Summary
of MG2 Episode 24:
San Cai leaves her home with her backpack and meets Qing He and Mimi outside.
Qing He (calling out): “San Cai!”
Mimi: “San Cai Senior!”
Qing He: “I’ll help you carry your bag.”
San Cai: “That’s ok. Thank you.”
Qing He (trying to take San Cai’s bag): “No problem. No problem. I’ll help you.”
San Cai (pushing his hand away lightly): “It’s ok, Qing He. Why did you plan this so suddenly? I couldn’t even remember where I put last year’s swimsuit. So I can only borrow my mom’s.”
Mimi: “San Cai Senior, you didn’t go swimming all summer long?”
San Cai nods her head.
Qing He: “Nonsense. She’s been looking for Dao Ming Si’s memories all summer long. Where’s the time for swimming?”
San Cai (forcing a smile): “Right. Summer is almost over. So we have to make full use of the end of this summer.”
Mimi nods her head in agreement.
Qing He: “Right. Today, we have to make up for this year’s summer!”
Mimi and San Cai both smile at him.
Qing He: “Let’s go!”
Ye Sha and Dao Ming Si are standing outside of the pool area and waiting.
Ye Sha (after giving a big stretch): “Why isn’t San Cai here yet?”
Dao Ming Si (quietly): “If I was her, then I wouldn’t come.”
Ye Sha (looks over at him): “Why?”
Dao Ming Si looks away and shrugs his shoulders.
Ye Sha (tugs at his sleeve): “I’m asking you again, why?”
At this moment, San Cai, Mimi and Qing He shows up.
Qing He (calling out): “Dao Ming Si!”
Qing He runs over with Mimi running behind and they both stop in front of Ye Sha and Dao Ming Si.
Dao Ming Si: “Ba fa hu de er zi, what are you doing here?”
Ye Sha (speaking to Dao Ming Si): “Everybody is friends, so why can’t we all come out and have fun?”
San Cai slowly walks over and stands next to Qing He, nodding at Ye Sha slightly.
Ye Sha sees San Cai and waves at her, smiling. Ye Sha then nudge Dao Ming Si and tilt her head toward San Cai.
Dao Ming Si (hesitantly, without looking directly at San Cai): “Hi… San Cai.”
San Cai (equally hesitant replies): “Hi.”
Qing He (waving and smiling): “Hi Dao Ming Si!”
Mimi: “Hi Senior!”
Qing He (to Ye Sha): “Hi, Ye Sha Princess.”
Mimi: “Hi, Ye Sha Princess.”
Ye Sha (smiling widely): “Hi!”
Dao Ming Si (irritated): “Are we done with Hi-ing?”
Everybody looks on and there was an awkward silence for a few seconds.
Dao Ming Si: “I’m going in first.”
He turns and starts walking away. Ye Sha and San Cai walking next to each other, slowly follows with Qing He and Mimi walking behind them.
Ye Sha (walking next to San Cai): “He’s like that when there’s a lot of people.”
San Cai: “I know.”
Ye Sha: “Right. You do know. (pause) Then be a little happier.”
San Cai smiles at her and nods her head.
Qing He (smiling secretively to Mimi): “And now it’s all up to us.”
Mimi (smiling back): “Yes, Qing He Senior.”
In the indoor pool, Dao Ming Si wears a white bathrobe, sitting by the pool, with both legs in the water. Mimi and Qing He, with a towel wrapped around his shoulders, walks up to the sitting Dao Ming Si.
Qing He (kneeling down beside Dao Ming Si): “Dao Ming Si. How about it? Haven’t hang out with you for a long time. (smiling) Do you have any special feelings?”
Dao Ming Si smiles and doesn’t answer.
Qing He: “Feels very familiar, right? Very familiar, right?! (no answer) Do you know there’s a story with I and you and this swimming pool?”
He thinks very hard before talking again.
Qing He: “First, you have to imagine this scene. There is this luxurious cruise. Inside there is us, F5 and San Cai and also other Ying De classmates. Everyday we dance, eat seafood. Oh, it was so much fun! (Dao Ming Si, with a bored expression on his face, turns to the side.) Until there is this one night…”
Dao Ming Si (stands up angrily): “Have you said enough?”
Qing He (excited): “Are you mad? (He quickly stands up also.) If you are mad then that’s right! You could kick me into the water. (Dao Ming Si looks away annoyed.) Hurry up, hurry up!”
Dao Ming Si: “Are you this irritating in the past also?”
Qing He: “Right, right, right. Hurry up and kick me into the water! Please!”
Dao Ming Si decided that he has had enough, so he takes off his robe, throwing it to the side and jumps into the pool.
