A lifetime is as short as a meteor sliding through the sky. If I don't seize the right moment to fight for the person I love, I shall never get a second chance. So I want to let you know with this pledge that for my whole life, I have never regretted falling in love with you, and that you are the one who has made my life full and rich...
On the return flight to Dragon Island, the atmosphere was awkward and weird on the plane.
For the whole trip, Wing and Molly had been busily whispering over something. It seemed they were conspiring and planning something in secret.
Before they had even boarded the plane, they had ordered Weston and Brian to sit in the front seats which were quite a distance from them. It was as if they had done so on purpose to avoid letting the men overhear their girls' talk.
With a negligent and indifferent look on his face, Brian took out a business magazine from the seat pouch and started reading it as if he had no interest in what Wing and Molly could possibly have to talk about.
Unlike his ever calmness, Weston turned his head from time to time, and stared at the two women and tried to get a hint of their conversation. It fascinated him that Wing was so absorbed in her discussion with Molly, and he wondered at Molly's puzzled and captivated expression as well. Unable to restrain himself further, Weston spoke to Brian in a low voice, "The girls has been whispering the whole trip. I wonder what has so fascinated them?"
Glancing quickly up at the girls, Brian shrugged and continued reading his magazine. "There is nothing about Molly which would fascinate Wing more than our coming wedding. They are probably talking about the ceremony and reception. Otherwise, what else would it be?" he said in a level voice, his attitude casual and reserved as ever.
Weston grinned as he turned to Brian with a pitiful look on his face. "Wing has been waiting her whole life for the day that you finally marry Molly. Now that the days are finally counting down, she would of course be thrilled. I'm sure that she has so much to share with Molly," he said.
Brian raised his eyes from the magazine. From the beginning, the magazine had actually not drawn his interest at all. He pushed it back in the seat pouch and leaned back in his chair. With his eyes staring pensively ahead, he replied in a slow and soft voice, "As long as they are happy, we don't really mind whatever drama they are scheming about right now, do we?"
