"So you know." he whispered. "Did you heard it from Andy?" asked the man, his face bearing guilt and a conflicted emotion.
"No, we found it by chance," replied Xiao Yun and Mr. Cheng was kind enough not to ask why or how.
Instead he said, "Don't think too much. Andy too when he first knew, it was around his eighteen birthday. We didn't planned to tell him anything. We didn't want him to feel hurt after knowing he wasn't our son. But despite his sadness when he knew it, he still kept a smile that some times even I as his father felt sorry for him. He had grown up to be a good man and that is also because of you Xiao Yun."
"Me?" Xiao Yun asked, her eyes questioning why which she didn't place to word.
"I guess you didn't know about it. But that boy despite his expression he feel very easily lonely. He wanted to have a little sister or brother, however, my wife after the loss of Adam she unfortunately wasn't able to have her own child again," there was spiteful and sadness when Mr. Cheng had spoken about his wife's condition. He then pulled his smile to say, "But because of your he feels like he has his own sister which make him less lonely."
"Is that so?" she whispered, feeling sympathy to Andy's behalf. All this time until now, what was Andy hiding? She felt the truth was getting closer to her fingers but she was afraid that the truth would create her to loose the people she felt important to her like sand seeping between her fingers.
When they return to the car to go to the old small house near the house which her family previously lived in, Xiao Yun blankly stared at the window of the car. Rain drops trickled down toward the glass creating a haze of coldness.

Winter was about to come and now that she recalled it was also snowing by the time she died. She didn't remember well when but it was around the month of December if her memory didn't failed her. She stared at the rain feeling as though the sky was reflecting her emotions after the sorrowful story.
Wang Li Lei took her shoulders, her eyes when they met was smiling, "It seems that even two children would still be not enough for the house, we can have three or four." He commented for a smile to appear on her lips.
"I think two is still enough. What if our house became too rowdy? But I also think having four is good." she questioned. Her smile growing wider.
"Then we would just need to buy a new house," she laughed, a suitable smile which looked the best on her. Seeing her sober up, he asked, "Are you alright?"
"I don't know, I'm still confused and everyday it had gotten worse, Andy and Adam is the same person and Mrs. Hernely wasn't the best mother. But I don't know if I could ever judge anything with only one side of the story. Now that I think, I really had grown up with Andy not knowing anything he was hiding. That I was oblivious even in my second life," her voice died down and she muttered her words. The truth stung to her.
"That goes the same to me," he said to attain her gaze. "Even though you have gone through many things in the past live I don't know anything, I couldn't because you were in a different place from where I was." his fingers grazed her cheeks softly rubbing.
"Sometimes Xiao Yun, there are things people wants to hide like Andy and no one would be able to know the secrets until the person open their own heart. That's why we should find him, ask him what he is hiding and solve the problem together." Xiao Yun gave a nod, she couldn't agree less to Wang Li Lei. Leaning her head to his shoulder, she felt her confusion fusing to the air.

"Did you see the bottle medicine at the corner of the room where we talked with Mrs. Sophia?" asked Wang Li Lei that had Xiao Yun scrunched her brows and lifted it up.
"Medicine? Is Aunty sick?" she asked, worry laced in her voice. But Mrs. Sophia hadn't say anything like that nor that she looked pale like a sick person.
"Not psychically." He net Xiao Yun's eyes which seemed to as if had caught something but still wasn't sure. "It's a medicine to help one to sleep better. Usually for people who are diagnosed of stress, depression, or PTSD to help them to avoid insomnia which can be caused by stress and worsen their mentality. From the amount of medicine left in the bottle, it seems Mrs. Sophia often drank the medicine. A higher dosage to note." he added.
Wang Li Lei knew well the medicine not because he knew Mrs. Sophia but because long before when he was still in his teens and to a few months before he met Xiao Yun, he had to drink the sleeping medicine to be able to sleep.
Though now he hadn't used it, he knew just from a glance of the medicine bottle that Mrs. Sophia used a higher dosage like when he still wasn't able to cope with the accident which involve his parent's death. It was clear that unlike the smile Mrs. Sophia put on her face, something was eating her alive.
"Sleeping medicine?" Xiao Yun turned her gaze away, her eyes looking down to her shoes. "Do you think it is related to Andy and Mrs. Hernely?"
"I think it is. But rather than Andy I would say it's her fear to Mrs. Hernely. Every time Mrs. Sophia talked about her sister, she seemed scared, angry, and there was envy." the last emotion he said caught something to her ears.
"Why would Mrs. Sophia feel envy to Mrs. Hernely when she was the one who had killed her father?" she asked confused.
Wang Li Lei smiled, his eyes which had looked to the road their car was going to then turned to her to say, "Like you said Xiao Yun, we have only heard the one side of her story. We haven't heard the story of Mrs. Hernely or Andy." and his words made her sank deep to contemplation, question running around her head when she felt queasy.

Tabula Rasa : An Unbound Adventure
It starts as many things do: a clean slate, an empty page. What once was set in stone and wholly writ is gone, and all that's left is the vague notion of absence, a fullness lacking.The feeling of being tetherless, pathless, without direction or responsibility is something many would find terrifying. Others might find it freeing - an opportunity to strike out on new adventures and explore the unknown.Either way, first they have to figure out where they are and how they leave. ====== My first novel on this platform! An avid GameLit/LitRPG fan, I decided to start writing this when I seemed to exhaust all of my options for well reviewed content on the site! Inspiration for the world/general feeling is a mix of Azarinth Healer, Abyssal Road Trip, Winterborn, and the Power of Ten series, with a strong reliance on 3.5 and PF1 frameworks as a scaffold for the world. I see Arc 1 as a Robinson Crusoe style coming to terms scenario, lots of exploration of the System, the MC's options, the island and encounters with the denizens and visitors of the Timeless Isle, with a non-zero amount of introspection around their long term goals. I'll publish as frequently as I'm able but don't have a regular cadence planned at the moment.
