Having headphones over his ears yibo was watching Zhan who is sleeping peacefully. Those sleepless nights, tight schedules. He understands how it feels. They just noticed that Zhan fainted from shock but how can someone start snore the moment he placed him over his bed. Zhan hugged half of the blanket while soft 'warm' 'nice' words escaped his mouth. And the snores soon faded. But again the sleepless nights were caused by him.

Sitting beside him yibo soothes his skin which now looks flashy pink. This is his Gēgē whom he had his first encounter with, at the airport. Where they were going to chase their dreams together. He whom had passed a lot of sufferings to reach where he is now. He is very strong. No matter how hard he refuses. The yibo? will keep on praising him that he did good always.

Maybe the regret is still there of accusing someone who had always wanted to be faithful to him. The one who did everything despite pain and struggle just to have what it feels to have a good relationship as lovers do. In the middle of his thought Zhan is awake but the older only slightly shivered before jolting awake. His body electrified in shudder as yibo retreated his hand. And calmed himself and see what will he do next.

And that was it. Zhan blinked one, twice, thrice before pulling the blanket closer to him and closed his eyes again. Takes deep breaths as tears brimmed to come out. They stung badly.

"I just thought it was real. He left me again."

"Gē...are you alright? Gēgē?" Yibo's touch made him jolt again but fully awake, turning behind him there is yibo watching him. "Are you okay?"

"I'm sorry." That's all Zhan can say. "Excuse me first." He wanted to use the comfort room first.

"I'm the one to be sorry." Going the other side so he can face him carefully. "Can we put these issues aside. You were tired and only slept one hour. I know it because you can't hide the fact. But the party downstairs, you need to attend it. Then after, you can sleep. Not rest." Grim looking at Zhan.

"You mean a party?"

"This time with your twin, and parents. Beautiful, right?" Smiles in assure.

"Mm, o-uh!!" Zhan staggered but held yibo safe on his arms.

"Taking back my words will be a lie. But I'm sorry gē." Hiding his face over his neck filling his nostrils with the strong scent. "As days went on I kept feeling guilty. Realized how much my words hurt you. But now I understand, that it has always been work and nothing more. That things like those happens. Because I experienced it myself. But I won't let that happen again. Products can be endorsed, advertisements can be done. But not with those fingers which resemble like worms crawling on my bod. How I wish to stab those nails like of wizards." Purring more. "Gē...

"Hmm?..."

"I'll always shield your heart. Will never let it be scammed by anyone. I've always loved you. Never once did I not think about you." Kissing his cheek softly. "Now let's go. No more talks." Jumping down he makes him look presentable, holds his hand and the two leave the room.

........

"You are leaving for Taiwan!?" Asks yibo. Obviously they are at the airport grounds.

The week they had was blue. How they settled their differences aside. Realizing that, being any kind of idol, faith is what matters. Be it how many female or male you encounter with, all your hearts needs to, is stick together. And maybe for yibo he leaned a lot.

"Mm. Photoshooting and live streaming."

"Okay. You take care okay? Heavily clothes many of them packed. Eat well Gēgē. Remember to rest whenever you are tired. Don't force yourself. These days you took your enough rest and I'm happy that you are back to who you have to be. So please."

"I will. Everything you advised me you follow them too. Okay." Stroking his face.

"Mm. Wish you a successful work."

"You too." Having themselves a short and promising romance. Soon Zhan was inside the plane leaving Beijing.

✈️✈️✈️

"Let's put an end to these mailings." Burning the envelops.

"Mom. Will grandma be happy to see me?" Asks Aika.

"I hope so too. Both you and Jun she can approve of." Hugging her daughter one side. "We will be leaving by today evening. After your father comes back." Who thought that she'd stop acting? That's the biggest change of her life after those three years. And now she only focuses on her businesses.

"Are we going to have few days there?"

"If everything goes well...oh! Should we speak and you don't show up!!" Exclaims Zanilla when Jun slams his body behind her in a kneeling form.

"And how is my baby girl doing?"

"Dad! I thought that already made myself clear! I'm no longer a baby now!😡"

"Wife I need your support in this!"

"Oh! Fight alone hubby." Smiling

"And I love you my family. How about a fourth family!"

"I'm warning you. When we are there we can't take any horny actions."

"Then let's do it now before we leave. I'm ready for love. Can't yOu feeL iT?" He whispers lastly sending shivers towards her already wet hole.

"Junhh...stop it please." But her arms already circled over his neck.

"You can at least tell me to leave."

