Love Me As You Love Him

20

Zhan locked himself at home for a week. Yubin sent a message saying that he couldn't leave his wife and that he wanted to end his relationship with Zhan. Zhan read the message while crying with all his heart. his heart is broken. everything he had given to yubin was in vain. Yubin prefers his wife than Zhan. Where did Yubin's promises go? where? zhan wondering where the promise went? where did the love go?

Zhan's friends also contacted him but Zhan never answered the call. even yibo often goes to his house. knocking on the door of his house, pleading to let him in but Zhan is not ready to leave his house.

Zhan's health is also deteriorating. he is getting pale and thin. often vomiting. but Zhan ignored all that. his heart was completely broken.

the morning light began to touch Zhan's face. Zhan woke up and saw the clock showing 7.30 am. he immediately got up and washed his body. after showering, she started baking bread and ran to the room to get ready. zhan opening the door after eating breakfast. as soon as he opened the door a figure fell on Zhan's body. "eh yibo?" said zhan. yibo raised his face and smiled "finally you're come out. let's have breakfast." said yibo. "I've already had breakfast. you better buy breakfast for you. I want to go to college." said zhan. "no!! let's skip it. we're going to the beach." invite yibo

Zhan was surprised. yibo is behaving strangely. "Yibo, I haven't been to college for many days." Reply Zhan. "How about we go to the theme park?" Yibo suggested without ignoring Zhan's rejection. Zhan continued walking towards the bus stop. "Zhan, where are you going?" asked Yibo. "college." Reply Zhan. yibo tried to stop zhan from entering college but failed. Zhan insists on entering college.

as soon as Zhan entered the university grounds, all the students looked at Zhan while whispering. "Look, who's coming. He still wants to study here." "If I were him, I'd be ashamed to come here again after what happening." "he look innocents but he is actually the devil in disguise."

hearing a lot of insults from the students made Zhan lower his head and immediately head to his class. Zhan's friends see Zhan and ask why he came to class and is he ok. Zhan just nodded his head.

the lesson that day was very stressful. not only the students, but also the professors looked at Zhan with dislike looks. the day also seems to move slowly. Zhan really hoped the time would pass quickly so he could go home soon. he also has to work.

after the class was over, Zhan was called by the superiors of the university and Zhan was suspended from his studies. they accuse zhan get close to yubin for get a high CGPA. once done, Zhan immediately returned home. there was no reason for him to be there anymore.

*******
yibo was in class busy writing notes and brief notes given by his professor but was interrupted by the vibration of his mobile phone which often rang. at first yibo ignored him but finally yibo asked his professor's permission to leave class for a while and answer the call.

"hello zhan. we'll talk later. I'm in class." said yibo as soon as he pressed answer. "I'm sorry. I'm nurse Ling from Beijing Hospital. I found your number on the call history. So I called you. The owner of this cell phone was admitted to the hospital because he was found unconscious by one of the pedestrians around the sidewalk outside the university. If you know the owner's family Please ask them to go to the hospital." reply to yibo callers.

after turning off the call, yibo went straight to his desk and took his bag and left his university after asking his professor's permission. yibo headed to the beijing hospital. when he got there yibo was taken to zhan's bed. Zhan looked more lethargic and pale than this morning. "is he alright?" asked yibo to the nurse. "he hmmm who are you?" asked the nurse. "I am his friend. It was nurse Ling who called me and informed me that Zhan was admitted to the hospital." replied yibo. "so. can you contact the patient's family?" asked the nurse again. "He only has a father and his father works in the British." said yibo. "what about other family or guardians?" asked the nurse again. "As far as I know he only has a father." reply yibo. "I have something big to tell you and I need adults only." informed the nurse and left.

Yibo sat next to Zhan while holding Zhan's hand tightly. yibo's phone suddenly rang and the caller was zuocheng. "hello ge. can you help me?" asked Yibo. "Help? Help what? I called you to ask you to buy kitchen tissues." replied zuocheng. "Ge. I'm at the hospital. Zhan entered the hospital and the hospital asked adults to go to the hospital. Can you help me?" asked yibo hoping zuocheng would help him. "OK. Wait there for a while. I'll be there 30 minutes from now." replied zuocheng.

