My friend

Engrossed in her work, ZouMi had no idea of time, until she felt someone near her, out of reflex, she formed a fist, ready to punch with all her might. The person beside her sensed her next move, and held her wrist right before his face. With her head hanging down, and her free hand was trying to reach for the gun near her waist, stopped when she heard the voice.

"Are you always on guard?"

She raised her head and met with a handsome face, paired with deep hazel blue eyes, she felt something stuck in her throat, which was unable to swallow, she could feel his hot breath on her cheeks.

"You... Why.. How are you here?" she stuttered.

"When did you start stuttering?"

"Ahmm." Clearing her throat, she recovered from her shock and moved back lightly, to make a space between them.

"Gu Huan, what are you doing here? I mean how did you come in?"

Pointing at the door with his index finger, "Except of this, is there any way to enter or leave? Or am I not welcome here?"

"No, that's not what I mean, I didn't here any knock nor opening of the door, so I was shocked."

"I wanted to surprise my new friend, so I lighten my footsteps, honestly speaking I knew you would react like this." She raised her brow, as if questioning him to what he was his point, looking at her raised eyebrow he continued, "I knew you would attack, but I wasn't sure you would do with some weapon or by yourself." He teased her.

Her lips twitched, while listing to him, she was totally annoyed, so she pushed him. When she kept her hand on his chest, she could feel his hard chest underneath the light t-shirt, again a current circulated in her body, but this time she didn't let it show on her face and firmly pushed him.

'What's the matter with me, why does my body act strange around him?'

When her cold hands, touched his chest a warm sensation rushed all over his body. Something with in her kept calling him, whenever they have any skin contact, a current passes all over his body.

'What's wrong, this isn't the first time someone touched me, during shoots this happens a lot, but why does my body react like this to her touch?'

Both had similar thoughts, and similar reaction of their body unknown to them. A silence enveloped in the spacious room and Gu Huan was the first to break the silence.

"Ahmm, it's past lunchtime, why not have lunch together?" No reply.

"Hey, I was just teasing you, come on don't be angry." Still no reply. So, he walked towards her, her head hanging down.

"ZouMi, I'm sorry, I'll never do this again, talk to me, you can hit me too." Still no reply. He felt something fishy, so he approached her and kept his hand on her shoulder, her body leaned on his weight.

"ZouMi, ZouMi what's wrong open your eyes. Hey, shit! What happened?" Seeing her eyes shut, and her limb body, he was scared. He placed his hand on her shoulder, then slipped the other hand at the back of her knee and carried her in a princess style. The door of the office opened, when he was just a meter away.

"What happened to her?" Worried and fearful voice of Si Ban, came from the door. His heart missed a beat, when he saw ZouMi's lifeless body, being carried by someone.

"I don't know, she just fainted." Gu Huan responded, he had once seen this guy practicing with ZouMi.

Si Ban, turned around closed the door and walked towards her desk, Gu Huan was confused, as why did he close the door.

"Come here fast, we need to take her to the hospital." He pressed something on the table and the cupboard moved and a door appeared.

"Why are you still standing there, come fast!" His frustrated voice bought back Gu Huan from his shock. He quickened his pace and followed Si Ban, they arrived near the lift waited and then entered soon. Directly to the parking lot and straight to the car. Gu Huan saw Si Ban making calls on their way, but his mind and heart all was focused on the lifeless body in his hands. Her usual bright face was turned pale, as if all the blood in her body was drained. He could not feel her weight at all, she was like a feather in his arms, unknowingly he pressed her closely near his chest, he was unknown to the feeling in his body.

'Should I call this worry? Or fear? Or am I scared? But, for what? I don't know her for long, we met just weeks ago, with only countable times. What is going on?' a fight within him was going on, and they reached to the hospital, he came back to his senses when Si Ban opened the door.

He carried ZouMi's life less body out of the car, and saw the back door of the hospital, where some nurses, a ward boy and a stretcher was waiting for them, without thinking of anything Gu Huan took advantage of his height and large steps towards them.

They took the elevator and reached the operation room. ZouMi was pushed in the operation room and after that heavy footsteps echoed in the silent corridor. Gu Huan just kept staring at the door, in which ZouMi was taken.

A team of five people with white coat and mask ran towards the operation room, Si Ban who was anxious from the time they left the office, till now, sat on the chair. With his head supporting with his palm. Neither of them spoke, as if they had mutual understating and waited for the red light to turn green. After what seems like ages, the light finally turned green and the doctors came out one by one.

Si Ban quickly stood up walked towards him, brushing Gu Huan aside.

"How is she?" the doctor glanced towards Gu Huan and turned to Si Ban.

"Follow me." His voice blunt.
