Overwhelmed by such a blinding surprise, deafened by the ecstatic cheering of the crowd and drowned by the ripples of her own heart's slapping waves, she felt like a soft wax melting against the warmth of his presence.

For a moment, her mind went blank as his arms wrapped her making her feel the loud thumping of his own heartbeats. Then, all of a sudden, she didn't know how to react, as she herself was squealing deep inside for such a wonderful feeling of being surprised, of being kissed, of seeing him again!

In the next moment, realizing that she may be too transparent before him, she sanked in shame. She knew she was never good in hiding her emotion. She then wanted to hide, to disappear, to ran away, as she could no longer contain her feelings.

Anthon released her and he looked down lovingly into her eyes. "I miss you so much, Jia! " He said sincerely, sending her soul into the ninth cloud.

Remembering that they were in the middle of the crowd, she glanced up and quickly swept her eyes to all of them. She saw their sparkling eyes, their teasing looks, their crazy smiles... She heard them laugh and squeal...

Oh, dear! These were all making her go insane!

She then burrowed her sharp fingernails into his side and exclaimed bashfully.

"You're soooo bad! You make me so ashamed!" She said softly, enough for him to hear.

Anthon laughed and the crowd laughed with him. He was so amused at her awkwardness that made her act like a child.

"What is there to be ashamed

of? "He said loudly, making her more conscious.

The organizer of the game suddenly butted in.

"Jia, you still have not served your punishment. We would not proceed to another game if we would not be given our justice. " He said, giving Anthon a rolled, side glance.

"It's done! " She protested.

"What's being done? The rule said that it should be you who will kiss the lucky winner of the lot. But it was Anthon who kissed you, so it's not valid! "

"I won't " She said as she hurriedly buried her face in his chest, intensifying the teasings of the crowd.

"Don't worry guys! She will serve her punishment when we'll be alone. " He said as he chuckled, waving a hand at the organizer to make him stop. Or else, she would end up crying.

Then, one of the class raised her curiousity. "Anthon, how long is this going between the two of you? You were both so discreet about it. "

"There's nothing going on yet. "He laughed. " Unless anyone here would help me make her say 'yes'! "

The crowd erupted into a commotion once again.

Soon, the last part of the event started. It was the formal dance party. The automated lightings then set in, throwing its multiple hues across the dance floor as it moved around and changed its colors according to the beat of the music.


As the sweet and romantic piece was played on, the men gently brought their ladies into the dance floor. It was the perfect moment to talk about the past and to bring back the fun they used to have. They may all had led separate, happy lives but at this very moment, reminiscing the past just felt too wonderful.

Anthon stood up and held Jia's hand, pulling her gently into the middle. Those hundreds of splendid white lights which slowly moved according to the rhythm set her mind into a perfect, romantic mood. She placed her hands into his chest as Anthon laid his hands at the small of her back. All throughout the whole length of the music, they did not talk but held each other's eyes, communicating silently the language of their hearts.

Another sweet music followed and Jia could no longer hold the temptation of placing her head against his chest while Anthon hugged her closer. There were just things in this world meant to be left unspoken but could be better felt and expressed by touch.

The music went lonelier and the night deeper making them forgot that they were not alone on the dance floor.

"How long have you been here? "Jia, finally broke their silence.

"Just long enough to prepare the place. "

She looked around. Yes, this magnificent set up of the place spoke about the magic his hands could do.

"So, does it mean you were here from the start? "

"Yes, I was watching you. "He declared.

Dear skies! He was there watching her crying moment? What could he possibly think why she was getting emotional?

"I was your music operator when you lost your focus because you miss me! "

"How shameless.. " She gritted her teeth in annoyance and pinched both of his sides painfully.

The more he laughed while she shrank deeper.

"Why are you here? " She dared to ask again.

Anthon frowned. "You don't want to see me? "

"Anna would be mad to see us like this. " She said as she pulled back , realizing that she had been carried away and once again lost her principle.

"Use your head, my love! Not your jealousy. " He laughed, rubbing his nose against hers.

"Who ever told you I am jealous? "

She snapped, objecting against his claim.

"I saw it in your expression when you told Jerry that you saw her in the clinic. "

Jia got confused. Was he there peeping at the door? Or was he disguising as Jerry? But he's not , she was sure of that!

"Jerry always brought with him his black spy pen." He smiled in amusement as he revealed it.

"Spy pen? You mean a spy camera in a shape of a pen?"

"Yes, my dear. How could I bear not seeing you in two years if not because of your video clips? "

Jia sanked in disbelief. She now understood why Jerry would always initiate a conversation with her. That was because he wanted a longer video coverage.

She now also understood why Jerry introduced himself as the owner of the flower shop. That was also to gain her trust and respect so that she would accomodate him better! Thus, he would be able to give him longer video clips.

" You're such a cheater! " She exclaimed.

"Was it not effective? " He laughed unceasingly.

"You did not even tell me that you own a flower shop. You're too full of surprises. "

"To know all about it, there's just one simple thing you need to do. "

"What? " But then she regretted, why would she need to know all his whereabouts?

He lifted her chin up,. making her look into his eyes.

"Marry me. "