***********
Zhan woke up from his sleep. he looked around and this was the hospital and not his room. he wanted to get up but his hand hurt. he looked at his hand and found that his hand was injected with an IV drop. zhan pulled out the injection and started to leave the bed but when he got outside the room he saw yibo and zuocheng ge in the waiting room. zuocheng signaled to yibo that zhan was there. yibo looked at zhan and headed towards him. "Let's go home. I've taken care of the registration and payment. This is your medicine." said yibo while handing over a plastic bag containing medicine.

Zhan took the plastic bag and looked inside and took the medicine. there are 2 types of medicine in it. 1 is long red and 1 is dark brown. He wonder what medicine this is.

in the car zuocheng said "you have to take the medicine." Zhan just nodded. "Zhan, the red one is sangobion, your blood-enhancing drug, and the dark one is folic acid." said yibo again this time. "what medicine is this?" asked Zhan. "Zhan, you have to be strong. What I'm going to say will probably surprise you." Zuocheng said. "do I have a dangerous disease?" Zhan asked anxiously. "no. but you're pregnant Zhan. you're 2 months pregnant. the doctor said you're deficient and your Hb level is also very low so always take this medicine, ok." zuocheng said softly.

zhan was shocked and tears started to flow. he touched his stomach which was still deflated. "I'm 2 months pregnant?" Zhan asked as if in disbelief. "yes zhan you are pregnant." said yibo. "but I don't feel anything." Reply Zhan. "No Zhan. Not everyone who is pregnant will have symptoms. Some don't show all the symptoms, for example you. You don't vomit or feel nauseous." Zuocheng said.

zhan looked at zuocheng in disbelief. "I'm scared. What should I do? It's hard for me to take care of myself, how am I going to take care of this baby. This baby's father also doesn't want to be with me anymore." Zhan said in tears while hugging her body. zuocheng looked at zhan from the view mirror. yibo turned towards the window while lifting his chin. he felt angry and sad.

Zhan's crying didn't stop until he fell asleep. yibo lifted zhan into the house while zuocheng helped by opening the door for them to enter. Yibo tells Zuocheng that he will always be by Zhan's side and take care of him throughout his pregnancy. zuocheng agrees with yibo. he wants yibo to be happy. if this will make yibo happy he will agree but he also reminds yibo to keep studying and succeed.

*******
Zhan decided to stop studying. yibo stopped him from stopping but zhan insisted on stopping. he is not willing to hear himself insulted and despised. not to mention that she is now pregnant. finally yibo gave in and agreed with zhan's decision.

Zhan also sent a letter saying that he quit studying at the university and he also received a call from his father asking if it was true that he quit the university. zhan unreservedly told everything to his father. listening to that, Zhan's father felt disappointed with Zhan. he also scolded zhan for not taking care of himself.

The relationship between Zhan and his father is strained. Zhan knew his father was angry with him even though Zhan's father still picked up his calls but from the tone of Zhan's father's voice he sounded unhappy as always. Zhan's father has not contacted Zhan. only zhan will contact his father. Zhan's father also only answered one word. eventually their relationship finally broke off.

during zhan 2 weeks after finding out zhan's pregnancy, yibo always stopped by her house with food cooked by zuocheng and he would make sure zhan ate her medicine. after finishing lecture, yibo will definitely go home.

zhan is still working even though yibo forbids it. said yibo, he will help zhan but zhan doesn't want to depend on yibo. yibo is not the father of this baby. zhan doesn't want to burden yibo with this content. however, Zhan is grateful for yibo's presence throughout these 2 weeks. yibo will accompany him to the hospital for a baby checkup, treat him and take care of him. Zhan never felt lonely even though his father was gone. every weekend and weeknight their friends would come and sleep at his house. they will chat, joke, and play. to some extent makes Zhan feel happy and not sad or lonely.
