"Jasmine, don't you understand what kind of person I am? I promise I'm not lying this time, and I guarantee I won't lie to you again. The president may scold people and is harsh with me usually, but in work, he's truly treated me like a mentor and friend. I'm very grateful to him and want to help him with all kinds of matters. He's drunk now and not in a good state..."
"Kade." Jasmine Yale interrupted him, "Has anyone ever told you, you're quite suited to be a public speaker?"
"..."
"Tell isn't far from me, I'll take a taxi over."
On the other end, Kade was overjoyed: "Thank you, Jasmine, thank you."
"On your behalf." Jasmine Yale said lightly.
"Alright, then..."
Without waiting for Kade to finish, Jasmine Yale hung up the phone.
She looked up at the distance.
In the distance were tall buildings, vehicles, neon lights, and an unseen remoteness...
Leaves drifted down and turned to mud.
Lights flickering in her pupils, the glimmers like dancing flames, endlessly enduring.
