Ye Jie wore casual denim jeans with a white t-shirt and a denim jacket over it. Very rarely he chose to let his perfectly trimd hair to be ssy and today was one of those days when he left his hairs untouched.
His brown hair fell over his forehead caressing the edge of his brows. He casually swept them to one side with his hands.
Xu y was sitting beside him in the backseat of his car looking intently at his side profile while his one hand held hers and the other hand held his cell phone to his ear. With the sunlight stroking his side profile, he looked srizing to Xu y.
She was utterly enthralled by his attractive face. As her eyes fell on his soft lips, a reminder of his kisses made her blush in embarrassnt and she turned her face to look outside the window.
Xu y read a poem by Nikita Gill, once. It went like this:
’Kiss Soone
who makes you
feel their magic
in your bones,
who makes you wonder
how can soone
who looks like
witchcraft
at midnight
taste so holy.’
Those were Xu y’s thoughts about Ye Jie at that ti as well. It was really unfair that he not only had a handso face to bewitch others but he also tasted so divine that he could make Xu y forget her own self.
Xu y didn’t know where they were going but in an unknown period of ti, she ca to have established a blind trust in him. The extent of her trust in him was unknown to her but she knew that she trusted him enough to believe that he won’t hurt her.
Therefore, as long as he was accompanying her, it didn’t matter where they were going.
The car stopped after driving for more than an hour and Ye Jie helped her in coming out of the car. Xu y disembarked the car with her hand in his rough ones and looked around with curiosity.
They were in the northern mountains and as far as Xu y could see, there were mountains and tall trees in her sight.
"We have to walk for a bit," Ye Jie started. "Where I want to take you, our car can’t reach there." He said with a pleasant smile on his face enhancing his enchantnt. Xu y had to look away to escape his charms.
Although, Xu y couldn’t find many buildings in this area she had a feeling that it was private property. She had seen so security checks when they entered this mountain range. But she didn’t question Ye Jie about it.
"Let carry you," Ye Jie suggested thinking about her still hurt ankle.
"Nooo..." Xu y dragged her answer dramatically as she took a couple of steps back. Seeing Ye Jie’s crestfallen face, Xu y added, "I an my ankle is much better. I can really walk." She really tried to convince him.
"But my heart is not at ease." Ye Jie’s statent made her feel guilty for so reason.
She contemplated for a minute and said, "Then... Erm... How about you give a piggyback ride?" She suggested herself thinking that it was a safer choice.
"Piggyback ride?" He quirked his brows seemingly amused. Xu y nodded her head like a rattle in excitent. Ye Jie smiled sweetly and squatted down allowing her to climb on his back.
Xu y looped her arms around his back and got on his back. Ye Jie slowly stood up and started walking on the stone path. Xu y was looking around at the greenery. There was a strange kind of peace at that place. The chicks chirping with the sun shining and a faint fragrance of flowers in the air was soothing to Xu y.
"Baby?" Xu y heard his deep voice.
"En." She replied.
"Is this your first piggyback ride?" Why he asked this question was unknown to Ye Jie. He just noticed that she was really excited about it.
"Yup. It’s the first ti. Who else will give a ride?" She retorted absentmindedly.
"Your d-" Ye Jie bit his own tongue not daring to complete his sentence. He wanted to ask about her dad but realized that he’ll spoil her mood with just her father’s na. He coughed a bit and continued walking in silence.
After walking for 20 minutes, Ye Jie placed Xu y down. She was looking around with wide eyes.
They were standing between a beautiful cherry blossom forest. The cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The pink blooms entranced Xu y. Her surrounding was full green a mont ago and now, it looked like she walked inside pink heaven.
Looking at her face filled with happiness, Ye Jie asked, "Do you like it?"
She tilted her head to look at his brown eyes looking at her. "Like it? I love it. Cherry blossoms are my favorites." She told him. "How did you know I love cherry blossoms?" She asked.
"I didn’t." He replied making her frown. It was true that Ye Jie didn’t know about her liking for cherry blossoms but he knew that he loved her cherry lips and he really wanted to show her this place that reminded him of her. But he didn’t tell her that. "I just brought you here for hanami [1]. Also, because you’re my cherry wife." He replied.
"But we don’t have a picnic basket." Xu y argued and ignored the last statent. He smiled again and pointed his finger in a direction ahead of them. As Xu y followed the direction of his finger, she saw a beautiful pavilion in the middle of the cherry blossom forest with a table full of delicacies.
Xu y looked back at Ye Jie’s face and said, "Thanks for being so ticulous, Ah Jie."
The mont she said ’Ah Jie’ Ye Jie’s heart missed a beat. He placed a hand over his chest. "Are you okay, Ah Jie?" She looked worried but Ye Jie’s heart really was in disarray. Ye Jie only nodded to assure her that he was fine.
He had heard Ah Jie plenty of tis from other people then why did the way she said it, was different? ’If only you knew what you’re doing to , baby.’ He thought.
’If only you knew what it ans for to stand here with you, Ah Jie.’ Xu y thought looking at him.
