33 The Painful Feeling Of Rejecton

The next morning was one of the most strangest at base. Apart from the fact that Anna skipped her exercises today, Bai Sheng also didn't leave his house or tell anyone to train so it sort of became an unauthorized holiday.

"So.....you got rejected?" Chesa asked seeing the girl's gloomy expression. She wanted so bad to say 'I told you so!' but she kept her mouth shut after realizing that the girl was really hurt. She had a feeling that there was more to it than just rejection.

"Yep, I got dumped right after i confessed " Anna smile was filled with sarcasm. She stared at Chesa "I.....was so stupid to think that....he..he would even have feelings for a girl like me.." Anna sighed while combing her hair, she really didn't feel like doing anything today. All she wanted to do was just go to bed, bury her face in her pillow and cry.

"Don't look down on yourself Anna, I'm sure Bai Sheng just doesn't feel the same was that's why"

Chesa comforted, Anna sighed. If he Al least spoke a word yesterday she wouldn't be such a mess, but he was silent.....he didn't tell her she was wrong nor did he tell her if she was right.

Anna put down the comb in her hands and smiled at Chesa "Can you please tell Jason that I can't make it today....you can tell him I'm sick or something"

Chesa shook her head "Anna....lets go!"

"No!" Anna pouted, she was definitely not in the mood.

"Will you stop throwing a tantrum like a child?" Chesa sighed at the pouting girl. "I don't want to run into him, or even see his face!" Anna said burying her face in her palms.

Chesa patted the girl's head. "Ok then, I'll speak to Jason"

Finally giving up, Chesa walked away. This is why she never wants to fall in love!

...

It was dark and raining heavily. Being his second day at the Duan base Bai Sheng had no idea where he was.

He shouldn't have listened to Su Chen when he knew that guy didn't like him

Bai Sheng sighed to himself.

Now he was sure he was walking around in circles. "Who's there?"

Bai Sheng heard a soft voice call out, he wasn't sure who it was but he was elated to find out that someone was here in the darkness with him.

"M..My name is Zhang Bai Sheng and I think I'm lost" Bai Sheng stared at the area where the voice was coming from, it looked like a young girl not older than 15.

"You're the new kid right?" she girl said smiling. Bai Sheng couldn't see her smile but he could hear the warmth from her voice which made him feel slightly better.

She raised her umbrella over his head and moved closer to him.

"Come on, I'll take you to the dorm" she held his hand startling him. This was the first time he had been this close to a girl before.

They walked hand in hand till they finally reached the dorm.

It was brighter and Bai Sheng could finally see her face "Pretty..." he muttered under his breath but the girl surprisingly heard him.

"Thanks" she smiled. "I'm June. Nice to meet you Bai Sheng" Her smile was mesmerizinghe found himself tongue tied.

That moment was forever etched in his memories, that name...

....

Bai Sheng's eyes opened to a familiar surrounding. It was him room, thinking back to his dream he couldn't help but clench his fists tightly.

He hardly had dreams about her, why now?....why today?....

Bai Sheng recalled the events of yesterday and felt his heart beating faster.

'What did I do?...she must hate me now' Bai Sheng massaged his aching temples and sat up.

"Bai Sheng! You're finally awake!" Su Chen walked to him and put down the bowl in his hands.

"This.....is for you" Su Chen said observing the man's face, trying to find out what happened through his expression but he couldn't see anything through his expressionless face.

Bai Sheng stared at the porridge in front of him and he suddenly remembered something.

"Have you seen Anna today?, is she okay?"

Su Chen's brows furrowed, did everything that happened yesterday have something to do with Anna?

"Why are you asking, does she have something to do with why you were passed out in front of the girl's...."

"No!" Bai Sheng replied coldly, getting down from the bed he makes his way to the bathroom.

"Just answer my question"

Su Chen sighed, it seemed he wasn't ready to talk about what happened.

"Well....now that you brought her up, I haven't seen her today. She even skipped her therapy today...she says she's sick" Su Chen said, of course he didn't believe Anna was sick. Chesa told him that she was just using it as an excuse to sleep in.

"She's sick?" Bai Sheng asked, su Chen nodded making him more worried.

After taking a shower in quite a hurry, Bai Sheng found himself standing in front of the the girls' room.

He stared at the door for a while before raising his hand to knock. He hesitated before putting his hand down.

She must really hate him, if just shows up here now...he wondered what she would do.

Bai Sheng took a step back, he wasn't sure how he should face her.....what should he say?

He sighed and decided to go back, he wasn't ready to face her yet.

There was the sound of the door opening.

"Bai Sheng?" Anna looked up at the man who was staring at her as well. He seemed to be as surprised as she was.

Bai Sheng took a deep breath 'Here goes nothing'
