"I order you to kiss me." Zhan said with a smile.

Yibo's eyes widened when he heard that, he thought that perhaps he heard something wrong, and he just stood at his place dumbfounded.

While Zhan spoke again, "I gave you an order you better follow it."

Yibo's ears turned red as he said, "you are not well and—"

"What does that have to do with a gentle and cute kiss? I want a kiss. Come on." Zhan said and, in the end, Yibo sighed as he went ahead and gave Zhan a kiss on the cheek, and it was Zhan's turn to be surprise as he said, "What the hell was that?"

"A kiss."

"That's not called a kiss." Zhan spoke.

"It is called a kiss."

"I was talking about the one that is done on the lips." Zhan said.

Yibo gulped, "Shut up and go back to bed."

"You don't order me."

"I will, you are bedridden anyways what can you do?"

Zhan raised an eyebrow, "you are talking back to me now huh?"

Yibo gave him a small smile, "I see that you are back to normal?"

"Oh, I am not." Zhan said as he sighed and leaned back on the bed, and Yibo sat beside his bed on the chair, he gently held Zhan's hand, before he said, "I was so scared Zhan, you really sucked a life out of me this time."

"I haven't sucked you yet." Zhan said and Yibo closed his eyes before he glared at Zhan, and Zhan laughed, "it's fun to tease you. Your face has turned red."

Yibo huffed as he let go of Zhan's hand and said, "you are impossible, forget it."

"Hey." Zhan said as he grabbed Yibo's hand again and said, "sorry."

Yibo wrapped his fingers around Zhan's hand once again and Zhan said, "so you don't hate me anymore?"

"I never hated you, all those words I just said out of anger."

"So, you still love me?" Zhan asked, before he added, "after all you said that you can never love anyone who is not me."

Yibo smiled as he said, "yes, I do, I love you. Do you remember the words that you said to me before you got into an accident."

"Of course, I do, I have been practising saying those words to you for a long time. I wanted to say them face to face. You know when I was in that situation, it was so hard for me to calm down, I swear I saw my life flashed before my eyes all the moments good and bad. And in the moment, I realized that I wanted to live.

Before there were many times where I wanted to die, when I wish that I wasn't born, when I hated myself, but in that single moment when I thought that I might never be able to see you again or talk about my feelings or meet my son again that was scary, scarier than death.

And you know what I have suddenly realized that I was so lucky to meet you again twice, suddenly I feel that life has given me a chance.

A chance to have a family, have someone to love me. I am not going to lose it again this time, I want to give us a chance Yibo, only if you agree."

Yibo smiled and said, "Zhan... I..."

"You can take your time to answer."

Yibo shook his head, as he said, "let's talk when you are better."

"I can't wait to get out of here I hate hospitals." Zhan grumbled, "I don't know how am I supposed to feel good in a place which is my nightmare."

Yibo spoke, "you really hospitals a lot?"

"That's an understatement, if it would have been upto me, I would have run out of here the second I opened my eyes, this bed, this room, this smell of medicine and noise of machines they all just bring back bad memories."

Zhan said as his smile was gone again and a sad expression covered his face, "you know I was quiet young when I witnessed people coming to the hospital injured and covered in blood, and families crying loudly, it was scary. I hated that negative environment, and after Zane died, I didn't like hospitals even more."

Zhan glanced at Yibo and saw him staring at him, "what are you looking at?"

"I just like listening to you talk to me so nicely."

Zhan smiled, "get used to it, I talk a lot."

"That's perfect." Yibo said before he added, "by the way I hate your family."

"Oh wow really? Me too."

Yibo laughed and said, "no seriously, they are really too much, now I understand why you wanted to run that bad before and you had to grow up with these kids of people if it wouldn't have been for me, you would have been away from these people... you know when I heard those people talking like that about you, I felt so angry.

I felt rage and I wanted to kill them and you had to listen to those people your whole life, I am sorry Zhan... I feel so mad at myself. And your grandpa did nothing."

Zhan spoke, "if you hadn't done that then how would you have saved your sister?"

"I don't know." He said, "I guess I would have to sell the organs of my parents and then mine to get her back or switch places with her."

Zhan sighed, "I think stealing was the easy option, good that you went for that. If you hadn't saved Yuki then I wouldn't have my son today. By the way what was the age difference between you and Yuki?"

"She was nine years older than me."

"Damn." Zhan said.

"You slept with her, and I want to forget that."

"Me too, I don't remember actually I was drunk I just remembered her face because she looked like you?"

"What?"

"Forget it." Zhan said, "did my family gave you any trouble?"

"No, they didn't, but they did say that they wanted to look for your child."

"Of course." Zhan smiled, "you know Yibo, perhaps the only person who really gave a damn about me in that family was Zane."

"Sarah said that too." Yibo spoke, "Zhan..."

"Hm..."

"Why don't you just leave that family?" Yibo said.

Zhan smiled, "leaving the family means leaving my position, shares everything. Before, I wanted to prove myself to these people you know prove them that I am more than a blood bank, but now I want to slap my previous self for even trying to please these people.

Before these people were my 'family' you know and I didn't really care what they said because I sort of gave up and I was so alone and no one ever spoke for me so I thought that it was just natural whatever they said, and it happens, I got used to it.

Until I met Luhan, you. I finally have people I cherish more than my life, and people I want for fight for, I want to see you two happy and at peace. I now have enough courage and motivation to leave, since I have something more precious now.

And you know what? You should take care of me, after I resign." Zhan added with a smile.

Yibo smiled, "sure, I will."

"Where is Luhan? I want to see him."

"I will bring him here."
