POSSESIVENESS_ZHANYI

CHAPTER 27

Zhan Ge: Happy One Month Anniversary love. Each day I counted with you made me little brighter and little more happier. You know I've never felt so happy with anyone before You have been an amazing person to me. You're just like a sweet dream that I forever  want to preserve. I'm so very blessed to have you. You have been the best gift I got from God. You're one of the Amazing soul that have come to my life. Yibo the things you have done for my happiness I'm so blessed to have a person like you. No one else can love you like I do BoBo. You're the star of my life and I'll cherish you forever. Gege loves you a lot and I want this life with you till I take my last breath. 

I was blushing like a mad person. Zhan Ge never fails to make fall in love more. I smiling started to type my reply. 

Yibo: Gege I really love you so much. You really made me smile. I'm blindly in love with you. I'll always try to keep you happy. I'm blessed to have you too.......

But I didn't know soon the smile will vanish into a terror struck face and text remained unsend. I heard mom calling me right next to me. I was so deeply submerged into the phone that I couldn't feel mom standing next to me. I can't even remember when she must have knocked and entered. She has the habit of knocking. I didn't hear that too.

Speechlessly I stared at her. Her eyes were filled with questions and a bit of anger. I was confused. Did she got to know? But upon hearing her I knew she caught me red handed. 

"Since when are you playing these games Yibo?" Her voice was stoic. "Mom, it's not a game." I stuttered. "Don't tell you really think 'll accept a boy as your partner? That you Xiao Zhan? That bloody gay is now praying my son." She sounded deadly. I gulped down before replying, "Mumma don't say that way I love him a lot. Please." I was tearing up. "I have given you freedom doesn't mean you can love anyone you want. Do you get me?" She screamed the last words. 

My tears flowed out of my eyes. "Mumma I love him. I beg you don't do anything." "I hope you soon leave him. Or else I'll tell your Dad and you know what's gonna happen?" She uttered in a dead pane voice. "No. Never. I won't leave him..." And slap. She slapped me so hard that I couldn't compose myself and stumbled onto the bed. All I could do was to start wailing like a child upon getting hit by mother. 

"Don't show me your attitude Yibo. You chose the worst person. He has let his family down and now I can't see my son degrading with him." Saying that she left the room with a loud thud at the door.

I was shaking. I couldn't compose myself. Why did this happened? Why did she had to know just by this time when I'm already suffering so much? Zhan Ge was no less that Mom ended up adding more pain to me.  

I took the phone to call Zhan Ge, when I saw him texting. 

Zhan Ge: What happened are you still angry on me?

I kept his text on seen zone. My reply was never sent. I couldn't. I deleted my half written text and dialed his number. After few rings he finally picked up. "Yes Bo. Are you okay?"

Upon hearing his soothing voice I ended up wailing again. He panicked at my wail. He continuously kept asking what happened. But I wasn't composed enough to utter a single word. "Bo Bo calm down please. Tell me what's going on? Uhm!" He asked again. 

"Mom got to know... Mom .. " I uttered between my sniffles. "Got to know what? Yibo" He was getting impatient. He was no more waiting for my reply patiently rather kept asking more questions. "Us.. She knows now." I uttered and broke into tears again. 

"How? Yibo. Calm down. I know you might have been scolded by her. I understand." He tried to calm me. But I couldn't stop in anyways. My mind kept replaying what mom uttered at the end. 

Finally after some moment passed I was calmer and I uttered out everything mom said. Zhan Ge was very upset upon knowing he has framed a bad image in front of my mom. He kept saying he's not a bad person. He has his reasons to leave his home. His mom and sister are in his support. He told me to trust him. And  I did. 

Somehow or the other I know now why Zhan Ge must have left his home. I assured him that I trust him.  Soon we ended the call as it was getting late. It was passed 2 am and we were both tired. Saying 'I love You's' we ended the call. 

Though I ended the call, I was wide awake. I know her anger well. I know what will be my circumstances. I was beyond terrified. Will she involve Dad too? This COVID is already a barrier and we can't meet at all, now these are just too much to handle.

I feel suffocated. Is it better to die God? I'm too weak to handle so much of pressure. I can't God. I really can't. Help me please. 

I was still silently weeping when I heard a light knock at the door. "Come in." I knew it was mom. What does she needs now? "Are you okay? Did I slap too hard?" She came approaching me while patting her hand over the cheek that is still numb. "Mumma.. I'm sorry." And I started to weep. 

"Bo! He's not a good boy. You know he even ran away from his home once. He asked for lot of money and he ran off. He left his studies for about 6 months. He'll ruin you my boy." She paused while, I was trying to process her words. Zhan Ge never mentioned about leaving home. 

I felt hurt. Was it the truth that mom was speaking? I wasn't hurt that Zhan Ge didn't tell me. But I was hurt knowing that Zhan Ge was hurt enough to leave everything . "Mom I have been talking to him since so long he's a good person mom. He's loving and caring and he'll love me a lot Mumma." I tried to reasonable between my sniffles. "He's a playboy dear. Soon he'll hurt you and leave you. I guess you should rethink. He'll hurt you."

Saying confidently she left the room after stroking my back. I was confused now. I'm hearing too many things against my will. I don't know if she's speaking the truth. But I was scared to be heart broken. I soon wanted to talk about it to Zhan Ge. 

I'm being impatient. I was taking multiple turns in the bed until I was too tired and drifted to sleep late dawn. It wasn't a sweet sleep but nightmare to me. I was asleep yet I could feel fear within my shaking torso.  

A/N: Updates are slower and I'm really sorry about it. Thank you for patience.
