** Does love last forever? ~ Chapter 1 **
I'm sorry to say that my first two chapters are actually in script form.... I apologise again because I know that people don't really like reading script form!! I'll rewrite it all if I have time in the future! I hope you won't get put off by the beginning, this is my first fic after all and I didn't really have much experience writing then..
~*~*~*~*~*~
Glasses clinked together.
F4 and San Cai are in the bar.
Mei Zuo: Cheers!
Ximen: Where do u guys wanna go for our graduation vacation?
Ah Si (hugging San Cai): Where do you want to go?
Ximen (laughing): Ah si so caring and thoughtful.. thought you didn’t care about other people’s opinion?
San Cai (blush): Hey stop playing around.. Um… let’s go to Japan?
Ah Si: Stupid woman.. What’s so good about Japan?
San Cai: Well, I’ve never been there before.. And who are you calling stupid? You pig head.
Mei Zuo: Hey! stop arguing. We’ve been to all these places already so San Cai can choose. Let’s go to Japan. Lei, you wanna go to Japan?
Lei: ok.
Ximen: ok, we’ll go tomorrow. Meet at airport 9am?
Ah Si (hugs San Cai): I want to go alone with my San Cai.
San Cai: Hey! I’m not yours… I don’t want to go alone with you. I don’t have enough money though..
Ah Si: Are you dumb? I’ll pay for you.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
San Cai POV: *Why is he always like this with money? Taking everything for granted.*
Lei POV: *They look so happy together. Am I
jealous? But Ah Si is the one that San Cai loves.. I shouldn’t break them
apart..*
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
At the Airport
San Cai: I’m soo excited! We’re going to Japan!
Ah Si: Are you crazy? Haven’t you travelled before?
Mei Zuo: Stop arguing.. It’s only 9am in the morning.
Ah Si: Did I ask for you opinion?
Ximen: Here give me your passports.. I’ll go check in.
Everyone gives Ximen their passport.
Ah Si (points to San Cai): What’s that ugly thing around your neck?
San Cai: It’s a lucky charm, stupid! My mother got it for me from this temple. It’s for protection.
Ah Si: Right..
Lei: It’s time to go.
Walks over to departure gate.
F3 stay behind.
Mei Zuo (smiling) : Wish you guys a safe trip.
San Cai: What? Aren’t you coming? (turns to DMS) Is this your idea?
Ah Si: So what? Can’t you come alone with me? (mutters) Stupid woman..
San Cai: What did you say? If they’re not coming then I’m not going..
Ah Si (exasperated sigh): Why are you so annoying?
Ximen: If you keep on arguing you’ll miss the flight.
Ah Si: Did you hear that? (grabs SC’s arm) hurry up!
San Cai: Let go of me! I’m not going with you!
Ah Si and San Cai glare at each other
Lei: Maybe someone should say sorry..
Ximen and Mei Zuo are smiling, trying not to
laugh.
Ah Si: What? (sees XM & MZ) Fine! Sorry! Can we go now?
San Cai smiles and walks in. Ah Si follows.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Mei Zuo POV: * Can’t believe they keep arguing about such small things.. *
Lei POV: * Was that the right thing to do? Maybe I shouldn’t have let them go.. But I would be wrecking their happiness and F4… What should I do? *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In Japan
San Cai (jumping around): Wow! Can’t believe I’m actually in Japan! (laughs)
Ah Si (staring at SC as if she’s crazy): Stop being so childish! You’re embarrassing me!
San Cai (stops jumping): If I’m so embarrassing then why are you being my boyfriend? Stupid pighead!
Ah Si (ignoring the last phrase): Boyfriend? You finally said it! (hugs SC)
San Cai: Look who’s being embarrassing now..
Ah Si: I’m just happy okay? So where do you wanna go?
San Cai: Ummmm… let’s go to… Disneyland!
Ah Si: Are you stupid or what? Disneyland’s in Tokyo! This is Osaka.
San Cai (angry): I’m not stupid.. You’re .. (interrupted by DMS)
Ah Si: Ok. Ok. I don’t want to argue with you. Let’s go the hotel first ok?
They get into a taxi and they go to Friendship Hotel. [stupid invention of mine..]
San Cai: Wow! A five star hotel!
