Madame Wu's Cafe' of Antiques

Into the dim, candlelit room Wu Jingyan stood at the balcony, her back facing the luminous glow of the moon. Feeling the cold air of the night.

" 700 years..." She murmured silently.

Another day was spent and she had to endure more of it. How agonizing.

People always wished for a long life but living too long doesn't guarantee happiness. For her it is a painful and lonely torture.

She was alive but not truly living. She was like the items displayed in the cafe, a remnant from the past that continues to exist.

It was her punishment, to amend for her sins but how could she truly repent if she can't remember the crime she had done.

She was in deep tought when Xu Shen arrived .

" Madame Wu." Xu Shen called out, he gave her a bothered look. " What's wrong." She asked.

" Someone's here" He answered uneasily.
