James forced a bit of a smile, "Yeah, maybe." Then he paused, "Yue, something's going on that you're not telling me, right? That night I found you crying in the bathroom... Sheng said something... betrayed you... right?" he asked gently.

Yue didn't reply, turning her head away. It looked like she didn't want to talk about it.

"... C'mon, how can I help if I don't know what's eating at you so bad?" James asked seriously.

"No one can help," Yue replied.

James snorted, "Sure." He watched her for a long moment, "Don't make me get you drunk again." he threatened a little halfheartedly.

That seemed to shut her off a little more.

James leaned forward a bit, peering at her closely, "What are you going to do, Yue? Traveling doesn't seem to be helping you at all." he sighed.

"... I don't know," Yue replied honestly. "Probably just one day at a time."

James nodded, "That's a good plan." he smiled a little. "Wanna go for a walk? I'm in between shows right now." he offered, sitting back in his chair.

Yue thought about it a long moment. "... If you aren't annoying," she decided.

"I'll try not to explode anymore fireworks." he replied with a chuckle as he stood, "You wanna grab something to eat or another drink before we go?" he asked, glancing back at the kitchen.

"Nah," Yue replied as she stood and stretched a little.

"Anywhere you want to go?" James asked, "It's our last day in Sweden."

Yue shook her head.

James nodded, "Well... I think there's a festival of lights going on." he offered, "You want to go check it out?"

"... Wouldn't you get swarmed by paparazzi?" she asked.
