CBT

I forgot to say.... Sorry. Now is Year 2007.
When Hebe was shot, it was the month of December.
So one month later is Jan 2007.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On a street.

Jiro: Your birthday is coming, how do you want to celebrate it?

Genie: I don't know... That's a weekday, don't you have school?

Jiro: I'm free after school.

Genie:*smiles* Where are we going today?

Jiro: Actually, I've made an appointment with a doctor.

Genie:*smile faded* Oh...

Jiro: It's okay if you don't want to go.

Genie: But you want me to go, don't you?

Jiro: Yes...

Genie: What if this time is a futile trip again?

Jiro: I will keep trying until you regain your eyesight.

Genie smiled weakly.

-----------------------------------------

The following night. Prince's room.

On the line...

Prince: Guigui, are you willing to be my girlfriend?

Guigui: I... Hello? Hello?! No reception! Bye!

Prince: Wait...

---------------

Prince: Do I really have to try that method?

A knock was heard on the door and the door opened.

Genie:*walked into the room* Am I disturbing you?

Prince: It's okay.

Genie: *sat down* Shiqi brought me to the doctor's today.

Prince: Again? It's the third time this month. Didn't you tell him that you doesn't like seeing doctors?

Genie: I don't wish to disappoint him.

Prince: Because of this, you let him disappoint you again and again?

Genie: It's okay...

Prince: Don't you think it is a tiring relationship?

Genie: I should feel fortunate to have such a faithful person loving me.

Prince: But do you still love him?

Genie: I...

Genie's cellphone rang.

On the line...

Genie: Hello?

Danson: Yo Genie, are you free tomorrow morning and afternoon?

Genie:*smiled*Yes, what do you want?

Danson: You'll find out tomorrow.

Genie: What's all the suspense for?

Danson: It would not be fun if I tell you now.

Genie: Fine, see you tomorrow.

Danson: So that's a deal, Bye.

Genie: Bye.

-------------

Prince: Do you know something?

Genie: What?

Prince: You looked happier during the phone conversation.

Genie: It's just... I... Do I really look happier?

Prince: You do.

Genie looked down.

Prince: When are you getting your report?

Genie: Shiqi will tell me the results tomorrow night.

Prince: Good luck.

Genie: Thanks.

--------------------------

The next day. CBT Headquarters.

Genie: Why did you made me come here?

Danson: It won't be fun if I tell you.

Genie: But what if someone spots us?

Danson: Trust me.

------------------

CBT Headquarters. 56th floor.

Genie: Where are we now?

Danson: We're at the rooms area.

Genie: So where are we going?

Danson: My room.

Genie: Your room?

Danson led Genie to a room with the door number that read '440'.

-------------------

Room 440.

Danson: Sit here.*helped Genie to a chair*

Genie: So what exactly...

Her voice was interrupted by the music of a piano.

She began smiling.

It was her favourite song, 'The Rainbow That Never Disappears'.

She was touched by the melody of the song.

Tears started to flow, but she began laughing when a wrong note was played.

Danson: AHHHH! I give up!*placed his hands on keyboard*

Genie: *hid her tears and smiled*What are you playing? It sounded horrible.

Danson: Hey, you know I can't play the piano.

Genie: It's so funny...

Danson: Do you think I'm very free? If not for your birthday...

Genie: Well, thank you.

Danson: On your birthday, I would prepare a better gift.

Genie: Can you play the song again?

Danson: Are you serious?

Genie: What do you think?

-------------------------------

On a street.

Prince: Guigui, what would you do if I suddenly die?

Guigui: You're only 20, turning 21, you won't die so easily.

Prince: But who knows?

Guigui: If that really happens, I will burn more incense for you.

Prince:*Thinking* I have to think of something quick...

Guigui: Prince, you ask me out just to ask me this question?

Prince:*Thinking*If I tell her bluntly, she would find excuses to run away again.

Guigui: Prince, why aren't you talking?

Prince: I... Guigui, have you done your homework?

Guigui: What? Homework?

Prince: Since it's the weekend now, and Miss Fan would kill us if we don't submit our homework in time so I was wondering...

Guigui: You asked me out because of this? Thanks for your concern, I have done my homework last Friday. If there's nothing else, byebye!*walked away*

Prince: Guigui!

Guigui:*Thinking* Is he crazy?! He asked me out because of homework? Humph!

She ignored him and continued walking.

Prince: I screwed it up again. What must I do to let her accept me?

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Room 440.

On the line...

Jiro: I called your house and Joyce said you're not around. Where are you?

