4th Mdam Gu suggested in a solemn voice. "Should we not go to see Bojing? He should not be too depressed. "

This was when Mrs Gu got to her sense. She nodded frantically and walked towards Gu Bojings house but was quickly stopped by Bolin.

"Mom I dont think now is the right time for that. Brother is...he is not in the right mind for little talks now. He is yet to even process the whole issue." which was true, Bojing was yet to process what had happened although he had been directly involved while interacting with Xiao Ai, he still did not want to believe it would happen.

He then turned to 4th Mdam Gu. "Aunt, brother deserves to be sad and depressed over the loss of big sister in law. If he doesnt let all the emotions out, I am afraid he might have to see a psychiatrist."

4th Mdam was deeply hurt that Bolin called her Aunt when she was his biological mother but she was starting to get used to the fact that the young man no longer saw her as his mother.

In truth all her children were under the custody of Mr Gu which was why they neared the Gu familys name. Although it was Bolin who had been adopted into the family and acted like their son, her other two sons were simply irresponsible. They did not for the fact of bearing the Gu family name become good citizens or sons. Instead they became more stupid. Little Guy just went and come like the wind. If Xiao Ai had not hosted the game night, it would be four tears since she last saw him.

And he is her son.

Bolin. He was an off topic. That one had already disowned her in his mind. She swept an eye across his frame again and say how tattered and unkempt he look. The look of serious worry on his face towards Mrs Gu made her jealous but she knew it was her fault. It was her who pushed them all away. She was cock sure, Bolin ahd severed all ties with her already. The child was gentle and soft hearted unlike his other brothers but Bolin was the most stubborn of all. Once he makes up his mind about something, he would be sure to stick to it till the end.

Inside, Gu Bojing went straight to the bedroom and stared at the bed for a long time. This time all his fears was for Xiao Ai to not leave him for another man. What he did not realise then was that she could leave him forever and he would have no chance of seeing her gain. Even as he got into the house, he already knew that something was off. Xiao Ais absence in the house he had spent years in affected him more because he was starting to get used the fact of having a wife. Like a graveyard everywhere was awfully quiet. As if the cricket were mocking him, they also did not make a sound.

It was not as if Xiao Ai made much noise whenever she was in the house. Infact he would always be the first to get home despite being a busy person because he never wanted her to come home to an empty presence.

"Mrs Gu..." he called hoping that someone would reply. Hoping that she had sneaked out of the water and came home to surprise him.

If it were just any other night, they would have dinner. Have a little chat, he would go to working on his documents and Xiao Ai would watch her cartoon before coming to the study to bother him.

Just last week, they had a discussion on Xiao Ais choice of cartoons. She loved to watch things that were meant for little kids. Cartoons that toddlers would be happy about, Xiao Ai would also be happy about them.

"I feel like I am nurturing a little toddler." He told her while she was dancing to the song of a particular cartoon.

She was wearing a rabbit onesie and she pouted her lips and flapped the ears. Then she said to him in a cute manner. "Hubby bought a cute little bunny. The best bunny!" The way she spoke was excatly like one of those cartoons she watches.

"But...the bunny eats too much and bothers me a lot. What will bunny do to make up for this?"

Since she was in a standing position, she bent forward a little and unzipped the front of her onesie to show him a view of her chest.

"Bunny can bribe you like this, dearest hubby."

Gu Bojing hurdled her on his shoulder and went up the stairs. Xiao AI squealed in excitement and complained.

"Hubby, you cant treat bunny like this. Bunny doesn't want to..." he gave her a quick smack in her bum and she squealed again. "Bad hubby. "

The night went well with Xiao ai nagging that he had tired her out as usual and he got to pile work up more because he was too busy with the young lady.

Gu Bojing smiled bitterly and slumped against the wall. A tear rolled down his face and he sighed.

"This was not my plan.."

Just the last night, when he had questioned her on how she fixed Bolins A.C

Xiao Ai said. "Hubby, do you think I am the sort of person that will be born again and still not poke a cute when I see one?"

It was at that time he knew that Xiao Ai had done something that would annoy Bolin again.

Did he not still see her this morning? Who would have thought that, that would be the last time? Perhaps that was why she asked him such weird question this morning.

During breakfast, Xiao Ai had asked. "Hubby, if I leave you, what would you do?"

Gu Bojing dropped his chop stick and stared at her for some time before throwing her back the question. "If I leave you, what would you do?"

That morning he simply wanted to know the kind of space he occupied in her heart.
