 A week has passed and Yibo decided to isolate himself in his room that he even missed academy for it. He's natural complexion had came back and though he looked alright outside, he still felt so weak that even climbing up the stairs or moving around then garden exhaust him easily

'I'm tired' he thought as he slammed his body in his bed

He loved the silence surrounding him that he almost fell asleep if only not of the sudden, loud bang of his door swinging open and Lusi jumping on him with a loud scream of

"I MISS YOU!" she shouted that he almost went deaf

"can't breath" he said and finally Lusi rolled on her back and Yibo sat down slowly

"what are you doing here?" he ask the others who was looking back at him with a smile

"you missed academy and we thought-"

"I insisted" Lusi cut Yang Yang up who just shake his head

"SHE insisted that we check on you" Yang Yang finished explaining

"you just arrived?" Yibo asked

"mhm" Johnny replied

The three then notice how Wei Ying or better yet Xiao Zhan was too quiet and Yibo not even looking at him

"and I'm hungry" Lusi suddenly said grabbing Johnny's and Yang Yang's hand and dragging them out of the room

"Zhan you stay here and watch Yibo were just going to grab some snacks" she said and shut the door close before the three walked away

While the two left in the room stayed silent, Zhan stayed standing in the corner while Yibo lay down again and covered his eyes with his arm, it was too silent for their liking but both didn't even know what to say. After that incident, Zhan and Yibo never spoke to each other again though Zhan started to catch things up with his parents with his memories coming back it became more easy for him now yet he also felt like he lost something special along that process of him getting back his family

"how are you?" Zhan spoke first

"fine, how about you?" Yibo replied still not moving

Zhan didn't answer and walk towards Yibo and sat beside him

"won't you look at me?" Zhan asked and Yibo still didn't move his hand

"can't we go back to what we used to be?" he again ask and earned still no reply

"won't you really look at me now?" Yibo wanted to answer yet he can't bring himself knowing deep inside him he blames himself for what happened to Zhan's family and he doesn't want Zhan to know and see it

"Yibo" Zhan called out but Yibo still didn't responded nor moved

"are you really just going to ignore me now Yibo" Zhan said facing Yibo who just look away once again and stayed silent

"I shouldn't have come back" Zhan said standing up

"returning to this place was a bad decision, I should've stayed in the human realm" Yibo hearing this finally look at the back of Zhan who's already walking away

"I was suppose to be the one that's been there" Yibo said lowly but enough for Zhan to hear that made him stop from opening the door
