Emotional

Kio added as he opened his laptop, "And call me Kio."

Yu Chen walked deep in thought. As she turned a corner, Si Xia suddenly pulled her out of the way. It was then that Chen noticed that she was about to bump into a doctor.

She immediately bowed and apologized but the doctor seemed preoccupied as he did not even notice the two.

Si Xia said, "Are you an idiot? Why don't you ever watch where you're going?"

Yu Chen turned around and muttered a sorry before beginning to walk again.

Si Xia felt bad, he did not mean to burst out like that, but he could never control himself if it came to Chen's safety.

He caught upto her and said, "Sorry for yelling at you."

Yu Chen shook her head. She said, "It's not your fault. I was not looking where I was going."

Si Xia grabbed her hand and started pulling her towards the staircase. Chen was surprised. She tried to take her hand back but Xia only tightened his grip. She gave up and asked, "Where are you taking me?"

Si Xia: "...." He did not utter a word as he pulled Chen up the stairs. Chen asked questions for the first few minutes but gave up when she realised she was getting no answers.

Si Xia let go of Chen's hand when they had reached the roof. Yu Chen realised that he might now be ready to talk, so she said, "What's the big idea."

Si Xia went and stood close to the railing. He said, "I heard you like high open places. So I thought this might help you to clear your mind."

Yu Chen was pleasantly surprised as she went and stood beside him. She closed her eyes and felt the wind on her face. A little smile formed on her lips. The famous smile that could make one feel that they were on top of the moon. Yu Chen opened her eyes after some time to find Si Xia looking at her.

Yu Chen said in a small voice, "Thanks. I needed this." She then looked into the distance.

Si Xia also seemed to be pulled to reality as he looked ahead and said, "Don't take their words to heart. Those idiots don't even think before speaking."

Yu Chen shook her head, "No. I don't mind. Whatever they said was true. I was only sad because I knew it was true."

Si Xia: "No one can decide where they are born."

Yu Chen: "If they could, I would still decide to be born in my family. I wouldn't want to lose a happy family for money."

Si Xia turned his head and looked at her as Chen continued, "I'm not really a person who likes to spend lavishly. I'm happy as long as I can cook my favourite dishes and code with nice music in the background."

Chen looked down, "It's just that.....when I see all of you, from such good families, never having to worry about money. I kind of feel envious."