Ah Si (boasting): Of course.. This is the best hotel here in Osaka!
San Cai: Whatever.. Let’s go in.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the room
San Cai: How come there’s only one bed?
Ah Si: I’ll sleep on the sofa. You can have the bed.
San Cai (smiles): Ok. Can we go exploring now?
Ah Si and San Cai go walking around Osaka
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Back in Taipei
Lei is in his room playing his violin. Suddenly, his cell phone rings.
Lei: Hello?
Person on the phone : ………
Lei: Ok. I’ll come tomorrow.
POTP: ……….
Lei: Bye.
Lei POV: * Have to go to work in Japan again. Osaka. Isn’t that where San Cai and Ah Si are? Maybe I’ll see them. (smiles) San Cai.. Yes, she is the one I truly love. Should I pursue her even though she is with Ah Si? Better leave it to fate.. *
Lei picks up the phone and calls Mei Zuo.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the pub
Mei Zuo is all alone in the pub. Some girls try to come up to him but he just tells them to go away.
Mei Zuo POV: * So boring without the rest of F4. Ah Si is in Japan. Ximen needs to work. And Lei. Where’s Lei? Probably still sleeping.. (sigh) no fun anymore.. not even the pretty meimei’s … *
Cell phone rings.
Mei Zuo: hello?
Lei: Hi. It’s me.
Mei Zuo: Hi Lei. What’s up?
Lei: I have to go to Japan tomorrow. Urgent business, my father just called me.
Mei Zuo: Ok then. I’ll tell Ximen.
Lei: Ok thanks… Bye.
Mei Zuo: Bye.
Mei Zuo POV: * Great, now Lei has gone away as well. Only me left in F4.. *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In Japan- hotel room
It’s already the third day of Ah Si and San Cai’s vacation. They’ve been exploring the city and tomorrow, they are going to Tokyo.
Ah Si: San Cai, can you stay here? I don’t want you to get lost.
San Cai: Why? Where are you going?
Ah Si: I’m going to prepare a special surprise for you. I’ll call you when I’m ready.
San Cai: Fine. Don’t be too long.. It’s really boring here in the room.
Ah Si: I promise I’ll be really quick.
San Cai (smiles): Ok.
Ah Si leans in for a quick kiss and leaves.
San Cai POV: * I wonder what surprise he’s giving me. Does he remember what day it is? Maybe that’s what the surprise is for.. the anniversary of our first date.. (smiles) If it is then maybe I’ll forgive him for leaving me here all alone.. in this boring room.. *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Few hours later
San Cai’s cell phone rings.
San Cai POV: * This had better that pig head DMS. I’ve already been waiting for hours and hours. *
Ah Si: San Cai? The surprise is ready.
San Cai (smiles): Stupid! Why did you make me wait so long?
Ah Si: Whatever! You’ll see when you get here. Look out the window. Can you see an Italian restaurant? It’s in the next street.
San Cai: Yes..
Ah Si: Then go there. I’m waiting for you. Dress nicely.
San Cai: What.. (DMS hangs up)
San Cai POV: * Wonder what surprise it is? Took him so long.. Stupid pig! He knows I don’t have anything nice to wear… Who cares? I’ll just wear this.. What’s good enough for me should be good enough for him.. *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
San Cai crosses the street while thinking about Dao Ming Si and the surprise. She doesn’t see a car speeding towards her.
Someone suddenly calls out : San Cai!
San Cai turns around in time to see, a car slamming into her. She falls down, unconscious, blood flowing from her head.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Lei: San Cai!
San Cai turns around in time to see, a car slamming into her. She falls down, unconscious, blood flowing from her head.
Lei POV: * Oh my god! Is that San Cai?!?!?! *
Lei quickly runs out to San Cai. He lifts her up and carries her from the road.
Lei (shouting): Someone please call the ambulance!
Lei POV: * San Cai! Please don’t die! I love you… *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the restaurant- DMS
Ah Si POV: * Why is she taking so long?? Making ben shao ye wait so long for her.. (looks at watch) 5 mins! What if something happened to her?!?! No. No. No. Don’t scare yourself! It’s just two blocks away from the hotel.. How can something happen to her? Probably just still changing.. Yes.. that’s right. *
Ah Si had booked the whole restaurant to celebrate
their anniversary of their first date. Decorations hung from the ceiling and on
the walls. In the centre of the room, there was a long table with candles in the
centre. He had prepared a candlelight dinner for her!
