Aaron: Gui Gui? Are you dreaming again? (tease)
Gui Gui: Hey! (pout) I'm not.. I'm just happy because you got hired. You must treat me.. (smile widely)
Aaron: Sure.. (smile) Let's go to your favorite ice-cream's store..
Gui Gui: Really.. (smile widely) Let's go now..
I quickly pulled him with me. We went to the store. I was looking at the menu.
Gui Gui: What flavor should I choose?
Aaron: I'll like mango snow... Gui Gui, what do you want?
Gui Gui: I want this.. Strawberry snow. (smile)
Worker: I'm sorry.. That customer took the last strawberry..
I turned and looked. Its Xiao Man with Wang Zi. Both of them are laughing at each other. So close. I could feel my heart ache badly. Suddenly, I felt someone holding my hand. I looked down and saw Aaron's hand. He knows. Even how much I fake it, he knows that I'm still deeply hurt.
Worker: Excuse me, miss.. Would you like to change a new flavor?
Aaron: No~ (got cut)
Gui Gui: Aaron, its ok.. We come here to celebrate you for being hired.. (smile) I would like this..
I pointed at the menu without looking. A voice called my name. Its Xiao Man. She waves at me. I force myself to smile. I hold Aaron's hand tightly and walked throughout to them.
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, what a coincidence? (smile) Hi, Aaron..
Gui Gui: Yeah.. Hi..
Aaron: Hey..
I looked down staring at my shoes. Xiao Man was still sitting on a wheelchair. I felt awful.
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, why don't you and Aaron sit with us?
I looked at up and saw Wang Zi looking at me. I quickly looked aside. I can't stare into his eyes.
Aaron: I and Gui Gui was going somewhere.. So~ (got cut)
Gui Gui: No.. We could stay for a while.. (smile)
He sat opposite of me. I could feel my body shaking. I hold Aaron's hand tightly.
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, how are you? I didn't see you for a while.. Are you busy?
Gui Gui: I'm sorry.. I just.. (pause)
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, are you still blaming yourself for my state? Don't worry, I'm fine.. (smile) Because of this, I got myself a 24/7 driver and maid. (small laugh)
I know Xiao Man was trying to make me feel better. But I can't. Its just that because of me. She's like this.
Wang Zi: What do you mean 24/7? The next time, I'm not taking you anywhere..
Xiao Man: Hey! (pout) Don't be so grumpy.. (smile)
I could feel sharp pain inside my heart.
Aaron: So, Xiao Man.. What did the doctor said about your condition?
Xiao Man: The doctor~ (got cut)
Wang Zi: The doctor said that after the operation, she have to do more therapy.. But apparently, someone likes to skipped therapy's section..
Xiao Man: Hey~
Gui Gui: Xiao Man, you could walk again?
Xiao Man: Yes.. Wang Zi's dad knew a doctor that can help me.. After the operation, I could feel my legs but I have to do more therapy to be able to walk like last time..
Gui Gui: Xiao Man, I'm sorry.. If its wasn't me.. (pause)
Xiao Man: Gui, I'm fine now.. So, don't blame yourself.. (smile) Anyway, i got myself a free maid.. (smile)
Wang Zi: What do you mean by a free maid? (angry)
Xiao Man: Don't show that face.. (pinch Wang Zi's face)
I could feel the sharp pain in my heart again.
Xiao Man: Eat this! It will cool you down..
She took a spoon of her snow's ice-cream and feed Wang Zi. My heart hurts so much now. But I force myself to smile. Aaron took my hand and hold tightly. He whispered softly.
Aaron: Are you alright? Do you want to go?
Gui Gui: I'm fine.. Its just~
Worker: Here's your mango snow and peanut snow..
Gui Gui: Thanks.. Wait! Did I heard peanut.. (pause)
Worker: Yes.. Here you go..(smile)
Gui Gui POV..
Omg! I hate peanut.. Of all the snow's ice-cream.. Why I have to point this? I think that I'm going to throw up..
Wang Zi: I thought you don't like peanut?
His soft voice woke me from my thinking. I kept silent.
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, when did you change? I thought you love strawberry..
I could I tell her that she's eating the last strawberry. We could share the same strawberry but not the same lover. I force myself to smile.
Gui Gui: No.. I just recently like peanut.. Its my favorite now..
I took a scoop of the snow's ice-cream and put it into my mouth. Its taste horrible. I can't take it. I quickly excuse myself to the toilet. In the toilet, I rinsed my mouth.
Gui Gui: Gui Gui, hang on there.. Its just peanut..
I walked back out and sat with them.
Xiao Man: Gui Gui, are you alright?
Gui Gui: Yes.. I'm fine..
Aaron: Gui Gui, why don't I switch with you? (whisper softly)
Gui Gui: No.. Remember, you're allergic to peanut..
Xiao Man: Gui, you and Aaron are together? (smile)
Gui Gui: Huhh?
I couldn't answer anything.
Aaron: Yes. Both of us are dating now..
Xiao Man: Is that true? Gui Gui, congrats.. (smile)
Gui Gui: I.. (pause)
Wang Zi: Congrats...
Again my heart hurts. I quickly covered my sadness with a smile.
Gui Gui: Thanks.. I have to congrats to both of you..
Xiao Man: Me? (curious)
Gui Gui: Both of you are getting marry.. Congrats..
I smile. But that smile makes my heart hurts even more.
Xiao Man: Who said that? (blush) I'm not marrying this grumpy..
Wang Zi: Hey! I'm not a grumpy..
Xiao Man: Yes! You are.. (smile)
Both of them starts teasing each other. The more it went, the more pain I felt. I couldn't take it anymore. Suddenly, Aaron hold my hand and stood up.
Aaron: We are late for our movie.. Catch up with you guys later..
Xiao Man: Ok.. We don't want to bother both of you.. (smile)
Aaron took my hand and led me out of the store. We walked few blocks away from the store. Suddenly, Aaron stopped. He turned facing me.
Aaron: Gui Gui, I'm sorry for pulling you out..
Gui Gui: No.. You're just worried for me.. Aaron, am I stupid? I can't control myself.. I know its over but I.. (pause)
Aaron: No.. You're doing so well handling yourself in there..
My tears starts strolling down my cheeks.
Gui Gui: I can't... You even.. have to help me.. out.. by pretending to be... my boyfriend..
Aaron: Gui Gui..
Gui Gui: I'm sorry.. I shouldn't have.. (pause)
I wipe my tears away. Suddenly, he grabbed my hand.
Aaron: No! I'm serious. Will you be my girlfriend? I'll make sure that I won't hurt you.. I'll make you happy..
Gui Gui: Aaron.. But I~
He sealed my words with a kiss.
Aaron: I'll try my best to let you forget about him. I will do it even though your heart is not with me..
Gui Gui: No.. Aaron.. Somehow, I felt the same for you.. I like you but.. (pause)
Aaron: I understand.. I could make you love me.. (smile)
Gui Gui: Are you crazy? (small smile)
Aaron: I'm crazy because of you...
He kissed me again. I didn't pushed him away. I wanted to forget Wang Zi. Maybe this is the only way.
