The Start Of An Adventure Between Two People

I notice he was talking with a man. Someone who didn't work at my company. It was..

"Wei qiang?"

Wei qiang, the son of the CEO who owns the qiang company. Also, someone I went to highschool with along with..Zi xin. I watch as both head out the hall room.

"Excuse me." I say following them out the hall.

When i catch up to them, i hide and listen to what they were talking about.

"Zhi xiang? You came back? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Wei qiang do i have to tell you everything?"

Wei qiang scoffs and puts his hand on zhi xiang shoulder.

"Of course! We are best buddies, aren't we? Also i heard from your grandfather that you were marrying Xiaoxiao Lin? Did you tell her?"

Zhi xiang pushes his hand off.

"She doesn't have to know," he sighs "plus it'll be hard for her if she found out."

Wei qiang shook his head and put his hand behind his head.

"Zhi xiang. You told everyone but her why you left in high school. Now your back and you won't even tell her? You even changed your hair color so she would know! Now you're marrying her and won't even tell her about the whole zi xin thing? Gosh, think about how she's feeling right now."

"Wei qiang lower your voice, someone might hear us."

Finally the right time for me to come out.

"Like me. Someone like me might hear you guys."

They both turn around.

"X..xiaoxiao! Uh hey, how are you doing?" He said nervously.

I stomp up to zhi xiang and push him lightly.

"Hard for me if i find out?" My voice begins to break "the whole zi xin thing? What are you hiding?"

He glances off and doesnt say anything. I push him harder this time.

"Tell me!"

Tears begin to fall. Wei qiang grabs me by the wrist.

"Wait! Xiaoxiao! Your confused right now!"

I turn around and shake off his hand.

"Confused? So you're telling me this man isn't who I think he is! This man isn't Zi xin?" I yelled.

Wei qiang doesn't say anything and curls up his fist.

"Xiaoxiao!" Zhi xiang shouted "come with me now!"

Zhi xiang grab me by the hand and drag me to his car.

"Get inside." He says opening the door.

"No" i say crossing my arms. "You're a liar. I won't go with liars."

"Now!"

I roll my eyes and stepped into the car. He shuts the door and gets into the car. He starts to drive away.

I look to the other side and continue to cross my arms.

"Zhi xiang" i take a breath are you really-"

"Yes i am. It's hard to explain."

I turn my head.

"Why didn't you tell me? You just hid it from me thinking I wasn't going to find out?"

He doesn't say anything and continue to drive.

"Where are we going?"

He speeds up and drive up to square center beach. When he stops he exits the car and opens the door.

"We're here."

I walk out and look around the beach. It was empty, you could hear the waves, and the sunlight reflected on the water.

"Why are we here?" I ask him.

He sighs, "because this is the last place we were together before I disappeared or more likely escaped."

I raise my eyebrow.

"Escape?"

"Yes escape the Wang family. When my parents died in a car crash mister wang was a friend of my dad and took me in. Changing my name. Then one day, I found out that the Wang family was planning to..sell me for money. So I ran away from their house and that was the day we met up here. After I left, I got kidnapped and woke up in a giant mansion and that's when my grandfather explained everything."

I stop him, "I still don't understand how you couldn't tell me?"

"I couldn't tell you because you would've tried to help me and when I woke up, I was in the United States with my grandfather and didn't have a cellphone. Then when I went to have a meeting with your father I was excited but worried at the same time. Worried you wouldn't want to see me or that you were with someone else. Then i bumped into you at the park, best thing ever but i still couldn't build up the strength to tell you and for that I'm sorry."

I wrap my arms around him.

"Idiot. It's been eleven years. I've waited eleven years."

"I'm sorry."

I chuckle and look up.

"I forgive you, if you make it up to me. Since you left me all these years."

I take off my heels and hit his arm and run.

"Try to catch me!"

He brightly smiles and also takes of his shoes then chases me. I thought to myself, was this it? I finally had my happy ending?

I was wrong. I knew this was only the beginning..the start of an adventure between two people.
