floor of his villa, nothing came into his view but darkness. There were no lights lit up. Moreover, a rolling bottle came near his shoes which made him frown.
“Who has drunk those wine?” He can totally confused. Picking it up from the floor, he made his way to see a figure, who was wasted from the tons of drunks.
Father Shi’s eyes furrowed when he witnessed Shi Yu sitting under the darkness and drinking.. bottles of wine. The pungent of alcohol was strong and even Father Shi felt something was amiss.
“What is going on Shi Yu! What have you mare yourself?!?” Father shi asked in a little bit of sternness but in return, Shi Yu passed him a chuckle.
His chuckle was dangerous. It was not because he was happy, but Father Shi understood the meaning behind it.
“Shi Yu…” he just spoke his name out to gain Shi Yu’s attention towards him, who looked at his father as if he was not in his full sensed.
“So..you came back… how does it look to see your son like this?”
