The next day when it's still barely morning, Tian Mo Xing had woken up from her brief night sleep. She yawned and mumbled to herself, "Oh, so much of dreams suring this spring season..." Yet, halfway talking, her lips curved into a slight smile. She clasped her hands and beamed, "I don't mind those heart-melting dreamy moments with 007 anyway, ha!" Giggling to herself, she snuck her way into the kitchen hall, only to stepped back in surprise.

"Ah, how come," she was taken aback.

From a far corner before the stove, 007 turned to face her, also with a certain amount of startledness.

Tian Mo Xing gasped and quicken her steps to rush over to his side, "007! It's only 5 now...Why so early?!"

He replied nonchalantly, "Morning!"

Tian Mo Xing looked down at the sink near his side and it was filled with a number of pans, mixing bowls and dishes. She smiled right away, "Oh, it must be the gift from heaven, our pair of connecting hearts, which causes us to wake up at almost the same time this early early morning..."

He thought about what she said, then elaborated, "I have been up since 3 to be exact..."

She could hardly believe it, "Huh? Then, what did you actually do all this while??"

Tian Mo Xing obviously did not prefer giving a second thought before presenting her question. He turned off the faucet, flashed her a hideous smile, and then turned her around to show what was already on the table. "Have a try," he invited.

Once she set her eyes on the tempting dish, Tian Mo Xing squealed with delight, "Strawberry parfait! Oh, 007, how lovely!!" She hurried over to sit herself before it. Gazing at the mouth-watering specially-prepared breakfast, she displayed a 3 times wider-than-usual smile and deduced, "007, don't tell me you paid an early visit to the supermarket for this?"

He walked over to her, then simply ruffled her hair affectionately before replying, "That's just in your world of imaginations..."

She pouted her lips upon hearing his remark, "Hey, do you have to be this sarcastic?"

He smiled, "Hope you'll like this...Li Xiao Xing..."

"Okay, I understand...thank you," she returned. However, she somehow got a feeling that 007 meant more than what he had actually spoken. She wondered if he was harbouring a hidden implication beneath the surface. Next second when she averted her gaze, there beside the utensils on the table was a little wrapped box. Confused, she inquired, "Is that something...for...?"

Before she could finish her question, he nodded lightly and placed it into her hands, "Specially for this adorable girl seated right infront of me..."

Tian Mo Xing was overwhelmed with wonder as 007 opened the gift for her. The moment she saw what was inside, she looked up at 007, "Really for me??"

He assured her, "Certainly..." He took out the dazzling item and slowly put it on for her.

As he helped her wear it, Tian Mo Xing felt the glittering chain around her neck.

Flashback...

Seeing Uncle Remus seated with a book in hand by his study desk, Tian Mo Xing gasped, "Sorry Uncle Remus, I didn't mean to distract you...Sorry..." She quickly turned about to leave but he stopped her.

"Tian Mo Xing...It's alright, just stay and I have something for ya," he told and got up from his chair.

She was surprised but still, slowly walked up to him.

Uncle Remus then unlocked one of his chest drawers and took out something from inside. It was actually a bright glistening necklace with a lovely red-orange coloured pendant.

Tian Mo Xing was amazed. He held it towards her and explained, "This Carnelian gemstone necklace, I think, is time to leave it to your care..."

End of Flashback...

007 was quick to notice Tian Mo Xing's hesitance, "Did I give you too much of a surprise??"

She turned to him, "007, is this...?"

He added for her, "Carnelian gemstone pendant..."

Tian Mo Xing wavered upon being told the familiar piece of jewelry, "I see...where did you get it from?"

He smiled and swept her long silky tresses to the back, "I'll let you know when the time is right..."

She responded with an irresolute smile, even though she gathered that he could be clearly aware of her mixed reactions, "Thank you, 007..."

He moved close to plant a tender kiss on her forehead, "I'm glad..."
