By: Sweet Bliss
Thanx for the reviews. And sorry for the long wait. I'm hoping to make it up with this next chapter. Enjoy!

Xianghua and Talim wandered around the market searching for something to buy that would take their minds off of Kilik and Yunsung. The older woman thought she saw Cassandra. Xianghua took another look. The girl had longer blond hair and was a little bit older looking. She could pass as her sister any day. Talim had gone off to look for some food and said that she would be back later. Xianghua went up to the Cassandra look alike. The lady stopped what she was doing to talk to Xianghua.
"Miss, have you seen this girl?" the woman asked, as she handed Xianghua a picture.
"Yes, but what do need with her?" Xianghua responded.
"I'm Sophitia, her sister. Cassandra ran away and we are looking for her." Sophitia said.
"We?" Xianghua inquired.
"Her fiancé, Raphael, and I." Sophitia said pointing to the blonde behind her.
Xianghua started laughing at the man's clothes. He had some formal dressing that made him look rich.
He looked her over and said," You are quite the rude one."
"Sorry. I'll lead you to her." Xianghua said leading the way to Cassandra.
The trio met up with Talim and continued towards Kilik's house. Xianghua had a feeling that Cassandra would be there.
Once arriving Talim said she had to go speak with someone and hurried off. In the clearing they could see Kilik's house. Xianghua told Raphael and Sophitia to wait outside until she motioned for them. They agreed as the brunette entered.
"Hey Xianghua." Kilik greeted with Cassandra close behind.
"Hi Kilik. Cassandra, to show no hard feelings I got you something." Xianghua said cheerfully.
"Well, thanks. What is-" Cassandra stopped as Sophitia stepped into the house.
"What are you doing here Cass?" Sophitia asked her younger sibling.
"Um." Cassandra said trying to find something to say.
"What about Raphael?" Sophitia kept questioning.
Cassandra looked at Kilik's confused expression. It clearly read 'Who's Raphael?'
"No, I didn't forget about my fiancé." Cassandra answered guiltily.
Kilik looked shocked as Xianghua motioned for Raphael. Raphael ran up to Cassandra and knocked Sophitia out of the way. He wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug. Kilik didn't stand around waiting to hear anything else. He left out the back door.
"Kilik!" Cassandra cried after him.
"How many people live here without manners?" Raphael questioned as Sophitia shrugged.
Xianghua also left trying to find the hurt Kilik. She had a guess to where he would be. The brunette ran through the greenery towards the hilltop. She walked the rest of the way to the meditating room. Kilik was standing there hurt and it was all her fault, well the part about bringing Raphael to his house.
"Kilik, I'm sorry." Xianghua whispered.
He turned to face her. She couldn't stand to look at all the pain and hurt he had in his chocolate depths.
He sighed and said, "It's not your fault. You did the right thing."
"No, I didn't. If I would've kept my mouth shut then you wouldn't have been hurt." now Xianghua was crying.
Kilik pulled her closer to him as he said, "But if you did that I would have ended up marrying the wrong one."
"The wrong one?" she inquired."Yes, the wrong one." he said stroking her hair.
Kilik rested his chin on the top of her head as she laid her head on his chest. Storm clouds had appeared and rain started falling creating the perfect scenery for the two. The two stayed there until it started sprinkling a few drops. Xianghua bounded out of the room and started twirling around. Kilik just watched. He never really enjoyed the rain but he sure did love to see Xianghua play in it. Xianghua jumped around in the puddles like she was young again. This was the perfect ending to their friendship's beginning.

Sweet Bliss: Hope you enjoyed that little chapter. Sorry 'bout the shortness. And no this is not the chapter before the last since I left it off with the sentence 'This was a perfect ending to their friendship's beginning.' So that means that they haven't said that they 'loved' each other yet. Next chapter will be about Yunsung and Talim. And remember to read and review. I'm not gonna pester you to review but if you want the next chapter you better do so.
