Jasmine Yale sat on the bedroom bed, with the door firmly shut.
Outside, night had fallen, and the sky had darkened.
She sat on the bed, hugging her knees, not saying a word, with her large eyes filled with a vague mist that slowly spread.
She couldn't quite grasp the feeling in her heart; she just wanted to sit like that.
Outside the window, the night sky was like a curtain, slowly obscuring the light.
The night at the Cheney Residence was tranquil and silent; the street lights came on, making the surroundings seem like a world apart.
After a while, Jasmine's WeChat chimed.
She snapped back to reality and grabbed her phone.
It was a message from Yukon Carbon: "Back in the country? Call me when you see this message."
Jasmine dialed Yukon's number.
"Mr. Carbon."
"Jasmine? Where are you?"
"I came back to the country, sorry, I didn't tell you. I came back to deal with a little issue with my residency, I'll return tomorrow." Jasmine lied with a smile.
