(~Birth of Wangji~)
"This is your baby Brother, XiChen." Uncle carefully places the infant in my arms. The first thought than runs course through me is the fact that he is so delicate. So white. So pure. So innocent. So mine.
Never had I felt so protective towards another being, but when I met you, I knew, I just knew, I was born to protect you. You were someone whom I could protect without second doubt. The moment you were placed in my arms, I swore to protect you with my life, with my soul and with my very being.
"What do you want to name him?" Uncle enquires and I am surprised, "You want me to name him?" With smile he nods.
Pondering over his question I caress your chubby cheeks and that is when your pale eyes seek mine, my soul realises how calm your eyes are. Calm as the blue sky. For some reason, your soul seems already enlightened. I knew for somewhere within me, you were an old soul. A soul who had nothing to do with mere mortals, yet born to achieve great zeal in his life.
"Zhan, an Azure shade of the color blue, his birth name, name only for his very own to refer, and for the world shall call him Wangji, meaning a soul who has nothing to do with mere mortal beings, his courtesy name."
A chorus of cheers and appreciation rings around me but my heart only beats for the little one in my arms.
Wangji.

Walking slowly towards Jingshi, a forbidden place, where I or rather no one is allowed to enter, yet not taking into consideration for any rules today, I go beyond rules, beyond the laws laid down by my uncle, so that atleast once I could meet our mother, assure her that Wangji is alright. He's with me. Assure her that I shall protect him. I knock once and her feeble voice quivers as she gives me permission to enter.
"Mama." I greet with a warm bow and walk into the room only to find her struggling to sit properly. The son in me runs to help her out as she leans against the wall. I bring her a cup of water as her parched eyes gazes at my face and her smile conveys all her emotions.
