Bai Cai has a dazed look on his handsome face and puts his hands on Emmi's soft cheeks, "You should leave…it isn't safe here. Tears form in his dark eyes, "Grandfather…Grandfather blames you…"
Emmi knows his grandfather died years ago, he must be hallucinating. She covers the back of his hands and tries to bring him back to reality, "Brother Cai..wake up…it's me… Chen Emmi."
Looking at the petite girl coaxing him, his clarity returns. He immediately takes his hands off her cheeks and stammers. 'I'm sorry…I…"
He still seems shaken and she holds his arm, "Let's get into the studio."
Once inside the cozy room, she points to a small carved wooden table then says, "I will make you some calming tea. Sit."
His eyes flicker with apprehension as he watches her slender back walking into the open kitchen area. His heart is filled with an inexplicable emotion not knowing what he said while standing by the garden.
