PETER PAN- LUHAN PART 2

PETER PAN- PART 2

We woke up early in the morning to get a great view of the sunrise from the Great Wall... I was excited for I don't know what reason, mama came with us on the trip.

I sat beside a very sleepy Mulan, I can see that she was still sleepy, we haven't been long on the road, she began to doze off, her head swaying from side to side... as the van turned her head almost hit the window if it weren't for my fast reflexes, whew!

I slowly guided her head to my shoulder as she continued to sleep and I on the other hand, trying to think and trying to sink into my mind that she is a 12 year old girl so stop acting as if you are getting giddy with this small action of yours...

I can't stop my heart from beating so fast... I sat the whole 45-minute ride stiffly, afraid that if I move she would wake up and won't get enough rest. Now why do I sound like a perverted old man... Aish!!! Mind stop thinking these things...

when we arrived, I was debating on how I would wake her up...I slightly shrug her shoulders, lightly whispering her name. I felt her move and a sound from her throat came out like a cute sound...

I found myself smiling at her while trying to wake her up. She finally opened her eyes and stretched her arms as she looked at me

"Ah! Mianhae oppa... I slept!" she told me showing me here cute eyes

I told her that we have already arrived and we needed to go down to meet our parents.

There was no problem going up to the Great Wall, it was really a great sight to see the sun rise, I found Mulan taking pictures again... she seems to be fond of taking pictures.

I heard my dad say that we were now heading to Tiananmen Square, I saw them easily going down the steps... I looked down and got a shock of my life... I didn't notice that we had reached such a high place... I was again like this OoO...

Lips are dry, starting to panic and hearing Mulan laugh at my expense is not helping... I went down the stairs backwards while Mulan held my hands slowly guiding me down, I know I should be ashamed to call myself a man if I were to rely on a girl, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

Obviously, the day tour didn't start as cool as I had imagined it to be, we went to Tiananmen Square then to the Forbidden Palace then off to Lunch and some shopping in the afternoon.

The Gongs enjoyed the tour, I was happy to see Mulan enjoying herself. Seeing her amused at such little things made me think that yes, she is still a 12 year old girl, but then when she looks so serious while watching performances, giving her observations about some of the arts displayed in the museum makes you think otherwise... it was like there is an old soul trapped in her.

The afternoon was a free time for them, Minji asked me to go with her to buy some souvenirs for her friends.

I took her to the souvenir shop downtown, where it was cheap and we can ask for great bargain.

When we arrived at the shops, we literally went to all the shops before she bought anything, she told me that she wanted to look at what the shops were to offer, she didn't want to buy something and then find another thing that is much more beautiful and cheap in the other stores.
