Episode 4.
Yi Ming woke up alone in bed the next day. Ting Ting suddenly comes back to the bed and massages her back. Her husband came home that day. She told her husband that she has yoga class that day, and her husband told her that their son’s lunch boxes had run out. She told her to cook for their son but she ended up giving the list of the food he can order for Xiao Zhe. Ting-Ting is waiting for her outside her home. While waiting for the rain to stop, Ting Ting noticed that her mood was not that good. Though the latter told her she was fine, Ting Ting knows that she’s not.
Flash to their high school life, the two girls are having a good time at their volleyball training. They walked home together that night. While walking home, they are talking about what school will Yi Ming attend in college. While walking, the two of them decided to stay in an alley for a while and started hugging each other. They both feel calm in each other’s arms. A moment later, a man showed up in front of them. They got scared and Ting Ting drove her bike faster but they slipped and both of them fell.
The next day, the two of them were summoned to their school’s counselling office. Their school received a report about a suspicious man who did something inappropriate to some students at their school. So they were questioned why they were in that dark alley late at night. The counsellor continues questioning them on what happened that night but none of them answers. So the counsellor told them to write what happened that night.
After the counselling, Yi Ming confronted Ting Ting. She told her that they don’t need to go home together because her father told her to quit volleyball. She also told her that what happened to them that night wasn’t an accident and it was because they are too close. Ting Ting asks her why she’s mad and the latter answers she’s mad because they are not okay and they’re disgusting. Yi Ming graduated from high school and before she left school, she bid her goodbyes to Ting Ting. She told her to study and practise hard and she will watch their games too. She also told her that her father wants her to study in Canada in her sophomore year. Yi Ming wants to take a picture of them as a memento but because of disappointment, Ting Ting walks away.