Qing He (calling after Dao Ming Si): “Dao Ming Si! Wait a minute, I’ll race you! (He throws his towel at Mimi.) The loser is a dog!”
Then he jumps into the pool and swims after Dao Ming Si.
Mimi (taking the towel off her face, cheers on excitedly): “Qing He Senior, jia you! Jia you!”
In another area, San Cai is sitting in a chair with a glass of water in the table in front of her and staring off into space. Ye Sha walks over with two Pepsi’s in her hand and sits down next to San Cai.
San Cai (breaking out of her stupor, smiles at Ye Sha): “Why aren’t you going to swim?”
Ye Sha (smiling back): “Why are you not going to swim?”
San Cai (with a sheepish smile): “I actually don’t know how to swim. (looking out the window) The scenery over here is very good, so I came out and rest a bit.”
Ye Sha (nods her head in agreement, and opens a can of Pepsi): “Right. Me too.”
San Cai grows silent again and goes back to staring out the window.
Ye Sha: “What happened between you and Ah Si?”
San Cai (looks back and smiles lightly): “Nothing.”
Ye Sha smiles and takes a sip of her soda.
San Cai (reaching into her pocket and brings out Ye Sha’s cell phone): “Here’s your cell phone.”
Ye Sha (stares at the cell phone on the table): “Did it bring you trouble?”
San Cai (shakes her head): “No. Actually it is myself. I have decided to give up.”
Ye Sha (looks up in surprise): “San Cai.”
San Cai looks down and out the window again without answering.
Back by the swimming pool, Mimi is jumping along the side of the pool and cheering as Qing He swims toward the other end of the pool. Dao Ming Si was swimming along the surface just fine when he suddenly starts diving deep into the pool. As he was deep underneath the surface of the pool, he noticed something glittering at the bottom of the floor of the pool. Therefore, he swims toward it with his left hand outstretched. As he reaches his hand out to pick up the shimmering coin, an image of when he was reaching out his hand to look for the fallen meteor ring in the car floated through his head. He stops diving toward the coin and brings back his outstretched hand while his right hand reaches for his head. Then the image of the car flipping over onto its back and sliding toward the lamp post on the street floated into his head. Dao Ming Si’s face is filled with pain once again and he holds onto his head with both of his hands, while he turns around in the water. Due to the pain, he suddenly loses conscious in the water and starts floating to the surface.
Meanwhile, Qing He has already swum to the other end of the pool. He had dragged himself out of the water and lay face down on the tile and panting out of breath. Mimi quickly takes the towel from around her neck and runs toward Qing He with it.
Mimi (placing the towel on Qing He): “Qing He Senior! Qing He Senior!”
Qing He (gasping for breath): “I can’t… (panting) You don’t have to tell me. I let Dao Ming Si won again.”
Mimi: “No, Qing He Senior! You are the first one back and won this race.”
Qing He (surprised): “HUH?! I won? How can that be? (He pushes himself to a sitting position.) YA! Chan Qing He won! Dao Ming Si finally lost! YA!”
Mimi (massaging Qing He’s shoulders): “Qing He Senior is so great!”
Qing He: “Mimi, but you don’t have to so blindly worship me. Even though I know that my swimming skills are very good, but it’s all because Dao Ming Si’s strength is too inferior. (looks at Mimi) Where’s Dao Ming Si?”
Mimi: “Eh? Where’s Dao Ming Si Senior?”
She looks around then stares out in the water and sees a shadow floating.
Mimi (cries out in alarm): “AH!!! It looks like Dao Ming Si Senior is drowning! Help! Help!”
She quickly stands up and in the process shoves Qing He back into the pool. Then Mimi ran out of the pool area, all the while shouting, “HELP! HELP!”
Back in the area where San Cai and Ye Sha are, San Cai is standing by the window and staring out while Ye Sha is sitting at the table.
San Cai (turning from the window to look at Ye Sha): “I even go as far as to think that Dao Ming Si could have regained his memories already. But he discovered that the one that he loves is still you, so he would rather that he didn’t have this past. If that is really the case, then my insistent to him would be too selfish, no? (pause) Therefore, I should give up.”
Ye Sha: “You can’t give up! (She gets up and walks over to San Cai.) Someone who gives up so easily is not San Cai.”
San Cai (quietly): “Ye Sha. I’m very tired. Have no more strength.”
Ye Sha (puts a hand on San Cai’s arm): “Hang in there for a little bit more. If you don’t stay by his side, then when I leave…”
Mimi frantically runs in and shouts, “Help! Help!”
She runs over to San Cai and Ye Sha out of breath.
Mimi (panting): “Dao Ming Si Senior, (she starts pointing toward the pool area) he… he…”
She couldn’t get the words out and just kept pointing and then they all ran out back to the pool area.