[Sorry.. my description sucks! I’m not really good at writing…=) ]
Ah Si fingered the diamond meteor ring he had
bought for her.
Ah Si POV: * How can she have an accident just before I propose to her! I better
call her to see.. *
Ah Si picks up his cell phone and calls San Cai.
Ah Si: Hello?
Phone: Hello? San Cai is not available at the moment, please leave your message
after the beep. BEEP!
Ah Si: San Cai! Where are you? I’m really worried about you. I’m still waiting
for you in the restaurant. Hurry up!
Minutes pass by and San Cai still doesn’t come. Ah Si leaves countless messages on her phone before going to the hotel to look for her. When he finds out she left a long time ago, he gets very worried and starts to frantically search for San Cai.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the hospital
Lei (anxious tone): Doctor, is she going to be okay? [all this stuff is in Japanese.]
Doctor: Yes, she’ll be fine. But…
Lei: But what?
Doctor: She hit her head pretty hard and I think there is a blood clot blocking one of the blood vessels in the brain. So when she wakes up, she may have memory loss.
Lei: How much will she remember?
Doctor: I can’t really tell. But it may take years for her to remember everything or maybe she will forget some things.. forever. You can try and help her remember, but don’t push her too hard.
Lei: Thank you Doctor..
Lei POV: * San Cai, you have to remember me… remember Ah Si.. Maybe if she forgets Ah Si, then I can… No, that wouldn’t be fair to Ah Si.. What should I do? I should just help her find her memories, not take advantage of this accident.. *
Lei slowly walks over to San Cai’s bed. He softly kisses her forehead. “I’ll be there for you.. always..”
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In Taipei
Mei Zuo and Ximen are in VS.
Mei Zuo: Wonder how Ah Si and San Cai are getting along?
Ximen (laughing): Yeah.. do you think they’ve done it yet?
Mei Zuo (laughing): What.. (his cell phone rings) Hello?
Lei: Hi. It’s Lei.
Mei Zuo: Hey! How’s it going man?
Lei: There’s been an accident. San Cai’s in hospital.
Mei Zuo (stops smiling): What? Does Ah Si know?
Lei: I haven’t told him yet.
Mei Zuo (turns to Ximen): San Cai’s been in an accident.
Ximen (very shocked): What? How?
Mei Zuo (to phone): Lei, what happened?
Lei: I was just walking in the street then I saw a car crash into San Cai.
Mei Zuo: Where was Ah Si? Aren’t they supposed to be together?
Lei: I dunno.. He wasn’t there.
Mei Zuo: Do you want us to come to Japan?
Lei: If you want.
Mei Zuo: Ok. Me and Ximen will come as soon as we can. Bye.
Lei: Bye.
Mei Zuo (to Ximen): We’re going to Japan tomorrow.
Ximen: You still haven’t told me what happened.
Mei Zuo: San Cai was in a car crash. I guess Lei’s with her in hospital now.
Ximen: What about Ah Si?
Mei Zuo: He wasn’t there. I think we better call him. (cell phone rings) Hello?
Ah Si: Hi. It’s me.
Mei Zuo: Ah Si! Why weren’t you with San Cai?
Ah Si: What?! You know where she is?
Mei Zuo: She’s been in a car crash.. Don’t you know?
Ah Si: CAR CRASH!?! How do you know?
Mei Zuo: Lei just told me.
Ah Si: Lei? How would he know?
Mei Zuo: You don’t know? Oh right.. He’s in Osaka too. He had to go for business. 2 days ago I think.
Ah Si: SO WHERE’S SAN CAI?!
Mei Zuo: Calm down man! I don’t know. She’s in hospital. You better call Lei.
Ah Si: Thanks..
Mei Zuo: It’s ok.. The one you should thank is Lei. Hey, you haven’t told me yet.
Ah Si: Tell you what?
Mei Zuo: How come you weren’t with San Cai?
Ah Si: Oh.. I was in the restaurant, waiting for her. I planned a surprise for her, you see..
