Someone once said: ’The worst feeling in the world is the feeling of guilt.’ But the worst kind of guilt is when you haven’t even done anything wrong. That was the kind of guilt in Ye Jie. He merely gave in to his brother’s tantrum but now his wife’s glare was like scorching heat making him resolve: ’I’ll never give in to Ye Jun’s tantrums ever again. It’ll be a lot easy to avoid him than to face Xu Mey’s glare.’ "My dear husband," Normally, Ye Jie would have been happy to hear…

Where this phone call left Ye Jie in a euphoria, Xu Mey was in an intense predicament. It was an undeniable fact that Xu Mey cared about Ye Jun just because he was Ye Jie’s only brother.

Doubt... It’s a very complicated word. We all have doubts. Doubts in ourselves. Doubts about our abilities. Doubts about our relationships. There is doubt everywhere around us. We have caged ourselves, our creativity, and our passions between the shafts of the doubt. A single word, doubt. It destroys us. There is a very peculiar thing about doubt; once it’s seed makes a place in a person’s mind. There is no way to get it out. It doesn’t even need the water of evidence to sprout. It just…

A person doesn’t always hide in the murk because he’s fearful of the people around him. Oftentimes, a person just conceals himself in the dark because he’s petrified of his own silhouette. ’You keep a lot to yourself because it’s difficult to find people who understand.’ More often than not, your own silhouette rather than grasping the mayhem running wild in you, end up abandoning you. It’s not strenuous to find a person to hear you out. But... It’s arduous to find a…

We always heard that there are only two types of love: Intimate love and platonic love. But people like Yu Kim believed there is a third type of love: The one-sided love. And it’s the most beautiful one. You feel the moments alone. You feel the happiness alone. You feel the pain alone. And... You love all alone... Li Qiao was not planning on listening to Yu Kim. He took yet another step away from her. Yu Kim narrowed her eyes at him. "Li Qiao, get your damn a** right here…

The clattering of the cup was loud enough to reach Xu Mey’s ears making her frown. Realizing what she had just said and what effect it must have had on Li Qiao she facepalmed herself. "Qiao, calm down. Nothing happened to me at all. I’m in perfect condition. You know I won’t lie to you ever." Xu Mey said slowly trying to get her words across to soothe his uneasy heart. Li Qiao was not convinced completely but he tried to calm down knowing well enough that she really won’t just lie to him.…

There were quite a few things running around in Xu Mey’s mind when she left the house in the morning. Her head was like: "What’s up with that kiss? And those sugary words?" Her heart was like: "It was a way to show that he cares." Xu Mey’s heart again skipped a beat without any prior notice. Her head was again like: "Is he giving mixed signals?" Her heart was like: "No, you stupid. You’re just having second thoughts... AGAIN!" Xu Mey parked her motorbike at a secluded place and…

Some words are bitter. Some words are sweet. Some words are powerful yet some words are weak. But... Some words are just simple. Yet those simple words are the heaviest.

No words are ordinary. Currently, Ye Jie was lost in his reverie. Xu Mey’s subtle yet radiant smile under the rays of the sun was the…