Ye Sha ran ahead with San Cai and Mimi following behind. When Ye Sha saw Dao Ming Si in the water, she cried out his name: “Ah Sing!”
San Cai (seeing the figure in the pool): “Dao Ming Si!”
Ye Sha takes off her jacket and jumps into the pool. She swam toward where Dao Ming Si is unconscious and faced down in the water. When she got to him, she grabbed hold of his hand and started pulling him back toward the side of the pool while San Cai and Mimi could only stand there and watch on anxiously.
Once Ye Sha got Dao Ming Si out of the water, she started CPR on him.
Mimi (on the side, looks at Qing He anxiously): “Qing He Senior, is Dao Ming Si Senior going to die?”
Ye Sha (pumping Dao Ming Si’s chest, crying and shouts at Mimi harshly): “Don’t be talking any nonsense! (Mimi jumps a little in surprise at the outburst from her and Ye Sha goes back to trying to revive Dao Ming Si.) Ah Sing, wake up! I don’t like to see you like this! Ah Sing!”
San Cai is anxiously kneeling down next to Ye Sha, looking on at Dao Ming Si with an expression like she is going to start crying. As she looks on at Ye Sha, so frantically trying to save Dao Ming Si, San Cai seems to notice something from Ye Sha’s actions. At this moment, Dao Ming Si wakes up and starts coughing up water.
San Cai: “Dao Ming Si!”
Qing He: “Dao Ming Si!”
Ye Sha: “Ah Sing!”
Dao Ming Si gasps for breath and opens up his eyes for a brief moment.
Ye Sha: “Ah Sing!”
Mimi (quietly): “Dao Ming Si Senior.”
Then Dao Ming Si loses consciousness again.
Qing He / Mimi (loudly): “Dao Ming Si! / Dao Ming Si Senior!”
Ye Sha: “Ah Sing!”
The next sounds that are heard are the noise that the ambulance vehicles make.
Sitting with both her feet up on the chair and her arms wrapped around her legs, Ye Sha is waiting outside of the Operation Room area. San Cai walks over and hands her a cup of water. Ye Sha takes it and quickly takes a sip. San Cai sits down next to Ye Sha and puts an arm around her, trying to give her some comfort.
Ye Sha: “Life is so fragile. Ah Sing is also so fragile. (pause) It doesn’t have to be that I leave. Maybe he will be the one to leave first. (pause) Life can be lost with a blink of an eye. And Ah Sing can also be gone in a blink of an eye.”
San Cai: “That won’t be the case. Do you know? Dao Ming Si’s health is very mysterious. His recovery ability is the same as a little dog’s. (smiling) When I said that he was like a little dog in the past, I made F3 laugh so hard. (Ye Sha slowly lay her head on San Cai’s shoulder.) I also made Dao Ming Si so mad. (pause) But he really is like a little dog. He will get better very soon, so you don’t have to worry. We can only concentrate on praying for him.”
Ye Sha raises her head slowly from San Cai’s shoulder and then hands San Cai her cup. Then she gets off the chair and kneels down on the floor facing the chair.
Ye Sha (looking at San Cai): “Let’s both pray together.”
San Cai nods her head, puts the cup on the chair next to her and kneels down on the floor also.
Ye Sha (closing her eyes, with her hands clasped together): “God, (San Cai slowly looks over at Ye Sha.) please give me another chance. And also give Ah Sing another chance.”
While they were both on their knees praying, Dao Ming Feng walks up to them.
Dao Ming Feng (looking at San Cai and Ye Sha’s back): “Where’s Ah Si?”
San Cai turns around and gets up on her feet. Ye Sha slowly gets up and San Cai and Dao Ming Feng reaches out a hand to help her.
Ye Sha: “He’s still getting emergency aid.”
Dao Ming Feng turns to stare at San Cai and San Cai quickly lowers her head to look at the floor.
Dao Ming Feng (with hatred in her eyes): “Is it all your idea? How many times do you have to hurt Ah Si before you are satisfied?”
Qing He (walking up to where they are all standing): “It was my idea. (arms crossed) Not San Cai’s idea. Can you please stop blaming her?”
Dao Ming Feng (turns around to look at Qing He): “Each and every time, you guys get together and pressure Ah Si. (turns back to San Cai, raising her voice) Can you guys not see that he has been through enough?! (staring straight at San Cai) Dong San Cai! (turns her face to the side) Chan Qing He! (looks back at San Cai) If anything happens to Ah Si… I will let you both know the consequences!”
At this moment, the light in the operation room goes off and the doctor comes out. Dao Ming Feng turns and walks up to the doctor.
