After a few hours of shopping, Yue Ling was finally done with her errands .
One thing she liked about Imperial was that, the stores have a policy where they can deliver the things you buy straight to your house .
And that, she did not put to waste at all .
Walking amongst the crowd, she thought about what do next . It was actually her first time exploring Imperial since she moved here .
Suddenly, her footsteps came to a stop .
Her bluish green eyes looks at a building wall .
On that wall were countless posters and flyers, but her eyes stayed fixated on only one out of the many posters and flyers .
The poster was old and the colors were slightly faded .
It was a poster with five people, each person wearing the color black but in different styles . At the top of the poster was the word 'FAITH' in bold white print .
And at the bottom corner was the word, 'Disband' and the date in red letters .
The date was dated back to three years ago .
Yue Ling stared at the poster before she slowly raise her hand and gently touch the poster .
Her fingers softly stroke the person in the middle as if she was touching the person again .
The man had a short faded hair cut . Both his arms were on the shoulders of the two men next to him . His eyes were closed as he grinned cheerily .
Even with his eyes closed, one could see that he was a man with great looks that god took the time to sculpt .
She stared at the face of the man, her eyes softened with a glint of sadness .
Her heart felt like it had suddenly disappeared .
After a long while,she part her lips and whispered quietly, "I'm sorry I betrayed you . . . "
Yue Ling continued to stare at the man in the poster with unblinking eyes .
He was the man she loves, the man who brought light into her dark world .
Three years . . . to think time had completely gone by . Even she did not realize it . . .
"Excuse me Miss . Are you alright? Can I help you with anything?"
A soft voice spoke next to Yue Ling, breaking her train of thoughts .
Yue Ling turned her head to her left and sees a woman in her early twenties, with auburn medium length hair . She stood about 165cm and because Yue Ling was taller, the woman had to look up at Yue Ling, while she smile sweetly .
"Thank you, but I'm alright . " Yue Ling smiled before turning to leave .
Sensing that Yue Ling was going to leave, the woman quickly blocks Yue Ling's way, "How about coming in for a cup of tea or coffee?" She pointed to a glass door .
Looking at the door, Yue Ling realized that the supposedly building wall with posters and flyers was actually a huge tinted glass window .
She pursed her lips slightly in whether she should go in or not . Coming to a decision, she nods her head and follows the woman into the cafe .
"Please sit anywhere you like . I saw you stopped in front of the window for a long time, so I got curious and came to see if you wanted to come inside . "
The woman said as she walks behind the counter and puts on an apron with the logo 'An's Cafe' .
Yue Ling sat on a high stool near the counter, "Is this your shop?"
The woman smile, "Mm . This was my dream, after I married my husband, he helped me achieve it . Now, it's like a dream come true . "
Hearing the word 'dream', Yue Ling's lip curl into a small smile .
She once had a dream too . . . but it was taken from her . . .
Not noticing the change in Yue Ling's expression, the woman asked, "Would you like tea or coffee?"
"Coffee please . "
Smiling, the woman started to make a cup of coffee for Yue Ling .
Yue Ling looked at the happy woman, then she scanned the cafe .
It wasn't big, but it wasn't small either . The walls were charcoal grey with paintings of different aspects .
There were approximately ten tables; five for four person tables and five for two person tables, then there were the four stools by the counter, which she sat on one .
"Here you go miss . A nice cup of coffee . "
"Thank you . How much is it?"
"No need, it's on the house . " The woman smiles and leans against the counter . She rest her chin under her hand and stares at Yue Ling curiously .
"Are you a fan of FAITH too?"
