Zoe's fascination

"Major?" Zoe called his name again. 

"Hmm?" He hummed in reply. 

"Do you know the Zhang family?" Zoe said in a soft tone. 

"Yes, "Song Zhilan said, not knowing what she was trying to tell him. 

"Do you remember the picture of the woman we saw?" Zoe asked him. 

"Elena Zhang? The one you were fascinated by?" Song Zhilan asked. He still remembered how fascinated she was by that woman. It was as if she knew something that nobody did. He had long understood that Zoe's fascination with Elena Zhang was not normal. 

"Yes, "Zoe whispered. "She is my grandmother." 

Song Zhilan fell silent for a moment. After a while, he said, "And the pictures of a man with grey and a woman with green eyes…."

"My dad and aunt, "Zoe whispered. 

"Why are you telling me this?" Song Zhilan couldn't help but ask her. He felt as if she was sharing a secret with him and he suddenly felt closer to her.