Dao Ming Feng: “Doctor.”
Doctor: “There is no more danger to his life. But he is still in a state of unconsciousness.”
Later, Dao Ming Feng walks out of a room with a doctor and they continued to walk while the doctor updates Dao Ming Feng on Dao Ming Si’s condition.
Doctor: “The blood clot in your son’s head is confirmed that it is gradually disappearing. But the sudden critical shock this time, the impact that it will have on his recovering his memories, whether it will assist him or obstruct him, we’ll have the answer after he wakes up.”
Dao Ming Feng (stops walking): “Thank you.”
Doctor: “You’re welcome.”
The doctor walks away and Dao Ming Feng slowly continues to walk down the hall.
Dao Ming Feng (thinking to herself): “It doesn’t matter who he has in his memory… in the future of his life, there can only exist a Ye Sha.”
Back in Dao Ming Si’s patient room, Ye Sha is helping him to cover his blanket.
Ye Sha (looking down at the unconscious Dao Ming Si, thinks in her head): “Ah Sing. Hurry up and wake up, ok? I really have something very important to tell you.”
After staring at Dao Ming Si for a few more seconds, she turns and walks out of the room. As she silently closes the door and turns around, she jumps in surprise as she sees Dao Ming Feng standing quietly right behind her.
Dao Ming Feng: “Why won’t you tell the truth all this time?”
Ye Sha: “What does that mean?”
Dao Ming Feng: “You love Ah Si! (Ye Sha turns her head away from Dao Ming Feng’s stare.) You really love him, but why do you pretend that you don’t love? (pause) Because of San Cai? (Ye Sha looks up at her.) I used to feel that it was not fair to San Cai but… forcing Ah Si to return to San Cai’s side… is that being fair to Ah Si? To love bravely is not called selfish. Pushing back and forth is called foolish! You guys are still young. In front of your eyes, there is still a whole future ahead. (pause) Would rather sacrifice… betraying one self’s own idea. You think that this is the greatest love of all?! (pause) Now, you should understand that tomorrow might not always come. (pause) But if you don’t say it out today, then tomorrow can become a regret. (pause) Ye Sha, (She turns to look at Dao Ming Feng and sees the unshed tears that are shimmering in Dao Ming Feng’s eyes.) I only have this one son. Don’t torture him anymore. (pause) I’m begging you… please cherish him. (pause, trying to regain her composure) Think it over carefully.”
After saying all this, Dao Ming Feng slowly walks away and Ye Sha just stood there looking at her back.
Under the warm sunlight peaking through from the curtains, Dao Ming Si slowly wakes up. Opening his eyes, he looks at the window with the sunlight streaming through. As the glare is too strong, he closes his eyes again and turns his head slightly away. Slowly opening his eyes again, Dao Ming Si’s memories starts pouring back: The old warehouse where all the guys were beating him up with San Cai calling out for them to stop on the side… in Dao Ming Si’s room after being bullied by Ying De’s students and saved by Dao Ming Si, where he told he that he likes her, really likes her and then kissed her on his bed… the dark pouring, rainy night, when San Cai left Dao Ming mansion and Dao Ming Si asks if she had ever loved him, where her reply was “Actually, I have never loved you. If I really loved you, then I wouldn’t be leaving like this now”… the time when he went to the pastry shop with the basketball looking for Ye Sha and met up with San Cai for the first time after his accident… the scene where, after getting separated with San Cai in Barcelona, he finally found her and his crying out her name when he sees her… the time when he was chasing the bus that San Cai was on… the night when San Cai was forced out of her house by her landlord and Dao Ming Si finally found her back at the place where he originally slapped her. As he remembers, San Cai’s name being called out over and over in his head, he slowly stretches out his right hand to touch the figure that looks like San Cai that is sleeping beside his bed. As his hand stretches out to touch San Cai’s head, the image of San Cai turns into Ye Sha’s face instead.
Ye Sha (waking up): “Ah Sing! You’re awake!”
Dao Ming Si stares at her and blinks his eyes a couple of times. Just then there was a knock on the door and San Cai opens up the door.
Ye Sha (calling out happily): “San Cai! Ah Sing has woke up!”
San Cai looks over at Dao Ming Si with a very happy smile on her face while Dao Ming Si just stares at her in shock.
San Cai (smiling): “Congratulations Dao Ming Si!”
Seeing San Cai’s face, Dao Ming Si brings up his hand and covers his eyes.
Ye Sha: “Do you want to drink some water? Or eat anything? Or…”
Dao Ming Si (with pain on his face): “No, no… I don’t want anything. Can you two please go out and let me rest a bit, ok?”