Mei Zuo: Right… so you left her all alone is a foreign country?
Ah Si: The restaurant was only 2 blocks away! How would I know she would be so stupid and get in a car crash?
Mei Zuo: hmm… sure..
Ah Si: Did I ask for your opinion?
Mei Zuo: Ok. Ok. Bye.
Ah Si: Bye.
Ah Si POV: * How did this happen? Stupid woman.. Can’t even cross the road properly. I should call Lei. *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Ah Si is speeding to the hospital, anxious to see San Cai. When he finally arrives at the hospital. He finds out what room San Cai is in and rushes to her room. He finds Lei sleeping in a chair beside her bed and an unconscious San Chai on the bed. He shouts out her name, waking Lei.
Ah Si: San Chai!
Lei (yawns): You’re finally here.
Ah Si: How could you fall asleep? What if she wakes up?
Lei: The doctor said it would be at least 36 hours before she fully wakes up.
Ah Si: Ok. What else did the doctor say?
Lei: He said that she has a blood clot in her brain and she might have memory
loss when she wakes up.
Ah Si: Memory loss? You mean, she’s forgotten me? That’s not possible.. She must remember me!
Lei: The doctor said not the force her too much.
Ah Si: Right.. (looks back at San Cai and holds onto her hand)
Lei POV: * Maybe I should leave them alone.. *
Lei: Tell me when she wakes up. I’m going to walk around.. Give you some time alone with her.
DMS nods, not really caring what Lei is saying. His full attention is on San Cai.
Ah Si POV: * San Cai! You must wake up and remember me! No matter what.. I won’t give up.. In the end, we will be together.. I promise. *
DMS’s cell phone rings.
Ah Si: Who is this? Hurry up and speak?
DMC (his father): Is this how you speak to your father?
Ah Si: oh.. sorry.
DMC: What? My son is actually apologizing?
Ah Si: Yeah Yeah.. What’s the matter?
DMC: I need you to come to New York immediately.
Ah Si: Can’t Ma come? Or Zhuang?
DMC: They both have important business elsewhere. I expect you to be here by tomorrow.
Ah Si: What? But I can’t leave San Cai! She might wake up any minute!
DMC: That poor girl? Your mother has told me all about her.. What happened?
Ah Si: She’s been in a car crash. She’s in a coma right now. She might have memory loss when she wakes up. So I have to be here to help her.
DMC: Does that mean she’s forgotten you? Good! That’s wonderful news..
Ah Si (angry): What do you mean?! How can you be happy?
DMC: If she’s forgotten you, then that means she doesn’t love you anymore! Then you can just forget about her too and marry someone of the same status as you.
Ah Si: Status. Wealth. Is that all you care about? What about my happiness?
DMC: You can still have happiness with a girl of good position in the society.
Ah Si: I won’t. San Cai is the only one I love!
DMC (angry): I don’t care about who you love! Just come to New York tomorrow.
Ah Si: NO!
DMC: You are my son. I have raised you since you were born. Given you everything you wanted. Is that not enough? Our business is in danger. Can’t you do something to help your family?
Ah Si: Fine! But when do I get to come back.
DMC: When our business in stable again. 2 months at the most.
Ah Si: Do you agree that you will let me come back after 2 months no matter what?
DMC: Ok.. Fine. But come on the first plane available.
Ah Si: Ok.. Bye.
Ah Si POV: * Why do I have to leave at a time like this? Why can’t I stay with San Cai? What if she doesn’t remember me? What if she doesn’t love me anymore? So many questions… But I am the only one San Cai loves.. she must remember me. *
DMS leans down to kiss San Cai. “Sorry, I have to go. Wait for me.”
He walks out of the room and tells Lei he has to go to New York.
Lei: But what about San Cai?
Ah Si: I can’t.. I’ll be back after 2 months.
Lei: I’ll take care of her for you.
Ah Si: Thanks. I have to go now.
DMS turns around and walks down the corridor.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the hospital
Ximen: What room is it Mei Zuo?
Mei Zuo: Room 58
Ximen: What level is that?
Mei Zuo: Level 4, all the best rooms are on that level.
Ximen: Ok, let’s go.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In Shan Cai’s room
Ximen: Ah Si, we’re here.
