The sun was setting, you and Lingyang were conversing on a bench in Jinzhou when a boy greets you. You two talk for a bit until he leaves, saying goodbye to Lingyang. Lingyang turns back to you to continue your conversation but his smile falters when he sees your eyes shine as you looked at the other boy. So you like him. He thought, glancing at him again.

He’s human… He thought to himself. I’m not… And I’ll never be…

He composes himself and smiles at you again when you turn back to him.