He closes his eyes and uses his hand to hide his face. Ye Sha looks over at San Cai and San Cai smiles lightly. Ye Sha slowly gets up from her seat and walks over to San Cai. Dao Ming Si turns over to his side, hiding from Ye Sha and San Cai. After they left the room, Dao Ming Si slowly takes his hand away and looks on with confusion written all over his face.
Ye Sha and San Cai comes out of Dao Ming Si’s room and Ye Sha slowly closes the door.
Ye Sha (facing San Cai): “San Cai, there’s something I want to say to you.”
San Cai: “Say it.”
Ye Sha (hesitating): “Um, let’s talk some other time.”
San Cai (nods her head): “Ok. It’s been a tiring day. Your face looks very pale. Since Dao Ming Si is awake now, (reaches out a hand to hold onto Ye Sha’s wrist) you go home and get some rest.”
Ye Sha (resting her head on San Cai’s shoulder): “There’s no need.”
San Cai: “Anyway, they are coming over, so don’t worry. Ok… go rest a bit then come back. Anyway, Dao Ming Si also needs to rest.”
Ye Sha (standing up straight): “Ok, then. I’ll leave first.”
San Cai: “Don’t worry.”
Ye Sha: “I’ll be back soon.”
San Cai: “See you later.”
Ye Sha waves at San Cai and walks away. After Ye Sha leaves, San Cai turns to look at Dao Ming Si’s door and slowly walks over to stand in front of the door. As she stood there, her hand slowly reaches out and she places it on the door knob. Inside the room, Dao Ming Si is sitting up on the bed and staring at the door. He slowly gets up and walks over to stand in front of the door. Outside the room, San Cai lets go of the door knob and stood there staring at the door.
Mei Zuo (quietly, from behind): “Fell asleep?”
San Cai turns around quickly in surprise to find F3 standing right behind her.
San Cai: “Why didn’t you guys say anything? (holds a hand up to her heart) Gave me such a fright!”
Mei Zuo (quietly): “You’re still blaming us? We’ve been standing here for half a day. You, silly, didn’t even move an inch.”
Xi Men: “Ye Sha said that Ah Si is awake.”
San Cai: “You guys saw Ye Sha?”
Xi Men: “Just met her in front of the elevators.”
San Cai: “The doctor said that once he wakes up, then he’s ok. But he is still resting now. And said that he wants to be alone.”
Mei Zuo: “This buddy! After such a short time, with one incident after another, he’s doing all these things to make us worry. And now he wants to be left alone?”
Xi Men: “There’s no other way. Being sick is the biggest deal. It seems like we can only stand here and wait for Dao Ming Si Master’s beck. (turns to Mei Zuo) Mei Zuo, let’s go to some nearby place and buy some fruits first.”
Mei Zuo: “Fine. Then Lei, we’ll leave Dao Ming Si Master for you.”
Lei nods his head.
Xi Men (waves at San Cai): “See you later. Bye bye.”
San Cai waves back and Xi Men and Mei Zuo walks away.
After they left, Lei accompanies San Cai around the corner of the hall to find a place to sit. San Cai sits down and with a big sigh of breath. Lei touches her head before sitting on the bench.
Lei: “What’s wrong? (pause) Qing He got in contact with us. He seems to be blaming himself. (pause) This is the first time that I’ve heard him say something this clearly.”
San Cai: “It’s a good thing that he’s awake.”
Lei: “With Ah Si’s swimming skills, why would he have drowned?”
San Cai: “It could be that he has not been in a good mood these past couple of days.”
Lei: “Why?”
San Cai: “I don’t know. He seems to be… (pause) Forget it. Ye Sha is beside him, so he’ll be better very soon.”
She rubs her neck with a very tired look.
San Cai: “I really want to go on a vacation.”
Lei (looks at her, smiling): “Hard working San Cai would also want to go on a vacation?”
San Cai (smiling): “Summer is almost over. The beach… will soon become very lonely.”
She leans back to the wall and sighs deeply. Lei looks over at San Cai’s sad and tired face.
Lei: “Wait for me.”
He gets up and walks over to the nurse by the desk. San Cai turns to look at him and then leans back and stares off again. Lei comes back and sits down with a paper and pen.
Lei: “Hey, what kind of sea would you want?”
San Cai (sees the paper and pen and smiles): “I want… wave after waves… very slow… very gentle... that kind of a sea.”
Lei (drawing on the paper): “What about the sun?”
San Cai (thinking with a big smile on her face): “Sun… it would be best if it’s the sun at sunset.”
Lei (finishes drawing the sun): “Done.”
He holds the paper up for San Cai to see and San Cai smiles happily at it.
San Cai: “Sign your name.”
Lei: “Orh.”
