"Captain Long . . . " a curvy woman took off her sungla.s.ses as she smiled to greet the man in uniform .
"It's been long indeed . . . since the last time I saw you . " the deep voice of Long Yun replied .
Her smile remained but her eyes had a tinge of sadness .
"Would you mind having a cup of coffee with me? For old times sake . . . " his voice sounded odd . He was sure she would immediately reject .
She looked deep into his sad eyes . "I don't mind . Captain, don't be too serious . It's just a cup of coffee . "
He forced a chuckle . "Then, this way please . " he gestured towards the way .
Walking distance from the airport is a cozy café adorned with potted plants with gla.s.s walls . The whitewashed wooden furniture made it daintily rustic .
When the waitress came up to take their orders, the lady took off her sungla.s.ses, which she was wearing when they walked under the sun .
"Two cups of b.u.t.terfly pea tea . . . then lemon slices on the side please . " her voice was soft but carried certainty .
Long Yun kept on staring at her .
Since the waitress heard no objection from the other party, she immediately went her way to process their order .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
She pretended to just notice his stare . "What's wrong?"
"Did I not invite you for coffee?"
"Oh . . . I didn't know you like to order for yourself . Sorry!" her antics were a bit childish .
"Heh, I was just curious as why you ordered tea when you agreed with having coffee . "
"Well, sometimes we do things differently from what we agree to . . . " she answered .
He fell silent . He looked grim .
She smiled at him tenderly . "We both learned from it all . It's just that . . . we both chose to be happy . "
He looked back at her in the eyes . "Are you . . . happy?"
"I am . . . happy . . . now . " Her smile reflected the truth . "I also believe that you are happy as well?"
"I am . . . " he answered with a tender expression .
"Good . " Madeline Song had a contented expression . She sipped her tea for the last time . "Thank you for the tea . " She stood up to leave .
He also wanted to take her back and stood from his seat .
She gestured with her hand to stop him . "It's best that I leave first . " she gently shook her head .
"Oh . . . alright . " He sat back down .
"See yah around!" she waved with her fingers and left without another glance .
As he stared at her leaving figure, his phone rang .
"Are you still at the airport?" a deep voice inquired .
"I . . . I'm at the café nearby . When did you arrive?"
"I just landed . "
"Then I'll walk back . Wait for me . "
Long Yun had a subtle smile . His partner is also a pilot . They work things out even with the busy schedule . Indeed, he is happy now .
He and Madeline Song parted after she recovered . Her mother took her to Country E and they both agreed to loosen up any ties within them . They wished each other happiness and they still do .
However, losing a baby together is hard to forget .

Xiu Jin sat at the other side of the gla.s.s wall .
"Why are you here . . . to mock me?" Ming Xiaoyu glared at him .
"I just . . . wanted to check on you . Xiaoyu, what my mother did was indeed unforgivable . . . but you should've chosen to be happy when you decided to break my heart instead of telling the truth . "
She sneered . "You think you would've accepted me if you knew?"
He was taken aback . Even now, he would not be sure if he would make a different decision back then if the circ.u.mstances is what he had laid out .
She snickered . "See . You are not as nice as you make yourself out to be . Jin, I regret nothing . If you are done trying to wash your conscience clean, then don't bother coming here again . "
"Your . . . your daughter . . . "
"She will recover . . . eventually . Don't worry . Even if she isn't truly yours, she is not as wicked as I turned out to be . Besides, I believe that the boy she used to date still cares about her . He is not like you . . . not like you at all . " she smiled wickedly before walking away .
.
In a recuperation facility, a young man was squatting while talking to a young woman in a wheelchair .
Her gaze was empty, her expression blank . She looked like a breathing mannequin .
"Rus.h.i.+ . . . " the pain in his eyes reflected in his voice .
"I'm sorry . . . I'm sorry for leaving . Our son . . . I knew you wanted him . . . but I blamed it all on you . I'm sorry . I'm here now . . . I will take care of you . I will never leave you again . . . just . . . just come back to me . Rus.h.i.+ . . . "
