Truthfully your's~ [Beefleaf]

~Shi Qingxuan~

"But why?" Shi Qingxuan's voice rang out in the drawing room's silence.

Shi Wudu had called his younger brother back home in the pretext of
Our mother's terribly sick.

But upon reaching home the later realised that it was all a facade.

Now the Shi family sat together in their drawing room. Mr Shi sat cross-legged on the couch across his sons, next to him sat the frail Mrs Shi. Today she looked far more paler then she ever did.

Shi Wudu's face was set in stone. Their father's suggestion was absurd.

"Why are you sending me to Japan?" Shi Qingxuan asked once again.

"You don't ask those questions to your father boy" Mr Shi said his voice exceedingly cold.

"Brother.. say something" Shi Qingxuan said looking at his brother who now seemed very interested on his tea cup.

Mrs Shi got up and left the room.

Now the drawing room atmosphere felt far more worse.

That's when Shi Qingxuan's phone rang, it was Pei Xu.

Shi Qingxuan looked at his father who seemed to nod, he picked the receiver-

"Yes?" His voice seemed less cheerful.

Did you hear about He Xuan's father?

"He Xuan's what?"

He Xuan's father! He seems to have passed away, early this morning..

"What?" Shi Qingxuan was petrified, "How??"

He seemed to have gotten into an accident last night, and they had taken him to the emergency ward but he didn't survive... I thought He Xuan had told you...

Shi Qingxuan turned to look at his father and brother, the later shifted uncomfortably on his seat while his father looked colder then usual. He Xuan needed him... he must be so sad... he had to go.

"I'll call you back" Shi Qingxuan said and ended the call.

"Father..."

His father seemed emotionless.

"I will leave, I will go to Japan but let me just meet him once."

                                •°•°•°•

The car screeched to a halt in front of the He family house.

Shi Qingxuan rushed inside. He had come with Pei Xu and Xie Lian, the later had not left with Hua Cheng for his sake.

They met He Xaun's grandma who directed them towards He Xuan.

"He has not come out of his bedroom" she said.

Pei Xu and Xie Lian stayed behind and let Shi Qingxuan have his time alone with He Xuan. Upon reaching the bedroom door Shi Qingxuan knocked softly but received no answer from within.

"He Xuan?" Shi Qingxuan called softly.

Shuffling noises could be heared from within.

"I want to see you.." Shi Qingxuan said pausing.

The door opened softly. He Xuan looked nonchalant as he always did but his eyes flashed at the former with hatred.

"Why are you here?" He asked his voice cold.

"I heard about your father and-"

"And? You have come to comfort me?" He Xuan said his tone laced with irony.

"Why are you?-"

He Xuan pulled the former into the room and threw him on his bed.

"Everytime" He said as he climbed on top of him on the bed (on his fours), "Everytime I am with you I lose someone... do you know how frustrating it is?"

"What are you?-"

He Xuan's lips suddenly met his silencing him.

"You should have left when you had the chance" he said.
