Snow, Clouds and Fate?

After work earlier today, I decided to drop by Kinokuniya Singapore Main Store, located at Ngee Ann City, to see if there are any new volumes of manga or magazines to add to my otaku collection. While humming "Shape of my Heart" sung by Backstreet Boys (mainly because I heard the song being played during my walk from Liang Court to Orchard), instincts prompted me to visit the chinese novel section, which happens to be Xue Yun's favorite section.

To my surprise, I found Xue Yun browsing through the shelf at that very spot! Is Lady Luck and Cupid smiling upon me or is fate playing a cruel joke? After speaking with her for a short while, I offered to help with her purchase, assuming she intends to make any. Moving along to purchase my manga, I soon received a message and a call, asking whether I am still within the store. Given my deep feelings for Xue Yun, I kept my promise and purchased a book for her, with my discount card. Although I did not spend much time with Xue Yun, I felt strangely happy when greeted with a smile from her beautiful face, yet the happiness turns into melancholy almost immediately.

Maybe someday, Xue Yun will come to realize my feelings. But for now:

雪雲が幸せだと、私も幸せなんだよ。

しかし、雪雲が知っていますか。