Genie: I'm just hanging out with my friends.

Jiro: Friends? Do I know them?

Genie: No, you don't.

Jiro: You scared me. I thought something bad happened.

Genie: I'm not a three year old anymore, don't worry.

Jiro: Well, take care of yourself. We'll meet tonight.

Genie: So you're picking me up at 6pm?

Jiro: See you later.

Genie: Bye.

--------------

Danson: Why don't you tell Jiro that you are with me?

Genie: I'm afraid that he might misunderstood.

Danson: We're brothers.

Genie: That's why it's even worse if he misunderstands.

Danson: Well, you want to try the cake I baked?

He placed a slice of cake on a plate.

Genie: How does it looks like?

Danson: Taste it and you would know.

He took Genie's hand to reach for the plate.

Genie took the piece of cake using her hand and placed it into .

Danson: How was it?

Genie placed the remaining piece on the plate.

Danson: I suppose it tasted badly.

Tears started to flow again.

Danson: Why are you crying? Did I do anything wrong? I'm sorry! Don't cry.

Genie: It's a mixture of 7 different tastes, just like the rainbow. It's is delicious.

Danson: Really? Why are you crying then?

Genie: *shook her head*It's nothing... So, what else are we doing today?

Danson: Something you like.

Genie smiled curiously.

------------------------------

Outside Guigui's house.

Prince:*knocking the door* Guigui! Open up! I have something to say!

GuiGui:*opened the door*I don't want to talk to you! Humph!*closed the door*

Prince: Guigui! Guigui!

Droplets of rain fell to the ground.

Guigui opened the door.

Prince: You're willing to listen to me?

Guigui: Nope. I just want to tell you to go home. I don't want you to die in front of my house.

Prince: Gui...

Guigui: Humph!

Guigui slammed the door.

Prince: I won't leave unless you listen to me!

------------------------------------------------

Room 440.

Music was played.

Danson: Take my hand, I will take the lead.

Genie: But I...

Danson: Trust me.

Genie: I can't dance.

Danson: Wasn't you the one that said you want to master Waltz?

Genie: I did say that, but now...

Danson: Dancing does not requires your eyes, it only need your legs.

Genie: Shixuan...

Danson: May I?

Genie nodded her head slowly.

---Recap---

Four years ago. 20th Jan 2003. Lims' Mansion.

Genie's family, friends and classmates were there.

Jiro: What's your birthday wish?

Genie: World peace! Good health for everyone!

Everyone cheered.

Jiro: What is the last one?

Genie: I want to learn Waltz!

Danson: You're wasting your wish like that?

Genie: I hope that one day my Prince Charming would appear and invite me to dance.

-----

Two years ago. Oct 2005. On a street.

Jiro: May I have the honour to dance with you?

Genie: Yes, you may.

---End---

Danson: You're doing great.

Genie: Thanks... It has been a long while since I have danced.

Danson: You're welcome. I am doing all these because of your birthday.

Genie: I wanted to ask you just now. Today is not even my birthday, why are you celebrating it?

Danson: I have something to do on that day.

Genie: You can't make it for my birthday party?

Danson: That's right.

Genie: Oh...

Danson: Sorry.

Genie: It's okay.

Danson: Anyway, you have Jiro and the others, right?

Genie: Right. It would be your loss for not coming. I can already imagine all the fun.

Danson: Yeah, right.

Genie: So, what are we doing later? Don't you say you have lots of programs lined up for me?

Danson: Let's go. It's raining but I don't think you mind, do you?

Genie: What do you think?

-----------------------

Outside Guigui's house.

Prince:*Thinking* I am freezing cold... What to do now?

---

In Guigui's room.

Guigui:*Thinking* He would get sick if this goes on... Humph! Serves him right.

---

Prince: Guigui! I have something to tell you!

---

Guigui:*opened the window* Save it! I've done my homework! Humph!*closed the window*

---

Prince: No! It's not homework! I want to tell you that I...*vision starts to blur*

---

Guigui:*talking to herself* Tongue-tied again? Humph, how hard is it to say what you want?

---

Prince pressed his forehead, trying to stop his dizzy spells. He fell to the ground.

---

Guigui: *Thinking*Is he gone?

Guigui opened the window and saw Prince lying on the ground.

Guigui: Prince!*ran out of her room*

I still remember following this when it first started a few years back, and I never really quite got over the incredible mysteries that revolves around the story. And I still can't get over it now that I'm re-reading it.

It is nice to see a classic story such as this to have preserved through winglin's long history of technical problems.
