They sat there silently. Completely losing track of time, the large window covered in white curtain shows that it's already dark out but no one moved. Both waiting for the other person to do something to fill the awkward silence after their long talk.

Ming Xi finally decided to break the silence. "So, that's it. Everything was setup for me to forget."

Li Zhen sighed, "We all thought it was best for you. You were having such a hard time protecting everyone. We only wanted to protect you in return."

Ming Xi nodded, "Sanchai...that's my real name?"

"Yes, Dong Sanchai. Your mother let you keep the name Ming Xi because that was the name you kept whispering while you were at the hospital in London, we didnt know at the time. Lei was only just informed by the medics of this, and they tagged you as Ming Xi thinking it was your name. We later realized it meant 'Daoming Si'. After you got treated in London but remained in a coma, Lei made arrangements to get you back to Shanghai without letting anyone else know of your whereabouts. Xinghe and I, we were shocked when we heard you withdraw from Mingde. We thought about it, and decided to move in Sanya with you too. For a new start. And it has been good, at least to me and Xinghe. As far as I know, the rest of F4 doesnt know about you being here either. Even Xiao Yu."

"F4? Xiao Yu?"

"Does the name Ximen and Meizou ring a bell to you?"

Ming Xi shook her head. But somehow hearing those name brought bittersweet feelings.

"Well, there's Lei, Ximen, Meizou and Daoming Si. They're F4..." Li Zhen continued, giving a brief background on the four and how they met before. "Xiao Yu, she's your bestfriend too. We never got to tell her about what happened, since she's Ximen's girlfriend and she might let him know. At least that's what Lei thought."

"But it's not for anyone to decide!" Ming Xi sudden outburst surprised Li Zhen, who flinched. A headache was forming and she was starting to feel dizzy from all this information. She didnt think it would be something this big. "I'm sorry Zhen, its too much for me. I dont even know how I feel about this. It doesnt make sense but at the same time it does."

"Sanchai.." Li Zhen gently took her hand and squeezed "I'm sorry..." There's really no words for her to say how she feels for her friend and for everything that has happened.

Sanchai absently opened her emails, not really reading any of it. Spam, spam, spam, ads, spam, spam...

One email caught her eye and immediately clicked on it. It was from a advertising agency.

She quickly read through it. Oh my god, she thought, her heart suddenly beating fast.

Dear Ming Xi,

We received your portfolio a few days ago and have had the best time reviewing them. The photos were very professional and the looks are versatile.

In this note, we, Tian Advertising and Artist Management would like to extend our invitation to screen you for a camera test wherein we will take studio photos and a self-intro video of you to be one of our campaign ambassadors.

Looking forward to working with you in the future, should you decide to come by our office.

Hope to see you soon,

Mike Tian, CEO

Tian Advertising and Artist Management

She scrolled down and looked at the attachment in the email. It was a pdf copy of her portfolio. But it looks very different. The photos were from when they had the mock shoot with Li Zhen wearing a bob-cut wig and stylish clothes, the information shows her real information as Dong Sanchai with aka Ming Xi.

She was stunned, trying to process everything.

She almost jumped out of her own skin when the phone suddenly rang. "Hello?"

"Hi, It's me."

" Aaaaand..Cut!" the director called.

The staff cheered and everyone in the studio began congratulating each other for their hard work.

"Xi! You were fantastic!" Li Zhen called as she ran towards her friend and enveloped her in a huge hug. Xinghe in tow, bringing the largest bouquet of flowers Sanchai has ever seen.

She was still not used to being called Sanchai again. And her friends from school still continued to call her Ming Xi, not knowing the story behind it.

The past two weeks has been crazy. After the photoshoot and talk they did in the studio, Sanchai has come to accept that she did have a past life and that she needed to come to terms of what happened. Though she is still in denial about the absence of Daoming Si, she felt that she isnt ready to think about it yet. To her, he was someone she will eventually meet. It wasnt hard not to know about him, he was all over the news and internet. But what surprised her more was whenever she sees a article about him, she felt like her heart was going to breakm. She had finally talked to Lei about the past. And though it was only over the phone, he promised to come this week and really talk to her in person. She knew deep in her heart that she wanted to find Daoming Si but she also knew she is not ready to face him yet. Her insecurities always surfaced.

"This is all your fault." Sanchai pouted, though she didnt really try to hide her smile.

"Hey! It was Chao who sent those photos to the agency!" Li Zhen defended herself.

Chao, after printing the photos, secretly sent a few to a friend who works in a advertising agency and they wanted to take a camera test of Sanchai, who still goes by the name Ming Xi. Though hesitant at first, she agreed to only do it once just to have something added to her portfolio for future auditions. But it ended with them wanting to sign her as a model for a ad campaign.

"By the way, how did the audition go?"

"Which one?"

"Whoaaah, youre getting that much already that you cant remember any of them?" Xinghe teased which earned him a punch in the arm from Sanchai.

"If you're talking about that audition after Zhen's birthday, I have to go thru another stage next week."

"You are on a roll, Sanchai!" Xinghe exclaimed. It was Li Zhen's turn to punch him in the arm.

"Hey! Lower down your voice! It's Ming Xi, you derp!" Li Zhen whispered.

"Oh, Sorry!"

"But seriously, Sanchai.. you look wonderful. You've come so far and now I'm seeing you be true to yourself. You really are spreading your wings now."

Sanchai blushed. "It's because I never really thought of anything before than just to finish school and help my parents with the online food store. But this time, I'm doing something for me."

"Does that mean you're going back to Shanghai?" Li Zhen cautiously asked.

"I dont think she's ready yet. I'm getting the feeling that she's not ready to face Daoming Si." Xinghe remarked.

Sanchai nodded. "You're right. I'm not ready for that. I dont remember much about why we parted ways and why I feel like my heart is aching when I think about him, but I'm not ready to see him just yet."

Xinghe gently patter her head. "Well for someone who used to kick everyone's ass when things dont go your way, I'm seeing a very mature side of you now"

"What? What do you mean kick everyone's ass?!"

They laughed at her reaction and pulled her towards the changing room to get her ready to go out to dinner with them.
