Love like Pandora's box

Chapter 31.

"Uncle, look what I made in the school today," Luhan said as he showed the drawing to Yibo.

Yibo took the drawing from his hand and looked at it, he smiled before he ruffled Luhan's hair, "it's pretty."

"Really, then will aunty Sarah like it too?" he asked and Yibo did not reply to that, in the moment of heat he had promised Zhan that he would cut off Sarah, but it was harder than that.

Sarah was his close friend, and she had done a lot for him, how can he just ditch her like that? He felt guilty as well as a little ashamed but then this was perhaps the last chance to repair his relation with Zhan, he had waited for this chance and this opportunity for years.

And in the middle, he had even given up the hope, but fate had given him another chance, how can he let go of that chance after waiting for years. That would just eat him from inside

Yibo kept his hand on his head as he cursed his life, why is it that he has to always make a choice when it comes to Zhan?

Before it was either Zhan or Yuki, right now it was Sarah or Zhan. Why can't he have Zhan without having to lose someone else?

What kind of twisted fate this was?

It was quiet late at night and it was time for Luhan to go to sleep, so after putting Luhan to sleep, Yibo went to do some work, since it was Sunday the next day he could stay up late at night.

And while he was working suddenly the doorbell rang, he looked towards the door and became a little suspicious as to who it might be, he kept his laptop down and walked towards the door and when he peeked from inside he saw that it was Sarah and she didn't look.

It was late at night and she was all alone, he quickly opened the door and saw that she was actually swaying from side to side. She was drunk!

Sarah looked at her him and smiled as she moved ahead but as soon as she took a step forward she lost her balance and fell forward but Yibo was quick to grab her, "Sarah what the hell is wrong with you?"

Sarah smiled as she kept her head over Yibo's shoulder and said, "I am tired."

"And you are drunk as well, what the hell were doing? Drinking out so late at night?"

Sarah looked at Yibo before her became wet and she said, "I was missing Zane, I fucking miss him so much. I also had to go to a business dinner with some of my father's associates and once again my father was trying to set me up with someone. I hate that. How can I marry someone who is not Zane."

Yibo's gently brought her in, as she was cold and she might get sick, Sarah spoke, "Yibo, have I done something wrong?"

Yibo knew why she was asking that and he had no idea how to answer that, "no."

"Then why have you blocked me? What happened? Why are you not answering my calls or texts? What happened?"

"Nothing happened Sarah."

"No, something happened I know that." She said as she held his hand and said, "Yibo, please don't cut me out of your life, you are my close friend and I deeply care about you, I cared about Yuki as well and Luhan as well, Luhan is like my own child. If there is something wrong then say it."

Yibo sighed and said, "You are drunk and tired, you should get some please, we'll talk tomorrow, go to sleep." He said as he helped her walk, he took her to his room and made her sleep on the bed, while he came out of the room and sat on the couch.

He sighed as he rubbed his forehead, what a mess.

The next day Zhan felt rather nervous and anxious when he came to Yibo's house, he was nervous to see that child. 'His' child, the fact that he was a father gave him a huge blow to him, he felt nervous, scared and somewhat happy as well.

He remembered Luhan, he is cute child, Zhan smiled softly when he thought about him.

But then he also thought about how he was going to explain this to Yibo, this was all very bizarre for him as well, he wondered how weird and bizarre I would be for Yibo to think that Luhan's his sister son was also his son.

Zhan himself felt weird to think like that, but what's done was done. It was a drunken mistake. It was not intentional; he had no hidden motives or anything.

He knew that Yibo would understand, after thinking all of this he went near the door of Yibo's house and rang the door bell, he waited anxiously for Yibo to open the door.

The door was soon opened by Yibo who was shocked to see Zhan over there. Yibo looked nervous as if he was caught doing something wrong.

Zhan did not notice that since he had a lot going on, in his mind and he said, "there is something I want to talk about."

"What is it?"

"Are you not going to invite me in? this is my first time in your house."

Yibo's heart beat quickened, he started to sweat he gave an awkward smile and moved to the side, "come in."

Zhan walked in the house, it was small two bedroom house, and just looking at the doors anyone can tell which room belonged to a child and which room belonged to Yibo.

"Where is Luhan?"

"He is sleeping."

"I see, he has his own room?"

"Yeah, but he sleeps with me most of the time."

"I see." Zhan said, he rubbed his hands together while Yibo asked, "would you like something? Tea? coffee?"

"No, I am fine, I wanted to talk to something important, it's about Luhan, this might sound bizarre and weird but you see-"

He was interrupted when he heard the door of Yibo's room opened and Sarah walked out of the room wearing Yibo's hoodie, while Yibo's eyes widened when he saw her, but when he saw Zhan he thought that he was going to have a heart attack because of the expression on his face.
