Fan Series #2; Unpredicted Dreams

49; A Bit Disappointed

JI

"How can you act like that, Zeyu?" I sighed and massaged my forehead, "I never thought you did that, to a woman, so badly you did!"

"Babe, calm down," said my wife.

"I'm just annoyed, he did something that can hurt someone, he hurt a woman, why do you even need to call SheYang, for this to happen?" I asked her.

"No, babe, because I know she made it. She tore and ruined the only picture that Zeyu saved for 20 years, It's the only picture, our first picture, it's very valuable' to be honest!" she yelled.

"So you're mad, that I'm defending a woman like you?" my forehead furrowed. "What, am I doing it wrong?"

"You're doing something wrong, Ji, even though she's a woman, she made a mistake that shouldn't be overlooked just like that, what she broke is very important to me, it's just the only photo I put importance in, now, think about it!" Zeyu shouted.

"Can you stop shouting, Yelimi is stressed..." Junhao said. "Can we talk about that properly?"

"Fine." I sat down and sighed, "Why did you do it then?"

"As I said, that photo is the most important thing to me, jealousy is not a reason to break my heart that bad, she broke it into the tiniest pieces it can be, not in the way lovers do..." Zeyu kept holding back his tears.

"Sorry Zeyu, but what you did is still wrong—"

"It's not wrong, Ji. She's a traitor," It was Yelimi. "How can you tolerate a girl like her, she only wants money from us!"

"Well then, how can we take that money back?" I asked, "We cannot just take money back from those ignorant humans..."

"We can do something for that other time, but the picture, I have to return it to normal..." Zhubao stood up and took the box from Zeyu, containing the torn picture.

"How can you bring that back?" I asked,

"I'll make a way, I'll leave for a moment, I'll just come back later." she walked away.

After what happened, I just stayed on the kids' room to take care of the twin. "Dad, are you okay?" Yong asked and passed me a glass of water.

"Not really..." I shookt and drank the water, "I think, your mom is kinda disappointed to me. I didn't know it would be bad defending that woman..."

"Sorry dad, but I think what mommy did was right, because you we're really wrong, defending that gold digger, also, dad. Did you just say a girl like mom?" He laughed. "Dad, no one can cop the glamour of my mother, she's different from others. No one can stand against her..."

"I know it, I am wrong, I need to clear things between us. I will just wait for her, go to bed now..." I smiled and tapped his shoulder. "Goodnight, Yong.."

"Good night, Dad. love yah."

ZHUBAO

"Hindi pa malamig ang ulo mo?" Allerioh asked as he stand beside me, staring at the city from the skyscraper we are standing at, "I told you not to call SheYang anymore, that's what you got, you almost got into a fight with your husband..."

I sipped the coffee from the cup, "I didn't think or even expected that he'll compare me to that leech. Another thing, the difference between the two of us are just too far, how can he say we're the same, I'm a woman, not just a woman."

I looked intently at the view outside, I could see the whole city from up here, we are here in the tallest skyscraper, with my older brother, thinking about things, "Actually, I can't blame you, Zeyu either. He can't love anyone anymore; he just seems to be waiting for you. I hope to have the next life so that you can meet again and have the opportunity to be for each other. I, on the other hand, all I ask. I hope you are my sister again..."

"Impossible, brother. I don't believe in the next life anymore. Another thing, this world is very brutal, it's very hard to live every day thinking about whether you will live later, tomorrow or the next day. It seems like every day you are waiting for something new and risky... " I took a deep breath.

"What about the people you made believe in that saying, you'll leave them on the air and say that you don't believe anymore because you're already discouraged?" my brother asked. "Bakit ganon, susuko ka agad?"

"I hope if that's true, gē. All I'm going to ask is, I hope the life in the other side not like right now, I hope my life is normal, not poor, not rich, but just neutral. That's just right, so that I won't have a hard time..." I shook my head. "I don't want to see my loved ones like this, just hiding in the outside world, because they don't know the fate of the day they face, it's hard."

"I understand you, I know how you feel, I'm having a hard time too, but shouldn't we just hold on and fight?" my brother asked. "We can't just give up like that..."

"I know, gē. I'm just having a hard time..." I sighed, "I hope gē, there is the next life, I'll look for you..."

He showed me his pinky finger, so I folded mine, "Next life?"

"Next life, we'll meet again..." I nodded.

He took me near and kissed my forehead, "You need to go home to your family, your husband is waiting for you. I will take you home, my princess, you need to rest before facing another challenge tomorrow..."

My tears flowed when I heard those words, "I missed how you call me princess..."

"Let's go, I will take you home, okay, we need a full rest for the following day. I love you my little princess... Zhubao."
