Bitter
The next morning, everyone had gotten up with their bags packed and ready to leave. But only two people were missing.
"Where is Elle and Xian?" asked Mu Chenyan. "Why aren't they here yet? Don't tell me they overslept."
"No, they are packing their bags," said Hyson.
"What? Didn't they pack their bags last night?"
"Maybe they had more important things to do last night," chuckled Xiang Wai in a suspicious way.
"And what could that be?" asked Hyson seriously.
"Oh, you know."
"What? I don't know."
Xiang Wai gave him a hateful look and said, "You let it be. You're still young."
Hyson was appalled by this comment. He had been hearing this too much lately even though he was clearly the same age as Raelle. Maybe he had really gone too far setting his image as the baby. Now, it was difficult for everyone to see him as an adult but this was not good. He had to do something to change this.
