The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.

Lee Jun Ting help Zhou Qin Yang by put one arm under her shoulder and the other around her waist, both of them walk up to the rooftop to observe the sea of stars above the beautiful night sky. Both of them found a place to sit on a bench.

There was light breeze brush pa.s.s both of them, Lee Jun Ting removes his put over Zhou Qin Yang's shoulders to prevent her from catching a cold. Zhou Qin Yang smiles and lean her head on his shoulder " You are being too kind to me.. What if you leave me after I told you what happened? I will be deeply hurt forever. "

Lee Jun Ting lean his head too on her head, his hands find her hands and intertwine his fingers in hers " No matter what happens I would never leave you. After all, you are my one and only person who can make my heart feel this way"

" Gosh.. when did you become so cheesy ? " Qin Yang let out a light laugh but turns back to serious mode the next second " I told you before that my mother pa.s.s away but I never told you why. She had leukaemia. That time I was still young I thought she could get better if she just stayed in the hospital where the doctors can fix any sickness up and my mother would return home like usual, she would smile and my favourite dishes again "

" But it never happened. Suddenly she stopped breathing, that time my father was by her side. I was at home staying over at my neighbours. I always felt sad that I wasn't the one there with her when she had her last breath. "

" My father really loved my mother. We used to be a happy family. After she pa.s.sed away, my father started gambling and drinking. He even lost his job for months, he used up the money my mother saved for my studies to pay off the rent. "

Zhou Qin Yang's eyes turn tearful " I thought he would be like this for awhile, I waited for him to recover and turn back to the father that I used to know. But my hope shattered. " she tightens her grip around Lee Jun Ting's hand. Lee Jun Ting didn't say anything and let her continue.

" His temper got worse especially when he comes home drunk. He would even take it out on me, he will hit me till he was satisfied. He believes it's my fault that my mother isn't here anymore. Remember the time I didn't come to school for a week and I told you I went to visit my relatives, it was a lie. That monster hit me till I had internal bleeding, it wasn't very serious but I had to stay at the hospital to recover. The bill was also paid by me, my father didn't even visit once. I needed a father and he wasn't being one. "

" I even thought he felt guilty that's why he didn't come to visit. Turns out he didn't bother at all. I couldn't do anything. I learnt to avoid the same thing happening again, I would observe when he will leave for work or arrive home from work drunk to avoid him. I was very afraid of him"

" On the day before our high school graduation day, he came back home early. I forgot to lock the doors, he walked in " Zhou Qin Yang bit her lips and held back her tears from falling. She shut her eyes and held her breath " He rip my clothes and hit me. After that... "

Zhou Qin Yang open her eyes and look at Lee Jun Ting into his hazel eyes " He raped me. "
