~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    Early in the morning, Wei Ying walked outta his room to see his parents chatting happily with Xue Yang who still wore the clothes Wei Ying gave him as Xue Yang passed them freshly brewed coffee.

    Wei Ying walked up and his mother greeted him.

     "Hello A-Ying, I didn't know Xue Yang was staying over" She said.

    Wei Ying smiled "He lived pretty far, so I said he could stay the night." Wei Ying sat next to his father.

     "I see, well, Xue Yang makes pretty good coffee" His father said.

    "Really? Lemme try" Wei Ying sat up.

    "I gotchu babe" Xue Yang said. 

    Cangse smiled as Xue Yang happily poured Wei Ying a cup of coffee as Wei Ying's father, Changze, slightly shook his head from the way Wei Ying and Xue Yang interacted with each other. Xue Yang gave Wei Ying his cup off coffee.

    "Thanks honey~" Wei Ying said.

    "Anytime babe~" Xue Yang said as he walked off to pour himself a cup.

    Wei Ying took a sip "Wow, this is pretty good" Wei Ying said.

    "I told you" Changze said.

     Cangse nodded as she took yet another sip "Xue Yang, where have you learned to make such delicious coffee?"

    "...I worked in a little cafe when I was younger" Xue Yang bullshitted.

    Wei Ying knew he was actually talking about the modernized brothel, but he didn't say anything.

     "A cafe?" Changze asked.

     "Yea, and that retirement home I work at now? We make coffee quite a bit for the residents and the caregivers as well, so I kept up my practice and learned how to improve it" Xue Yang said.

    "Yea? How's work?" Cangse asked.

    "The usual, calm and good until we start serving food. Then everyone's fuckin' busy" Xue Yang sighed out.

    "I see, but the pay's good nonetheless?" Cangse asked.

     "Yea, pay's good, for once I'm on top of my bills. I can actually buy things I need if needed" Xue Yang said, looking proud.

     "I'm glad you're doing better now" Cangse said, smiling happily.

     "Yea, I'm glad now, maybe I could give my apartment some decor" Xue Yang said.

     "Yea, maybe you could start doing that" She said.

    "... After I pay this month's bills.." Xue Yang said.

    "So young, but so mature" Changze said.

    "My life in a nutshell" Xue Yang said, giving Wei Ying a quick side glance.

    "Mn" Wei Ying hummed.

     They continued to chat for a while, it was peaceful until Wei Ying's father decided to break it.

    "Aren't you boys supposed to be getting ready for school?"

    Everyone was quiet.

    "Shit!" Wei Ying and Xue Yang said together.
