《Memories》VIII - Found
Advertisement
Meizuo was bored. He was busy, but bored. Ximen is somewhere with Xiao Yu, Ah Si just came back from Sanya but he cant get a hold of him. Lei is...probably asleep somewhere. He could never understand how that boy can sleep a lot and still be tired.
After signing all the contracts, and being in and out of meetings the past few hours, he was left there in his home office with nothing to do. His father's secretary had left for the day and now he's here sitting with an empty desk. Bored.
He booted up his computer and started absently scrolling through Weibo updates.
He stopped at a fashion ad. The photo was of a male model sitting on a sofa and a female model sprawled beside him, her head resting on his lap, his arm casually draped on her petite form. He briefly glanced at the coat the male model was holding on his free hand. Nice, that looks expensive but comfortable. He clicked on the photo to enlarge it. He was about to zoom in on the price written on the side of the photo when his finger froze mid-air. His eyes were fixed on the girl in the photo. She looked awfully familiar. Different, but familiar.
Shit.
Ximen's phone was ringing non-stop, but he was afraid that if he answers his phone, Xiao Yu would be mad at him again for ruining the movie. So he just let if keep on vibrating in his pocket.
They were in his house enjoying her day off from work and since he didnt have anything much to do these days, he's enjoying every free time they both can have outside of her work and school schedule. Though he wasn't particularly paying much attention to the movie.

"You do realize that I can feel your phone vibrate beside me, right?" she looked up at him, her soft brown eyes twinkling with amusement as she pinched his cheek.
He breathed a sigh of relief. How could he think she'll be mad at him? This cute little girl may have developed a temper but she's still the same soft, gently girl he fell in love with a year ago. Damn, he's whipped.
"I didnt want to interrupt our movie." he smiled at her.
She winked, "You can interrupt our movie anytime."
He chuckled at the innuendo. "I'll take the call outside, you can continue watching. I'll be right back." He kissed the top of her head and headed out to the connected veranda outside his room.
He took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID. Dammit, Meizuo.
"This better be import-"
"I found her."
"--tant or I'm...What? What are you talking about?"
"Sanchai. I found her."
It took him a moment to realize what was going on. The gears in his head began spinning. He carefully glanced at Xiao Yu, who he can still see lying on the sofa watching the movie.
He lowered his voice. "Where?"
"I dont know yet but I saw a photo of her on Weibo." Meizuo narrated how he found the girl they have been searching for almost two years.
"You sure it's her? Send it to me, then we'll check who did the photos and get in touch with them."
"Sent."
He glanced at his phone and sure enough, a notification for a new email came in. He opened it and was surprised at the attachment. He didnt know it was going to be a photo like this.
He put his phone back to his ear. "Dammit.. She looks different!"
"I had the same reaction a few minutes ago until I convinced myself that somewhere behind that facade is the same crazy girl who fell in love with our much crazier friend."
Ximen sighed. This is going to be a long night.

Gaia Ark
Commander Coop, a four-armed, power-armored, super-soldier, undertakes a mission to assassinate the head of a religious cult bent on destroying the UPSF and everyone they protect. But no mission is ever that simple. GAIA ARK is an action adventure hero's journey featuring a cranky cyborg, vampiric sword, alien monsters, and enough self-discovery to provide a character arc. It's a little rough around the edges, a little crude. I started writing this story on November 2, 2018. This story is mid-composition. Please expect clunky prose, notes [in brackets], and incomplete...
