Ming POV

It's been a few days already since everything happened. Yo was still in the hospital but getting much better and he'll be discharged soon. Kit has told us about Pha's threat. We also still haven't mended our friendship after I burst out at him. I tried to talk to him but every time I entered the room he would go silent and look the other way. I hurt him I know but am I really in the wrong?

Forth told me that he said to Yo to give me some space until I cool off and I have. I wanted to fix our relationship but Yo wouldn't talk to me. My heart ached thinking that our friendship was over. Over that past few days, I started becoming more secluded, quiet, and just not my usual self. Forth even noticed it and he was getting worried for me but I told him I'm fine every single time he asked and I gave him a kiss to reassure him.

Right now I was just sitting in the room with Forth and Yo. It was the same as usual just quiet and no one talking. Then all of a sudden it seemed liked Forth cracked he stood up knocking the chair back into the wall. I looked at him surprised at his actions but Yo looked at him with fear.

"That's it! You two need to put on your big boy pants and fix your friendship. I'm on the last straw! I can tell you both are hurting and it hurts me too! It hurts too much to see you both in pain. I can't be on the sidelines anymore trying to reassure you both." He said frustrated while rubbing his temple.

I heard Yo's scared voice "I-I'm sorry. This is all my fault again."

His head was down but you could see the tears dropping onto the blanket. Forth was about to speak up but I interrupted him.

"It's not your fault Yo. It was my fault for yelling at you. I made you hurt here." I said walking to him and placing my hand on his chest over his heart.

His heart was beating really fast I could feel the thumps and it was sporadic.

"Can I be your friend again Yo?" I asked.

"You were always my friend and still are Ming. I was afraid that I would only anger you again."

I wipe away his tears with my hand and tell him "You will never anger me. I was just filled with pent up rage that day. I'm sorry Yo."

I hugged him and he hugged me back. 

"Sorry to both of you. For getting mad at you two like that. It was just frustrating seeing you two hurt each other." Forth apologized.

"It's okay P'Forth I know you were just trying to help us," Yo said.

Forth decided to join in on our hug. This hug together with all three of us felt good it almost felt like it's how it's supposed to be...... forever I thought.

After we were done hugging Forth decided to head out to get us food from the cafeteria. I was here with Yo. I was smiling like an idiot because now that we're talking all the weight has been lifted on my shoulders.

Yo and I were talking for a bit about what Forth and I have done over the time we graduated to now and something still bothered me. It seemed like there was a tinge of sadness when we talked. I was curious but I didn't want to press him because I just got him back.

"You'll be outta here soon Yo," I said.

"Finally no more hospital food." He giggled.

His recovery has been going well but there were still things he kept hidden from us. We noticed that if we tried to make physical contact he would flinch. It was probably a normal reaction due to 'HIM'. It saddened me to see him this way.

"Yeah, now we can head back to your place and make some real food," I said.

"We? I think I'd rather stick to hospital food than your cooking." He mocked

"But Yooooooooo. My cooking isn't that bad." I said with a pout on my face.

"Oh, of course, it isn't. It's worse. Haha. You almost burnt my family's house down by just using a toaster! Like how do you do that?!" He said mocking me with a gentle smile.

I could only pout at his remarks. He was right though. My cooking was abysmal.

"Don't worry Nong Yo I'll cook for you. I do it every day for Ming." Forth said smiling.

We didn't notice he had walked in with the food but he wasn't alone. He was with two cops.

"Are you Wayo?" One cop asked.

Wayo just nodded.

"Well, sir we will need to do some questioning with you in private. Is that okay?" The other asked.

"That's fine with me," Wayo said.

We walked out the door and waited outside. It took about twenty-five minutes before the cops came out. Forth and I looked at each other before walking in. Yo had his head hanging low. Something was wrong. We walked up to Yo and hugged him he seemed to calm down a little and snuggled more into our hug.

"What's wrong Yo?" Forth and I asked in unison.

"They asked me questions about Pha and I was fine with answering them. They asked me if he had ever ....... me. I told them no. I lied....."

"If he ever what? And why did you lie?" I asked curiously.

He was sobbing profusely and he held onto my wrist his grip tightening.

"I lied because I wouldn't forgive myself if I let him rot in jail. Even for so much, he has done to me I don't want to hurt anyone and don't want him to spend his life that way I'm just hoping he can find happiness one-day just, not with me. I also told them I didn't want to press charges. I just said a restraining order would suffice." Wayo said.

"That's fine Nong Yo. It's your choice and we respect it." Forth said.

"There's something else isn't there?" I asked and I felt Yo tense up.

"To answer the second part of what you asked me Ming about what else he did to me. He also..." Yo was crying harder now not letting anything in "h-he also r-raped me."

I felt Forth's grip tighten and I'm sure Yo felt it as well because he continued "I can sense you're angry Forth but please please keep this a secret I don't want anyone to worry more. I trust and care for both you and Ming so please just let it be." He asks

"As much as I want to kill that bastard because he's getting away scot-free I will respect your wishes. But if I see him again then I'm not holding back." Forth said.

Fuck I can't believe that bastard. I'm also going respect Yo's wishes for now just like Forth but I will try to convince him. He needs to speak up not now but eventually. Were going to take extra precautionary measures to make sure Yo is safe from him. I don't want to see my Yo hurt again. Wait did I just say my Yo. Whatever nows not the time to think about that first things first is Yo's safety.

"I won't tell anyone Yo because I care for you and respect your wishes as well. However, I am going to contact your parents about you not pressing charges. We're also going to make sure we put up extra security because we haven't told you yet but Pha made some threats to Kit and it sounded genuine." I said.

Yo nodded knowing he had no choice anyway. As much as Forth and I wanted to kill that monster we cared for Yo too much to hurt him and go against his wishes.
