Wayo POV

*Yawn*

I slowly opened my eyes to get my eyes used to the surrounding lights. However, once I was fully awake I came to a realization of the events that had transpired. My body finally registering the pain it had endured. The pain resonating the feeling as if I was still being beaten. Tears welled up in my eyes and I started to cry again. My hands clenching into a fist.

However, I couldn't clench my left hand because there was another hand intertwined with mine. It brings me back into the focus on where I am. I looked over and saw it was Ming's hand. He was asleep his head resting on the bed. He must've not felt me squeezing his hand because he didn't move or make a noise. He just slept there like a rock. I chuckled softly and smiled. That smile then quickly turned into one of sadness. I didn't want anybody to get involved. This was my problem, my fault, and I needed to deal with it myself. This was all my fault and my problem. I just laid there mentally beating myself up for what happened.

What seemed like an eternity of purgatory waiting for something to happen it did. Someone slowly opened the door trying to not make any noise. It was Forth. He looked at me with a face mixed with sadness, worry, and anger.

"How are you feeling Yo?" He asks.

"Everything hurts physically, mentally, and emotionally," I answer honestly.

"I'm sorry Forth..." I say turning my head the opposite way of him.

"Sorry for what Yo?" He says curiously.

"For getting you guys involved in my problems. It's all my fault. Every single thing. I deserve everything he did to me." I confess while tears stream down my face.

"Is that really what you think Yo? Because that isn't the case. You deserved none of it and you shouldn't have to suffer for it. This is not your fault! It's his!" He says his voice getting slightly louder as he talked.

With my head still in the opposite direction, I reply "But it is my fault Pha is the way he is. I made him lose his job for visiting him and showing everyone that he is a "faggot."."

I winced at my own words.

"Once he was labeled a "fag" his parents couldn't take the humiliation and disowned him and cut ties with him. I ruined his life by taking away the things he loved. He lost his family, his job, and his dream. He loved being a Doctor Forth. I did him wrong. I should've just not met him at his job that day. He then turned to alcohol and blamed me for everything and he was right to blame me. The beatings I've taken were all deserving. He loved me and I ruined his life." I continued.

"BUT IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT! IT'S HIS FAULT! IF HE REALLY LOVED YOU THEN HE WOULDN'T HAVE DONE THIS TO YOU YO! HE MAY HAVE HAD A ROUGH TIME BUT BEATING YOU DOESN'T JUSTIFY THINGS. HE'S A GOOD FOR NOTHING SCUMBAG AND HE DOESN'T DESERVE YOURS OR ANYONE'S SYMPATHY!" a second voice interjects loudly.

The source of the voice came from Ming. He must have woken up and heard me. I've never seen my best friend so angry. He had tears streaming down his face. He sat there staring at me.

"Why didn't you just tell us Yo? Why?" He asks as Forth comes up from behind hugging Ming.

"Because I didn't want to worry you or get you involved. I thought I could handle it by myself." I answered.

"And the solution to your problem is by ending up like this or even dead if we hadn't come to rescue you?! I am your best friend Yo! Heck, I am your childhood friend. You would always tell me anything and everything but now you keep quiet. You should've told us and We would've been there sooner to help you Yo! Do you not trust me anymore Yo?" he scolds.

His words felt like a knife had gone through my heart.

My mouth kept silent but my mind saying "I do trust you, Ming! You're my best friend!"

"Yo? Answer me?" he asked in a sad tone. I was too shocked by his words to speak my mind. "I guess that's a no then." He says with his head hanging down staring at the floor.

Ming loosens from Forth's hug and my hand. He then gets up and turns to walk out the door. I try reaching for his hand but he brushed it off. My heart ached when he did so.

I tried to call for him but Forth came up to me and said "Just let him go and cool off. You can explain to him once he has calmed down. I could tell you wanted to say something but the words wouldn't come out. But don't worry Yo it will be fine we are here for you. I'll sit with you to keep you company the doctors told me your parents are on their way but it's taking them a while since there is a lot of traffic."

He takes the seat next to me the same chair Ming was sitting at. He starts singing a lullaby. Although he didn't say anything I knew that it was for me. So I once again close my eyes to get some rest.

"Your voice is soothing Forth," I say

"Thanks, Yo." I hear him whisper to me.

The aching pain of my body eventually subsides and I slowly drift off to sleep.

A/N short and sweet.