"And remember to stay away from that boy. Or else he will be bald and no one will see him handsome anymore."

"Dad you!!...

"Let's go inside love." Sucking his Adam apple. And in a minute they were kissing going towards their room while Aika shakes from the porn she was just about to see.

..

...

....

"Are you scared??"

"No! I'm not." Smiles she before stepping towards the door bell and presses it. While inside a not looking old at all woman was already watching over the intercom which hurriedly she went and opened the door. "Umm....

"Zanilla, that's you??"

"Mo--om...

She stutters.

"It's me mom." Gulping the salty taste. "This is my family." Pointing at Jun and Aika who also are holding their breaths.

"Uh...come in."

"It's okay. They are too heavy." Speaks Jun when Mrs Zhao wanted to take the luggages.

"Come here you beautiful one." Aika first looks at her mother before looking back at Mrs Zhao. Finally she hugs her and they enter inside the house.

❤️❤️

"This is too much!"

"Because I never heard a chance to do what I always dreamt. Shower my mom in-law with all I have. Including respect, love and happiness." Taking the last box that's full of cosmetics, perfumes at many.

"This really is too much." Looking at the gifts. The party Hanfu's, and many more. "But this will mean nothing if my daughter isn't happy. Love, mom never was angry with you, but are you happy with him. Are you happy together? Is he not just a replacement? Is your daughter happy too?"

Jun slightly trembled hearing the word replacement but Zanilla erased that fear with a simple kiss.

"Because I'm willing to have a fourth family, that measures how much how much I love him mom. I was just scared of bringing a stranger to you, and worst after the wedding, it's been years already. But with Jun, I leant to move on, leave the past and built the future, which is this one, but our future will be more blessed that I finally brought this man to you. And I hope he isn't a stranger to mom. Is it?"

"Of course dear. Come all of you." They two stood up and hugged her which she stood too. "I just bless your marriage, and be the happiest family I've ever dreamt of dear."

"Thanks mom, mother-in-law." At the same time.

"Call me mom. Idiot."

"Your first meeting and now you have started making her lion!!" Whispers Zanilla facing Jun still hugging which Jun just smiles and like a puppy.

"Mom."

"I'll try to cover the gape of a mother to you." She knows now that Jun was just an orphan who grew up in an orphanage and soon gave out his way on what he can for life and almighty blessed him.

"Thanks you." Aika too was brought and they all hugged happily.

Three months later....

"You come here when you are down." Asks yibo sitting beside Zhan.

"I just don't know. Instead of seeking refuge from mom and dad. I just find this place more calming and assuring that everything's going to be okay always."

"Zhan my love. Stop being paranoid."

"I don't know I just don't feel safe that's all."

"Not because of Yong ze, Right!"

"No! I'm sure he will always be good and safe. Forgiving father that time was the best thing I had done. Though it was difficult, but it felt light when we mended our differences." Taking away the dirty on two tombs. Showing his parents name. (The formal ones.) His uncle or once father died two years. They finally mended their differences and made it to one year before dying. "Maybe if I did that a long time a go. He would still be alive."

"Don't dwell on the past Zhan." Leaning his head over his shoulder. "You went through everything just to come over that sorrowful night and those days. Now it's okay to be happy and free yourself from the past that won't leave your mind but you can win by not thinking about it." Facing Zhan who too faces him.

"I love you yibo?"

"More than anything??"

"Be careful with that Zheng guy."

"He is far away Zhan?"🤨 'This guy is overly jealous.'

"I don't care. Just always be careful. That time when he kidnapped you because of his lust? Thought that I'd lose you. You refused guards and your son supported you. I almost chopped his fingers out. Now be good always, don't give me a heart cancer-

"Shhhh, how many times I tell you to not speak that shit!!!" Screams yibo. "I don't want to remember that time anymore. How you struggled alone when I was needed to be there. How you searched for me everywhere when I wasn't. So don't speak about any deadly disease to me again!!" Standing up, yibo leaves while Zhan sighs.

..

"I'm sorry yibo."

"We have to go and pick our boy. And not staying here." Facing outside the window.

"I promise won't speak that again-

"While you did thrice, fourth times and more already!" Forcibly turns to look at him while Zhan faces down. "can you please don't speak those ghost things anymore?"

"I won't. I'm sorry. If Yong ze sees us like this? He will suspect something."

"Come." Hugs Zhan. "I've forgiven you."

"I love you yibo."

"I love you too Zhan love."

Thanks...🙏🙏🙏
