Friendships restored

ZXB learns she has much more in common with Master Bai than she thought. This conversation was roughing from the Wonton seller but I wish they could have spoken directly one last time. I also think had Master Bai been more open about her true feelings on some things that she and ZXB would have had a much different outcome. ZXB would have probably still left, but she would have been more encouraged to return earlier knowing she would be welcomed. Stubbornness can be a pitfall in understanding. But in spite of bad attitudes and misunderstandings ZXB has taken the place Master Bai always wished for her. It is sad that the wonton seller has left the area, his steadfastness in his love for Master Bai was beautiful. The opera house had no clue why he stayed, so we’re not expecting the shop to be closed. I am thinking he will see the places he wanted to go with Master Bai and show them to her in spirit. And he may even have second chance at love now. I find myself wishing him well no matter where he goes or what he does in future. He is a special person who loves well. CXS surprises LY with a new photo of Haibula on the correct day to find out what happened to LY’s mentor. CXS revealed that his motorcycle training was to assist in making this mission happen. Their friendship is picking up a level as they have better understanding of what motivates the other. Understanding someone’s intent can make a very different perception to what is actually happening. QL’s birthday party has CXS, LY and HX all at same place. It is a bit uncomfortable but they are working through it. The gifts are presented and QL is most appreciative of LY’s gift. He has made her a travel journal for Haibula and she loves it. The guys take a break to chat in bathroom and HX overhears conversation. He unexpectedly leaves the party with no explanation and CXS goes looking for him later. HX is completely unhinged and CXS has no idea why. He doesn’t tell LY the extent of the weirdness because he hasn’t figured out what’s going on with HX. CXS has LY find him similar roads in the area so he can train for the Haibula road. LY shows up with best gift ever as training begins. This cast continues to do a great job in pulling you in to the story.
