'Today is the day. I need to be strong and see this through.' Looking to her side Chang saw that Jian was asleep, truly asleep and not faking it from the sound of his gentle low snores.

'He must have been really tired, he even stayed awake with me for so long trying to get me back to sleep. Such a kind man deserves so much more.' Gently kissing him on his cheekbone, being careful not to wake him, Chang rose to clean herself quickly.

Padding out silently, wrapped in a towel she saw that he still slept peacefully. Pausing for a moment she just watched him, hating that this would be the final time she would see this beautiful picture. Sighing she continued, trying not to drown in her bitterness.

Dressing quickly she donned a simple knee-length black dress, knee-length black boots, and a long black scarf. Black for mourning. After Chang went to the vanity and pulled out one of her most prized possessions.

A small simple gold band with a few diamonds inbedded in it with a leather tie wrapped around it lay there, preserved.

Grabbing it by the tie she lifted and placed it in the palm of her other hand. When she lifted the small gold band felt heavier than it was, or ever had before. Fingering it Chang stared at the small characters engraved into the inside, before closing it into her fist, forcefully sealing it away from her eyes.

'You know the consequences if you waver, this will hurt, but less than it would the other way.' Slipping it into her clutch that she was going to use, Chang turned her attention to the sleeping man.

Walking to the bedside Chang sat beside Jian and lightly stroked his face until he began to wake. Smiling, Chang waited until had opened his eyes fully before greeting him warmly and giving him a light good morning kiss.

"Hmm, I must have pleased my wife last night greatly for her to have woken so pleased with me." Eyes slightly widened with surprise Jian gave her a crooked grin.

"No, I just wanted to give you a proper good morning."

"Come here, why are you dressed already?" Pulling her closer Jian eyed her outfit up and down.

"There's some places that I want to go to with you. I wanted to show you them."

"Fine, give me a moment and I will ready myself for you." Releasing his grip on Chang, Jian began to arise giving a big yawn as he did.

Keeping up her front Chang left to go prepare coffee for the two of them, needing to just leave him for a moment before her face fell.


Once ready the two left shortly after. Chang tried to keep up a pleasant attitude but the thought that this was their last day plagued her. Jian tried to cheer her up several times, but when he tried it only made her feel worse.

Parking after reaching their destination the two still had to walk a distance before reaching the bridge. Walking hand-in-hand the two walked up to the center as Chang led them to the edge, to look over the water. Releasing his hand Chang went up to the edge, gripping it.

Looking around Liang JianAmal viewed the graffiti panels of art with a raised brow.

'Why here?' Silently the man waited for her to speak, feeling a strange foreboding building.

As Chang looked out the wind blew through refreshingly pushing back her hair back along with her long black scarf. As she inhaled Chang tried to steel herself to the path she had committed herself on.

"This is called the Pont Des Arts. It used to be called the love-lock bridge too though. Couples would come and they would set a lock on the bridge to "lock in their love together forever."

"Not anymore, though the city banned it as the weight from all the locks actually damaged the bridge, so they put up the art. When I was younger I had heard about this place and had thought that it was very romantic. I thought how nice it would be to do that with someone.

"After I first came to Paris I would come to the bridge and I would think about you. I would think how nice it would be, that maybe if we did that, it would be like a ward and maybe we would have been able to stay together." Starting to ramble Chang confessed some of the thoughts she had kept hidden.

Heh, if you want to we can do such a thing when we go back home. Somewhere where it will not damage property." Chuckling a little Jian put a hand in his pocket and walked towards her.

"No. We can't."

"What do you mean?"

"Jian, I am not going with you. This is where we need to part ways. For good this time." Turning her face from the water, keeping all her emotions from it Chang calmly faced him.
