"Nong... Kim has lost a lot of blood..."

Chay just closed his eyes. Did he ask how much blood Kim lost? No! All he wanted was for them to bring his Kim to him!

"Kim... bring him to me..." Chay coughed, his body shaking. "Kim—"

"Chay, he... Kim isn't well, he—"

"I... help..." Chay said.

Porsche shook his head immediately, "no, Chay, you can't help him now. You are barely helping yourself!"

"I'm gonna h-help him!" Every word that Chay pushed out of his mouth hurt more and more. His lungs were drowning him, pulling him down. They felt like they were full of blood. He would be dead a long time ago if he didn't have his power—the power that he realised he had only because of Kim. Maybe he would be dead even before his body would hit the concrete.

Kim saved his life, and now Chay would save Kim's. He would rather never get better than lose his Kim. He needed Kim with him right now! He couldn't move, couldn't get out of bed, and go look for Kim himself no matter how he tried, how much he wanted to. So, they had to bring Kim to him. Had to! Had to! Even if that would mean that he would have to use his power on his own brother.

"No, no, Chay, I won't let you waste your power on someone else when you look—look like this. You are fucking dying right in front of my eyes! My own brother."

"Wasting his power?" Kinn's voice cuts through the conversation. "So keeping my brother alive is a waste of your brother's power? That's how it is? Your brother's life matters, but my brother's life doesn't?"

Porsche shook his head, quickly standing up and stepping towards Kinn, "that's not what I meant, love. He—"

"Porchay said that he wants Kim here with him so, he will get Kim here with him. I believe that this is not something up to you to decide, but only up to him."

"He needs to heal first. For fuck sake, Kinn!"

"And my brother doesn't?"

"Hia," Chay tried to raise his voice as much as he could. He looked right at his brother and waited for Porsche to look back at him, and when he did, Chay just said it, "bring me m-my boyfriend!"

He watched his brother's eyes turn empty for a moment and then Porsche turned around and left the room with Kinn following right after.

Chay closed his eyes, trying to numb all the pain he felt. Just taking a deep breath, as deep as he could...

He couldn't move his legs nor his hands—they were broken on so many places. He wondered how long it was going to take him to patch himself up back together. He wanted... wanted to get better as soon as possible, wanted to heal Kim, make him feel better, make them both feel better and then—then Chay will marry Kim. He should have done it a long time ago.
