PATIENT #102191

"Airah is safe from danger already." Yi Xing thanked the doctor before going back to her room, he's carrying pancakes and coffee for both of them.

"Hey, sunshine. Wake up, it's breakfast time." he kissed her forehead, Airah answered with a moan "Sleepyhead, of course." he sat and stared at her sunshine.

"Please, I'm begging you. D-Don't send her back to Philippines." he told her father over the phone "I will do everything, I promise. This will never happen again. I will not let anyone hurt her, Uncle." his voice pleading, Yi Xing felt so hopeless, he has to do this or else, his mind will go crazier... he'll lose every bit of sanity left to him.

He can't let someone he loves away from him. Never his sunshine. His schedules have been his problems since then now that her father is taking her back to the Philippines, it will be harder for them to see each other... he can't take that.

"I want to be straightforward to you, Yi Xing. I am doing this for my own daughter's sake. I know you can protect her, but you need to understand me as well. I want to send my daughter back not just because of what happened, but because both of you are depending too much on each other." he closed his eyes as he sighed.

"I like you for my daughter very much, but both of you need to learn how to stand on their own. It will make your relationship stronger. Sometimes, my son... you need to let go for a while. Let all the issues fade. Then we can talk about my daughter again."

"If... If I get the suspect-"

"Then we can discuss again, son. Still, Airah is going back to the Philippines." he sighed again in defeat "I understand, Uncle. Thank you. I will be back in China and will go straight to the hospital to see my sunshine."

"Before we end our conversation today, I just want to let you know that she kept on whispering your name though she was unconscious. That's how much my daughter loves you. Stay strong for each other, okay?" he forced a smile, Airah kept on thinking about him... he's always in her mind though she was the one hurt.

"Y-Yi Xing?" Airah's eyes are still blurry but she knows it's her man beside her "Sunshine." he leaned to hug her "Y-You're here now." she said "I'm late, I'm sorry." he held her hand and helped her to sit "It's okay, you're here now, I'm happy." he cupped her face and check all her bruises "Pangit na ba ako?"

Yi Xing chuckled "You will never get ugly, you're the most beautiful sunshine for me." they were just staring at each other then he remembered he has to feed her "Pancakes?"

"Hmm!"

He was on his way to get bottles of water when he recognized Yu Yan, he approached her and asked her how is she "I'm doing good, where's Miss Airah?" Yu Yan looked around "Well, she's inside a room, resting. She got hurt so I went back here as soon as I could." he told her "Please take care of her, Miss Airah is such a kind person." he patted Yu Yan's head "I will. Oh, your grandmother."

"Aish, look at my hair." Airah showed the side of her hair which is shaved "That's okay. You will always look great in my eyes-"

"Kuya! Ate!" Kylla shouted running inside her room "What's going on?" Airah asked "Someone leaked what happened to you, look at this."

Both of them sighed as they read the article "You're an idol and no secret cannot be revealed. Let's not think about it? Please continue to brush my hair." he smiled and continued what he was doing, Yi Xing is contented right now. Her parents let him stay in their house, he sleeps in the living room, but that's okay... all he wants is to stay with his sunshine for as long as he can before she goes back to the Philippines "Kuya, do you think... a fan did all of these?" Kylla asked.

"I don't think so. They are wonderful people. They will not do something like this." he replied, Yi Xing tied Airah's hair "Awww, my sunshine!" he happily looked at her in the mirror "It was a man." Airah suddenly mentioned "A man called me and told me he's not yet done after our photos leaked. Also... I just remembered it was a man who pushed me. Sadly, the cameras were under maintainance that night." she took her phone "Here's the number. I tried to call it again, but he won't answer."

"Did you tell these to the police?"

"I didn't..." she said "I will work on this. I will make sure of it, sunshine." she smiled and touched his face "You look very angry right now, I don't like it. Smile na, sheep ko." Yi Xing forced a smile "Smile genuinely. What's important is that I am safe and you're here with me."

"Gosh, you guys are too cheesy! I'm getting out!"

It was Airah's last night in China and her parents decided to hold a send off party for her, Yi Xing is still busy wearing his sheep dress for Airah. He just finished an interview for Trendshealth Magazine and they asked about his lovelife. He proudly talked about Airah in the interview and told them how amazing she is as a person "Wow, the effort! A plus!" Manager Woo sent him two thumbs up "I look cute don't I? Hahaha!"

"Okay, guys. Boyfriend is here!" Yu Qi shouted when he came, Airah gave her a soft and loving stare "My sheep wearing a sheep costume. I love it. You look so cute!" he gave her his gift and hugged her "I'll miss you."

"Yi Xing."

"Yes?" he's busy cutting onions for their beef stake, Airah wants it as their dinner "Well... you don't want me to go back to Philippines, right?" he slowly put the knife down "I will stay, for you. I will beg my father to let me to-"

"Don't, sunshine." he whispered, he grabbed the knife again and continued to cut onions "Your father and I talked, we had an agreement. We can do this, miles apart will not be a problem. I love you and you feel the same way for me. We can be together again in the right time." Airah noticed how tears formed in his eyes "But I will seriously miss you. I don't know if I can handle be too far from you, but we can right? I always have schedules abroad, we made it this far because we love each other, distance is not a problem."

Airah stood up from the bar stool and walked towards him, she cupped his face and wiped his tears "We can definitely do this." Yi Xing leaned his face closer "The onion made me cry too." she chuckled "Do you want me to scold the onion?" he pouted, Airah grabbed the chance to lean closer and give him a soft kiss. Yi Xing's mouth formed an O with what she did...

"Y-You took my first kiss!"

"It's your first?" he nodded "Kissing scenes in shootings are fake. Just camera angles."

"Well, you took my first too." she shyly whispered "Oh damn, my sweet sunshine." eyes wide, Yi Xing claimed her lips.

"Can I sleep here? Beside you?" Airah hit his shoulder "Of course you can, Yi Xing." they looked at her mother "Ruth!" her father shouted "Oh come on, Iñigo, it's not like our daughter is still a kid! Let's go to our room now and leave these lovers alone." her mother pulled her father upstairs leaving them behind.

"Yi Xing." their position is kind of awkward since her bed is smaller than his, Yi Xing's is too close, he's hugging her possessively and she can barely move her body "Hmmm?" she felt her face burning... she can feel his breath against her skin! Oh God! "A-Aren't you too close?" she asked stammering. Instead of moving away, Yi Xing put his leg on top of her and hugged her tighter...

Oh my God. Iligtas niyo po ako. This man can seriously eat my senses alive!

"Pagbigyan mo na ako." he whispered and kissed her cheek "Goodnight, sunshine."

She closed her eyes and bit her lip.

"G-Goodnight."

How to sleep?!
