Apology Gift

The next day.

Yesterday, Xu Wenwen wanted to apologize to Mo Zhexi but he already left before she could say something to him.

Xu Wenwen had been worried that if she was too harsh on him. They've just met not so long ago and she was already being rude to him.

Xu Wenwen decided to ask Lu Jingyi for his number. After getting the number from Lu Jingyi, she dialed it.

After a few rings, it went through.

"Hello?"

It sounded like Mo Zhexi just woke up because Xu Wenwen heard a lazy and hoarse voice coming out of the phone.

"I-It's me. Xu Wenwen."

On the other side of the phone, Mo Zhexi jumped up from his bed when he heard the caller was Xu Wenwen.

"O-oh.... Uhm....What's up?"

"Can I meet you later? I need to talk to you about something."

"Sure. Sure. Of course you can."

"I'll text you the time and address. See you soon."

"Okay. S-see you."

Mo Zhexi found a great opportunity to apologize to her from yesteeday. He was relief that Xu Wenwen didn't avoid him and even asked him out.

He couldn't contain the joy in his heart. What should he give as an apology gift? Does she like flowers? Rose? Chocolate? What should he buy?

Then, lightbulb sparked on his head. He could call his Sister-in-law to find out the answer. Immediately, he dailed Lu Jingyi's number.

The call went through and Mo Zhexi got straight to the point. Finally, he got some advice on which gift he should give.

According to Lu Jingyi, Xu Wenwen's a model. Definitely didn't want to have sweets because her body was easily to gain weight. So, no chocolate.

Xu Wenwen herself like the flower dandelion. Lu Jingyi mentioned that dandelion represent freedom according to Xu Wenwen's words.

When the dandelion turned grey, the seeds can be blown into the air and that's when the seeds are free. Thus, freedom.

Xu Wenwen also had nightmares most of the times. Lu Jingyi suggested to give her a dreamcatcher.

Mo Zhexi wrecked his brain on the information he got and finally knew what he wanted to give.

He got up getting ready and rushed outside to buy her a gift before they meet. Two hours before he could see Xu Wenwen. It's enough time for him to find his gift for her.

.....

Xu Wenwen arrived at a relaxing cafe. She found a table near the corner and sat down waiting for Mo Zhexi.

Soon after she sat down, Mo Zhexi arrived. He looked left and right before he found where Xu Wenwen was.

He thought he was early, never thought she was earlier than him. He then sat down and proceeded to give her the gift he bought.

"What's this?"

"An apology gift. I'm very sorry for yesterday. I was too anxious and rushed you. I didn't even consider your feeling."

Xu Wenwen didn't expect he would give her an apology gift and now she felt even more guilty.

"Thank you. I-I also have to apologize to you. There's a reason for me for pushing you away. Mostly related to my past. Because I'm afraid 'it' will repeat again. Whenever men approached me for something or invited me, I always turned them down thinking that all of them maybe similar to that one particular guy. That was my ex-boyfriend. Let me tell you what happened between us."