He signs his name with San Cai looking on with a smile on her face. Then he hands the paper back to San Cai and San Cai takes it with a wide smile.
San Cai: “Thank you.”
She holds it at arms length and continues looking at it and smiling.
Lei: “Then can I ask you something?”
San Cai puts down the drawing and looks over at Lei with a serious look.
Lei: “Can you go with me to eat something?”
San Cai smiles and nods her head and they both get up and walk away.
Back at Dao Ming mansion, Ye Sha is in her room on her bed. Sha Ge is there with Ye Sha and has his arms wrapped around her, comforting her.
Ye Sha (with her head on his shoulder): “Ah Si was almost gone… almost… disappeared from this world before me.”
Sha Ge (holding Ye Sha at arm’s length and looks at her face): “Good thing, (He helps Ye Sha to slowly lay back on the bed.) God, Buddha, Allah, blessed and protected him.”
Ye Sha (mumbling): “Thank, Lord, God, Buddha, Allah. Sha Ge, why can’t I love Ah Sing properly?”
Sha Ge: “You’re asking me? (pause) I want to ask you!”
Ye Sha (mumbling with her eyes closed): “Is it because I’m too sleepy? I can’t think of why I can’t love him. (breathes deeply) Why?”
Sha Ge: “Maybe it’s because God is envious of Ah Sing and doesn’t want to leave such a cute angel by his side.”
He looks at Ye Sha and sees that she has fallen asleep, so he quietly gets up from the bed and fusses around with her blanket. After a couple of minutes of fussing, Ye Sha suddenly pops up to a sitting position.
Ye Sha (urgently): “What time is it? How long have I slept?”
Sha Ge: “You only just laid down for 5 minutes!”
Ye Sha (kicking the blanket away): “That can’t be! I must have slept for a long time, so that’s why I’m so energetic now.”
Sha Ge: “No…”
Ye Sha: “I have to go to the hospital.”
Sha Ge: “You can’t go to the hospital. You still haven’t slept!”
Ye Sha: “I’m very energetic! I can even run a marathon. (She gets out of bed.) I’m going to the hospital!”
Sha Ge (grabs her arm): “You can’t!”
Ye Sha: “I’m going to see Ah Sing. I’m going now!”
Sha Ge: “You can’t!”
Ye Sha: “I have to go!”
Sha Ge: “You can’t then you can’t!”
Ye Sha: “I’m going right now to tell him that I love him! (She throws his hand off her arm.) Let go!”
She grabs her clothes from the chair and hurriedly walks past Sha Ge, who’s standing there like a statue.
Ye Sha: “Out of my way, out of my way.”
Sha Ge (looks after her): “Hey, you are so amusing!”
Ye Sha (calling out from the bathroom): “Hahaha.”
Sha Ge stood next to the bed and started laughing his head off.
Back at the hospital, F3 is walking down the hall toward Dao Ming Si’s room.
Mei Zuo: “Eh, the door’s open.”
Xi Men: “He wants to see people now?”
As they got near the room, Ye Sha quickly rushes out.
Ye Sha: “Ah Sing is missing!”
F3 is shock and Mei Zuo quickly goes in and looks, while Ye Sha starts running down the hall. Mei Zuo comes back out and F3 runs after Ye Sha calling out her name.
Dao Ming Si is sitting outside in the balcony area of Grandma’s house, holding onto a coconut lantern.
Dao Ming Si (thinking in his head while looking at the coconut): “Her expression while standing in front of Sheng Jia Tang, is as silly as yours. A very cute silliness. You wouldn’t be able to help but want to scold her stupid. She would of course be very mad. (image of San Cai smiling at Dao Ming Si in front of the church in Barcelona) When she moves her head, her long hair would be flowing about. There’s a powdery smell. (image of Ye Sha smiling at Dao Ming Si when they were standing on the rooftop in Barcelona looking up at the stars) Her smell is different. It’s the smell of the sun. When she looks up at the stars, she would also brighten up. This is Ye Sha. This is San Cai. I have a San Cai. After waking up from a sleep, I also have a Ye Sha. This is a really big joke. (to the coconut) Even you are laughing at me. (he tosses the coconut away in anger.) You don’t have to deny it. I can hear it. I won’t blame you. If I was you, I would also laugh. Too bad I’m not you. So… I want to cry.”
San Cai arrives at the hospital room and walks in to find an empty bed and room. She goes to knock on the bathroom door and was about to look in when the nurse walks in.
Nurse: “Miss, are you looking for someone?”
San Cai (points to the bed): “He… not sure where he went to.”
The nurse opens the bathroom door and looks in and didn’t find anyone.
Nurse: ‘I’m going to report it.”
