TIGER WU'S

WOMEN FROM THE PAST

Wu Jin Ming carried Rubby walking at wind speed. Within seconds they had reached the edge of the forbidden forest, where Rubby had once lost his way. Not much has changed in that place, it is still the same as it used to be, roughly a year ago when they met there.

The big stone and tree that became a marker to enter into another dimension that was there was still the same.

Rubby and Wu Jin Ming looked at each other with their hands still clasping each other.

"We have arrived" Wu Jin Ming said softly.

"Yes. Everything still looks the same as it did." Rubby led Wu Jin Ming to walk without letting go of his handrails.

Prohibition forests are filled with large trees surrounded by shrubs. All grow naturally because they are rarely touched by human hands. They did not dare to approach there after several times hearing the news that everyone who entered the forest would never be able to return safely.

The two of them were on the threshold of the dimensional gate to another realm. Rubby tried to convince himself to go in there again. The shadow of fear remained in his memory. A memory in which he was chased by a snake demon who wanted to prey on him.

"Are you sure you want to go inside?" wu Jin Ming asked confirming Rubby's seriousness.

"It's afternoon. We'll be inside for a minute. I just want to take a look, honey. After all, the sound of the forest beasts would feel terrifying if it was dark."

"Then hurry up! Time in that dimension is faster than time in the human world. One minute there is an hour here." Wu Jin Ming reminded.

"Hm. Come on!" Rubby nodded.

Wu Jin Ming and Rubby walked together through that dimensional gate without letting go of their hands.

Ambience changed. In the dimensional realm there is no day or night. All the time it's always the same. Dimmed.

The memory inside their heads each twisted displaying a different impression according to what they had experienced.

Wu Jin Ming coated their bodies with protective energy in order not to be pierced by any force that could have interfered with their journey.

Walking step by step on the trail of memories they passed. Actually Wu Jin Ming wanted to take Rubby to the place where he spent time there. But maybe the cave where Wu Jin Ming ascended was already inhabited by other beings who were ascetic as well.

"Sister Wu! I'm done. Let's go back." Rubby turned to face Wu Jin Ming.

Wu Jin Ming grabbed the other Rubby's hand until their two hands held each other. They looked at each other with love. Rubby crashed into his body and hugged Wu Jin Ming.

"Sister Wu! I love you." Those were the only words he could speak at this moment.

Wu Jin Ming returned his embrace. His hand rubbed Rubby's back gently. His heart trembled at Rubby's words even though he had heard them very often before. Perhaps it was the memorable atmosphere and moments in this place that made the expression so special.

"I love you so much too, Rubby. Very! You're the only person I have." Wu Jin Ming held onto Rubby's body tightly.

For a moment they dissolved in their deep feelings. The growing affection and not wanting to part with each other made them not immediately let go of their embrace.

Without them knowing there is a woman who is eager to see the romance of both of them.

From a moment ago he stood beside them and saw the scene of their affection unfolding.

Feeling that Wu Jin Ming and the unknown girl did not end his embrace, the woman took the initiative to call Wu Jin Ming early.

"Xin gan!" call the woman softly for saying those words while enduring the sadness.

Wu Jin Ming gasped. He felt very familiar with the call, the voice, yet he was not sure if it was the voice of the person he knew. Even so he wanted to see the truth. Slowly she let go of her embrace and looked for where the voice came from

Rubby heard that voice. It seems he mentioned a name.

"Xin gan!" repeat the woman when Wu Jin Ming did not also turn his head towards her.

Rubby and Wu Jin Ming simultaneously found the owner of the soft voice. A woman is slim, not too tall, white, has a pretty face and has long hair. She wears pink hanfu with simple motifs. Some of his hair in a bun up with a simple decoration but impressed elegant. If judged for her beauty may be a level or two below Rubby.

"Mimi!" Wu Jin Ming's voice seemed choked when he said that call.

The look on his face changed, between haru, longing, confused and upset. He seemed to be standing on the edge of a gulf when faced with two choices. Worried, restless, and maybe a little desperate.

Rubby looked at Wu Jin Ming and the woman Mimi was calling in turn. Trying to find answers to both of their strange attitudes. Her feelings became chaotic as she felt that the woman was a part of Wu Jin Ming's past.

"Xin gan, how are you?" the woman was seen suppressing her feelings and trying to act ordinary despite the tear spots stuck in the corners of her two eyes.

"Good." Wu Jin Ming lowered his head like he did not dare to stare at the woman's sad face.

Rubby felt Wu Jin Ming's hand turn warm and sweaty along with the turmoil in his body that might be about to explode. His blood flow was so strong as if his heart was working harder than before. How is it with his heart?

If you have to be honest, at this time Rubby felt a deep pain but he endured. Everyone has a past like him who has also been involved in romantic relationships with several men. Rubby closed his eyes for a moment trying to neutralize his jealousy.

"Sister Wu! I trust you. Solve your problems if there is any. I don't want to get caught up in two people who are in an unfinished love story." Rubby tried to strengthen his heart to say that.

Wu Jin Ming was shocked to hear Rubby's words. She did not expect that Rubby would be able to find out if the foreign woman was related to her. He looked at Rubby. Deep. Right now Wu Jin Ming was truly in a dilemma.
