I’ll go with you

“Honey,” Son Wu dramatically yelled as he made his way towards his brother’s office.

“Aren’t you being a little too dramatic?” Jin Chen gave him a quick glance.

“ChenChen.”

Jin Chen paused.

“A-Son. Where have you been? How did father award his scholarship to Sheng Yue?” He questioned.

“I don’t know.” He crossed his legs. “You know father already. He doesn’t tell us what’s in his mind.” Jin Chen was ready to say something to me before Son Wu interrupted him again.

“Aha! Do you know the mission father has for me?” He quickly uncrossed his legs and drew closer to Chen’s seat. “Please, ChenChen. Tell me.” He pouted. Hearing his second younger brother call his name in a cutesy manner feels like a rumbling noise in his ears.

“I don’t want you to call me that.”

“Call you what? “ChenChen?”” He laughed. “But you like it when…….

He glared at him.

No one told him to shut up his mouth.

“I’ll speak to you at home. I’m busy now.” He calmly said to him.

“Alright then. I’ll make my way home.” He glanced at his brother hoping he ask him to stay but he didn’t. “You’re so boriiiiiiing.”

Jin Chen sighed after he went out of the door. He gazed at the picture on his desk. A smile forming on his lips. It was actually neither a smile nor a frown.

“I probably look weird now.” He picked up the picture closer to his eyesight. “When are you coming back?”

………….

“Sheng Yue. Where are you?” Son Wu yelled through the front door. She appeared in no time.

“Why are you making noise? Granny is sleeping.” She pulled him out of the house. They walked towards the garden, to their favourite hiding spot, which was no longer a secret place.

“Now. Tell me. What’s wrong?” She crosses her arms, demanding for an answer.

“You don’t have to stand like that. Just sit down.” He pulled her arms out and forced her to sit. He then turned to her with a smile on his face. “Sheng Yue,” he was still smiling, making it more creepy than it actually was.

“Son Wu. Your smile. Are you trying to prank me?” She began to look around. “Are you hiding something?” She was alerted. He sighed.

“Why didn’t you tell me father was sending you to the prestigious university?” He frowned. Sheng Yue felt a bit embarrassed that her friend’s father was funding her education. She hoped he wouldn’t talk about it but luck was not on her side.

“I don’t know.” She bowed her head, fidgeting with her hands.

“If you’re going then I’m going too.” He casually said. She light up. The curves of her lips curled upwards into a big smile. The excitement bubbling inside her expressing this moment through her eyes. She hugged him. A tight hug. He didn’t want to let go. He smiled.

“Are you sure?” She was overly excited. She didn’t know how to control herself and Son Wu was also not giving her the chance to calm herself down. He expressed the same excitement.
