63 Comforting Her

Zhen-Zhen listened to FaMo. She didn't want to scare people, so with a heavy footstep, she followed FaMo behind.

They went back to the living room. When Zhen-Zhen sat down on the sofa, she noticed the small square card. It was the keycard of Hannah and Andrew's Room.

She might drop it either during her panic attacked a while ago or when Tristan carried her as he went rushing out of their hotel room.

"What should we do now? Your red eyes… you must turn it back to blue before Tristan comes back." FaMo said as she jumped on the sofa beside Zhen-Zhen.

She sighed deeply as she glanced at FaMo who was giving her a worried look. Then Zhen-Zhen shook her head.

"I don't know how to." This already happened to her before. She could remember that her Fa-Fa freaked out at that time. He also begged her to turn her eyes back but she was also clueless how to do it.

FaMo put his paw on his lower mouth, thinking of possible ways to resolve this matter. He could feel the sullen aura emanating from her. She was sad and feeling down. He was not used to seeing Zhen-Zhen like this. He wanted to lighten her mood.

FaMo decided to talk to her like a real friend who was willing to listen to his friend's troubles and concerns.

"What's wrong, Zhen-Zhen? Aside from being afraid of Tristan getting mad at you, what are the other concerns that are troubling you right now? You can share it with me?" 

FaMo asked her, hoping that he could do something for her after knowing her problem or give her advice as her friend and guardian. Though he was in doubt if he could give her a piece of good advice, he still wanted to try.

"I can't understand, FaMo, why suddenly it hurts here when I saw Tristan running away from us a while ago," Zhen-Zhen replied, bringing her right hand on her chest.

FaMo sighed. He wanted to roast Tristan using his fireball now. He didn't want to see Zhen-Zhen sad like this. But he knew she would not allow him to do that to Tristan.

"Don't worry, Zhen-Zhen. Maybe it is also normal to feel that way. Just like what I told you this morning, Tristan is starting to affect your emotions and feelings. With regards to Tristan running away a while ago, it was because Hannah needs immediate care. He just wanted to help her. She is Tristan's best friend, remember?"

Zhen-Zhen just bobbed her head while saying, "Yes, I know that and I understand. But I just can't help it." 

"Why is that so?" FaMo probed. He wanted to know more so that he could also understand her. Human's emotions were a little bit complicated.

Zhen-Zhen paused for a moment, reliving the memories in her mind.

"Mo-Mo released my hand at that time, leaving me as she ran towards Fa-Fa's direction. She protected Fa-Fa against the guardian warriors. Mo-Mo cared so much about Fa-Fa. The same thing with Tristan, he cared so much about Hannah. I am sad because at that certain moment I looked like I was the guardian warriors trying to harm Hannah and Tristan was Mo-Mo who was trying to save Fa-Fa." Zhen-Zhen openly shared her thoughts and feelings to FaMo.

"That's why I am really afraid that Tristan will hate me and get mad at me," Zhen-Zhen added while gazing down. She looked like she was about to cry once again.

A cold glint flashed through FaMo's dark onyx orbs. 

'If he dares get mad at you then I will roast him using my black fire. Oh… I can even bite him or scratch his handsome face using my cat's claws!' FaMo thought to himself but he didn't dare to voice it out to Zhen-Zhen.

"Zhen-Zhen, Don't think like that. You will just make yourself sad. Then your eyes will not turn back to their original color. Hmm, why don't you call him using that thing… that object you are carrying with us while strolling around the beach." FaMo was referring to Zhen-Zhen's mobile phone.

Zhen-Zhen's eyes lit up when she heard FaMo's suggestion. She immediately stood up and went to their room, getting her phone.

The moment she went back to the living room, she was already holding the phone. She tried calling Tristan. It rang several times but her call was not answered.

Zhen-Zhen dialed his number again a few times but no one was answering the phone. It looked like Tristan was still busy. She was wondering if how was doing right now.

"Is Hannah okay? Is she gonna be fine?" Zhen-Zhen anxiously mumbled while staring at the black screen of her mobile phone.

"Tristan is not answering," She said. Her mood became more gloomy.

'Eh… I think I made a wrong suggestion. Zhen-Zhen's mood didn't improve. It worsened.' FaMo scratched his head using his paw.

Then suddenly something crossed his mind. She jumped off the sofa and ran towards the bedroom. When FaMo went back, he was biting the three white tulips in his mouth. He gave them to Zhen-Zhen.

Zhen-Zhen accepted the flowers while looking at FaMo confusedly.

"Zhen-Zhen, forget those negative thoughts. Just think about the happy ones. I saw your cheerful and bright mood this morning. I think it was because of these flowers."

Zhen-Zhen stared at the three white tulips in her hand. Indeed, she was very happy this morning because she received these flowers from Tristan.

"Don't be sad, Zhen-Zhen. Tristan also cares about you. He brought you here. You said he is kind to you, treating you well. He even gave you these flowers. So Zhen-Zhen, cheer up!"

Zhen-Zhen recalled her happy moment with Tristan when FaMo was saying those words to her.

'FaMo is right. Tristan also cares for me. He brought me with him. He planned to send me to school. He helped me build the sand castle and he gave me these flowers. He even promised me that we would watch sunrise and sunset together.'

With those thoughts in mind, Zhen-Zhen was able to cheer up. Now, her sweet charming smile appeared on her lovely face. After a few seconds, her eyes turned back to blue.

She scooped FaMo and hugged him. "Thank you, FaMo."

While hugging FaMo, Zhen-Zhen's eyes found Hannah's keycard on the sofa. A light flashed through her two beautiful blue orbs.

"FaMo, I think this is the right time to fulfill Tristan's first wish."