Mei Zuo: Lei, how come only you’re here? Where’s Ah Si?
Lei: He had to go.
Ximen: Go? Go where? How can he leave Shan Cai like this?
Lei: He has to go to New York. for business…
Mei Zuo: Can’t believe Ah Si would just leave Shan Cai.. This is so unlike him.
Lei: He was forced to.
Ximen: Forced? Must be Tai Hou agen. (Dao Ming Feng)
Lei: It was his father.
Mei Zuo: How’s San Cai?
Lei: She can wake up any minute now.
Ximen: Let’s go get some fruit or something for her. So when she wakes up, she can eat something.
Mei Zuo: I’ll go with you. Lei, do you want to stay?
Lei: Yeah, I’ll stay with her.
Mei Zuo and Ximen leave.
Ximen POV: * Poor Ah Si.. It must have been hard for him to leave San Cai.. *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Later, back in the hospital room
San Chai is lying motionless on the bed. F3 are sitting around the bed, waiting for some sign of movement from her. Lei is asleep.
Mei Zuo POV: * How can Lei still sleep at a time like this? Guess he really does need at least 12 hours of sleep. Wait. Did San Cai’s finger move? Or is it my imagination? *
Ximen: Did Shan Cai’s hand just move or is it just me?
Lei (waking up): What? She moved?
Mei Zuo: It’s not just you… She did move! Yes!!! She’s waking up!!!
Ximen: I’ll go get the doctor.
San Chai’s eyes open. “Who?” and her eyes close again, falling back into her slumber.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
In the hospital room
Ximen: The doctor’s here.
Doctor: What happened?
Mei Zuo: She woke up and said something. Now she’s like this again.
Doctor: Well, I believe she’s going to fully wake up very soon. I better tell the nurses to take away this drip and these machines. She won’t need them when she wakes up.
Lei: When will she be well enough to leave?
Doctor: If everything’s okay, then I say.. about 1 or 2 weeks. We’ll need to monitor her condition for a while.
Lei: Thankyou Doctor.
Doctor: My pleasure. Remember, she may be a bit confused when she wakes up. Don’t put pressure on her, if she doesn’t remember things.
Ximen: We won’t..
The doctor leaves.
Lei POV: * San Cai, you’re finally waking up. Ah Si isn’t here because he had to leave for business. But I’ll always be by your side, to help you if you need me. *
Mei Zuo POV: * San Cai’s finally waking up and Ah Si’s not here for her. Memory loss? Lei never told us about that. I guess she hit her head too hard or something. I wonder if she’ll remember Ah Si and F4? *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Outside a restaurant in New York
DMC: Ah Si, you should dress more formally for such occasions.
Ah Si: Why? I thought we were just having lunch with Mum.
DMC: Yes, but there will also be someone else there for this… business meeting. You need to look your best at all times.
Ah Si: Fine…
DMC: Ok, let’s go in now.
Ah Si: Who’s that girl sitting next to Mum? Oh…. This isn’t some matchmaking business is it?
At the table, DMF is sitting with a girl. DMC and Ah Si sit down.
DMF: Ah Si, this is Ye Sha Xiao Jie. Her family has businesses all over the world and her family is the richest in China.
Ah Si: I don’t care.
DMC: Ah Si! Don’t be so rude.
Ah Si: Is this a wedding engagement or something? If it is, I won’t agree.
DMF: Why?
Ah Si: San Cai is the only one I love and the only girl I will marry.
DMC: Ah Si! Don’t be like that! San Cai has already forgotten you, so you better forget her too.
Ah Si: I’ll make her remember.
DMF: Even if you make her remember, it doesn’t mean she’ll still love you. (cough) Um.. sorry Ye Sha. Excuse us.. our son is being a bit difficult..
DMC: Yes, sorry Ye Sha xiao jie. Maybe we can meet some other time?
Ye Sha: Oh.. that’s okay. I need to go now. Nice meeting you.. err.. Ah Si.
Ye Sha leaves.
DMF: Ah Si! How could you be so rude? Ye Sha is a
very beautiful and talented person, the perfect match for you!
Ah Si: No she isn’t. San Cai is my perfect match.
DMC: Ah Si, wake up! Face the truth. Shan Cai doesn’t remember you, she no longer loves you!
