One Pervert System (BL) (End)

35. Called Back Home

"Mom, I'm sorry for letting you down..."

A week later, his mom got hospitalized. She has fainted when she's working late at night.

The test results have come out. She has suffered gastric ache since she's younger. The illness has transformed into cancer. Third stadium.

His mom looks frail and she's smiling weakly. She caresses his head.

"Vincent, you are still you. No matter what's your sexual preference. You are still my boy. My joy. I'm proud to be your mom."

"Mom..."

"Be strong. Don't hook up with bad men. Choose a guy with a steady income. Don't pick up a jerk."

"Mom, I love you."

"Vincent, my boy. I'm still here. Won't die so soon. I'm still going to attend your wedding day."

Vincent nods his head several times. He promises her to get good grades. To get scholarship so she doesn't need to work too hard anymore.

His mom smiles when she says, "Don't push yourself too hard. I know your low brain capacity. Don't make promises you can't keep."

His mom stays in the hospital for weeks.

She has finally accepted her only son is a gay.

Honestly, it's hard for parents to accept this fact. All parents want their kids to live happily. Fearing they would be bullied for being different.

In the end, Vincent is still her son. She would accept his choice.

She looks better in the third week. In the next day, she's gone. Leaving Vincent alone in this world.

"Mom, you lied to me... You said you would get better..."

They got no money to buy a grave site. Her mom was cremated and her ashes is scattered to the ocean.

She is a poor woman who worked double shifts to save more money for his education. Her son isn't smart so she has long given up for scholarships.

Other woman in her shoes probably would hate him to death. His birth was unwanted, a result from rape.

She had a fiancee back then. The man left after he heard she's pregnant. He wouldn't believe she hadn't flirted her Boss, the billionaire.

At first, she wanted to do abortion. In the end, she kept him. She once said it's the best choice in her life. She's an abandoned orphan, always alone. With Vincent, she finally has a family.

Vincent is weeping bitterly. Sean gives him a good hug, letting him cry on his shoulder. Jack is next to them. He is silent. He only stares to horizon in vast ocean.

The brothers stay in Vincent's apartment to keep him company. The three of them sleep on the floor.

There is only one bed in this home. Vincent is unable to sleep on the bed after his mom died. He kept feeling she's still lying next to him. When he opens his eyes, she's no longer around.

His heart is bleeding. It feels dying inside. His mom has died. The pain is unbearable.

Vincent knows where his mom hides her beer cans. He opens them up and drinks them.

His stomach couldn't stand it and he vomits a little.

Sean found him in the kitchen.

Vincent's clothes got dirty. He is too drunk to take them off. Sean helps him out. Vincent almost lost his balance. He puts his hands on his shoulders to regain it.