The nurse walks out and San Cai slowly walks over to the bed. She picks up Dao Ming Si’s pajamas and sat on the bed staring at it. After a couple of seconds, she leaves it on the bed and walks out of the room.
Meanwhile, Ye Sha is looking for Dao Ming Si in the streets. She passes by a grocery stand and sees the coconuts. Then she rushes back to the apartment that she and Dao Ming Si stayed in when they first arrived in Taiwan. She couldn’t see Dao Ming Si there so she looks around the apartment. She stood in front of the map that she drew of Taipei on the wall and stars at it for a while.
Later that night, Dao Ming Si is slowly walking down the driveway back to the mansion. Halfway there, he stops walking and stood there thinking. At this moment, Ye Sha runs up to him from behind.
Ye Sha (calling out): “Ah Sing! Ah Sing!”
Dao Ming Si turns to look at her, with an expression like he didn’t really want to face her at this moment.
Ye Sha (stopping in front of Dao Ming Si): “Ah Sing, you idiot! You are so baffling! You…”
She wraps her arms around him to hug him tightly before he could even utter a word. Just then, San Cai is walking up the driveway and she stops in her tracks when she sees Ye Sha with Dao Ming Si. Just as she is about to call out to them, she sees Ye Sha pull back and kiss Dao Ming Si. San Cai stood rooted to the ground and stares at the scene in front of her in shock. After staring for a few more seconds, she looks away with a stunned expression and slowly backs up from the scene of Dao Ming Si and Ye Sha locked in a kiss together. She quickly turns around and runs away from them. The moment that she runs away, Dao Ming Si breaks away from the kiss and pulls Ye Sha away from him.
Dao Ming Si: “Ye Sha.”
Ye Sha: “I thought you left.”
Dao Ming Si: “I left? Why?”
Ye Sha: “Because you’ve always been telling me that you can’t go back and also don’t want to go back. But… I still wanted to return you to San Cai. Ah Sing, I made a mess of everything, right?”
Dao Ming Si: “There’s something that I want to tell you.”
Ye Sha: “I also have something to tell you.”
Dao Ming Si: “I want to tell you…”
Ye Sha (interrupting him): “I love you.”
Dao Ming Si stares at Ye Sha in stunned silence.
Ye Sha: “I actually wanted to bury these words inside my heart and never say it out loud. Until I saved you from the swimming pool, (Dao Ming Si looks to the side with a hurt expression on his face.) I discovered that if you weren’t by my side, if I lived by myself, then I’d be better off dead.”
Dao Ming Si (quickly turns back to face her): “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Ye Sha: “Right. I’m speaking nonsense. I’m crazy! (pause) I obviously love you but I’ve been doing so many things that makes myself regret. (pause) I’m dumb, stupid, makes people really mad, right? (pause) But you have said before that you like my stupid ways. You also said that it doesn’t matter who you are, you would love me forever. Do you remember?”
Dao Ming Si: “I remember. Every word that I said, every thing that I did, I remember it all.”
Ye Sha (smiles and rests her head on his chest, wrapping her arms around Dao Ming Si again): “Never again. I would not leave you again. (pause, raising her head up to look at his face) Doesn’t matter if you are Ah Sing or Ah Si, I will not force you to regain your memories. I will also not force you to love someone else. Because I’ve had enough of being jealous. Even if I’m to be beaten to death in this lifetime, I don’t want to be jealous again.”
She smiles at him and then rests her head back on his chest again. At this moment, the sky opens up and starts raining.
Ye Sha: “The words that I wanted to say, I’ve finished saying. (raises her head and looks at Dao Ming Si) What do you want to say? (finally noticing the rain) Oh, it’s raining harder and harder.”
Dao Ming Si looks up at the sky with the rain on his face and then looks back down at Ye Sha’s uplifted face filled with happiness.
Dao Ming Si: “Let’s go home.”
Ye Sha: “That’s what you wanted to say?”
He puts on a smile for her and nods his head. Ye Sha giggles and then rests her head back on his chest. Above her head, Dao Ming Si has a pained expression on his face as he looks up at the sky.
San Cai is still running and brushing the tears from her eyes every couple of steps. Finally she stops running, leaning against a wall out of breath. As she stood there, trying to catch her breath, the image of Ye Sha and Dao Ming Si kissing floats through her head, the image of when Dao Ming Si is standing inside the elevator but doesn’t hold the door for her, the image of when she was on the rooftop with Dao Ming Si and he was telling her that it doesn’t matter how many memories they have together, the one that he loves is still Ye Sha and then back to the image of Ye Sha and Dao Ming Si kissing. San Cai slowly stands away from the wall and starts walking sadly with her head down. She passes by the street where a big cartoon character is giving away balloons to the passengers on the street and she stops to look at the balloons. At home, San Cai is sitting outside while Lei is calling San Cai’s cell phone, but she left it on her dresser by the bed in her room. San Cai is sitting on the front steps and holding a balloon in the shape of a heart in her hands. She hugs it to her before, slowly, slowly letting it go and watching it float up toward the sky.