Ah Si: It doesn’t matter. Even if she no longer loves me, I will keep on loving her! If it weren’t for that ‘urgent business matter’, I wouldn’t be here.
DMC: You promised me you would help us.
Ah Si: So? I didn’t agree to a marriage!
DMF: By marrying, you are helping our business, Ah Si.
Ah Si: What?! Do you want me to help you by marrying that person?
DMF: That person has a name, she is ‘Ye Sha’. What’s so bad about her? She has a very nice personality, she can speak at least 5 different languages fluently and she can play 4 instruments. Who could be better for you than her?
Ah Si: I don’t care about how good she is. San Cai is much better than her.
DMC: AH SI! Stop being so difficult. Can’t you get it into your head that San Cai doesn’t love you anymore? If you’re not going to be with her, then why not marry Ye Sha instead?
Ah Si: How can you do this to me? You just treat my marriage as some sort of business deal! What about me? Do you even care about my feelings? My happiness?
Ah Si gets up from his chair and starts to run away from the restaurant. “Stop!”, DMF shouts after him.
Ah Si POV: * Is what they say true? What if San Cai forgets me and doesn’t love me anymore? Does love last when memories fade? *
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~--~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-
Hospital room
F3 are still sitting around San Cai’s bed, waiting for her to fully wake up.
Mei Zuo POV: * Why is it taking so long? I thought the doctor said she would wake up soon.. *
Ximen POV: * I wonder if she has forgotten us.. F4. Maybe she might remember Ching Her and Xiao You. Xiao You… I wonder where she is now? What is she doing? Does she think about me like I think about her? … Have I fallen for her? Me, Ximen, actually fallen for a girl.. Maybe I should tell her to come, say San Cai has been in an accident.. then I can see her again? *
San Cai slowly opens her eyes. She sees the three people around her.
San Cai POV: * Where am I? Who are these people?! Who.. WHO AM I?!?! *
Lei: San Cai! You’ve finally woken up!
San Cai: San Cai? Huh? Who?
Lei: You don’t remember? Your name is San Cai.
San Cai: My name is San Cai? Isn’t that a weed?
Mei Zuo (laughs): Yeah. Your parents named you after a weed. But I think the name really suits you.
Ximen: Right. Even if people keep on stepping on you, you will stand back up. The strong and brave SAN CAI!
Lei smiles faintly, happy at seeing San Cai woken up. “Do you remember anything?”
San Cai (sadly): No.. Who are you?
Ximen: We are F4!
San Cai: F4? But there are only 3 of you?
Mei Zuo: Ah Si is in New York. Do you remember Ah Si?
San Cai: Ah Si? Who’s that?
Lei: Dao Ming Si, your boyfriend.
San Cai: My boyfriend?
Ximen: Don’t you remember the one you loved?
San Cai: The one I loved?
Lei: Hey.. Don’t try and force her to remember. We’ll help her slowly.
San Cai (to Lei): What’s your name?
Lei: I’m Hua Ze Lei.
Mei Zuo: I’m Mei Zuo.
Ximen: And I’m Ximen!
San Cai POV: * How come I don’t remember anything? San Cai, Hua Ze Lei, Dao Ming Si, Mei Zuo and Ximen… These are all just names to me.. How can I forget my own name?! My head hurts.. *
Ximen: Do you remember your old friends? Ching Her? Xiao You?
San Cai: Who? No.. I’m sorry.. (holds her head in pain) My head hurts…
Lei: I think we better leave you to rest. Shouldn’t make you think too much. You’ve only just woken up. Take a rest. We’ll be outside.
F3 leave.

Meanwhile in New York
DMF: Find some people to chase Ah Si. Hurry! Don’t let him, under any circumstances, leave New York.
DMF POV: * I will not let him go again. First he rejected Xiao Zi. Ah Si must marry Ye Sha. If Ye Sha becomes my daughter-in-law then her father, President Gao will certainly agree to my merger plan. Then the Dao Ming Family will become richer and more powerful. Hm…. Always this San Cai.. wrecking my plans.. Pity she didn’t die in that car crash. I must find some way to convince Ah Si, she is dead.. Then maybe he’ll forget her and move on.. to Ye Sha.. (smiles evilly) *