Next morning, Sha Ge is walking sleepily, with eyes half closed toward the kitchen. He opens the refrigerator door and pours himself a glass of milk. After closing the refrigerator door, holding his glass of milk in his hands, he slowly walks away drinking. As he was walking out of the kitchen and drinking his milk, there came a loud sound of a blender buzzing. He was so frightened that he spits out the milk that he was drinking. He turns around and sees Ye Sha standing there, with a blender on the kitchen counter.
Ye Sha (smiling happily): “Sha Ge, good morning!”
He slowly walks over to where Ye Sha is standing.
Sha Ge (looks at Ye Sha’s happy face and teases her): “You’re out of bed? Making breakfast? What a surprise!”
Ye Sha: “Get out of the way, you.”
Sha Ge (laughing, leans closer to Ye Sha): “Have happiness huh? Huh? HUH?”
Ye Sha (points at his head, smiling): “Go away!”
Sha Ge laughs again.
Ye Sha (hands him a glass of the drink that she made): “Drink this.”
Sha Ge (taking the drink and looks at both the drink and his glass of milk): “Last night... (He takes a sip of the drink that Ye Sha handed him.) Ah Sing must have said something to you, right?”
Ye Sha (denies): “No.”
Sha Ge (puts down his glass of milk): “No?”
Ye Sha (taking the toast out of the toaster and onto a plate): “Nope.”
Sha Ge: “I know. There must have been…”
He makes a kissing sound with his mouth and fingers.
Ye Sha (smiling, putting more bread into the toaster): “No also.”
Sha Ge (with a disbelief tone): “NO?! (leans up to Ye Sha’s face) Yeah right! You really think that I couldn’t feel that you have changed? (pause, smiling) Moreover, Ah Sing loves you so much. And he sees that you are all wet from the rain and looking for him everywhere and then he would be so touched that he would…”
Ye Sha (smiling widely): “I was the one that kissed him.”
Sha Ge (looks on with an amused face): “Oh?”
Ye Sha: “I also told him that I love him.”
Sha Ge laughs and drinks in happiness while Ye Sha stood there with a face filled with happiness.
Ye Sha: “Sha Ge, I feel that I didn’t have any courage in the past. But now I realize that those who are really not qualified to speak about tomorrow are the ones that don’t know how to hold onto today. (pause) From now on, I must let I and Ah Si’s every single day be without any regrets.”
Sha Ge opens up his arms happily and then both give each other a big hug. Suddenly Sha Ge thinks of something and pulls away.
Sha Ge: “Oh no! This… this… have to hurry up. (He grabs Ye Sha’s hand and pulls her along.) Last time I…I… brought this ring for you. Do you remember where you put it? Let’s go to your room.”
Sha Ge drags Ye Sha along and quickly runs into her room.
Sha Ge (urgently): “Quick! Quick! Quick! Help me look for it! Look for it. (stopping in the middle of the room) Last time when I came back from Spain, this meteor ring that I brought back. The one that you took away. Help me look for it. Please, please.”
Ye Sha nods her head and Sha Ge frantically looks around the room.
Sha Ge: “Where did it go? How can you just put things anywhere?”
Ye Sha (taking out a tiny box): “Is it this?”
Sha Ge seeing the box breathes a sigh of relief.
Sha Ge: “Thank God! (taking the ring out of the box) Good thing it’s still here. Then, I will quickly get rid of it.”
He puts the ring back in the box and takes it out of Ye Sha’s hand.
Ye Sha: “Get rid of what?”
Sha Ge: “Did you forget? I said that this ring has been cursed. It’s very uneasy that you and Ah Sing have such a wonderful future ahead of you. How can I leave this horrible thing beside you then?”
Ye Sha (amused): “Sha Ge. Why are you so superstitious?”
Sha Ge: “I’d rather be superstitious, then you being uncaring about it. If we can hurry up and get you and Ah Sing into a Church and say ‘I do’, then even if I have to drink bitter water, then I would gulp, gulp, gulp it down.”
Ye Sha (smiles at him): “You don’t have to rush to drink bitter water. Let me make a call first.”
Sha Ge: “Who are you calling?”
Ye Sha doesn’t answer and just picks up her cell phone. Just as she was about to make the call, her cell phone rings.
Ye Sha (answering the phone): “Hello?”
