3rd POV.

"YOUR BOTHER!?" Kit was shocked. Yo just smiled.

"Your brother... Is Ming? My ex?" Kit asked. Yo nodded.

"So you're dating his ex, and he's dating yours?" Kit asked and they both looked over at the couple who woke up at the sound of them talking.

"Yeah, it's weird but it works," Ming mumbled and hugged Forth tightly while yawning.

"Odd kid," Forth mumbled but smiled down at Ming, and pulled his hair away from the younger's forehead so he could check his fever.

"Better?" Ming asked.

"A little bit, you're freezing though," Forth said and held Ming's hands to warm him up.

Yo and Kit smiled at their cuteness.

"What are you doing here Yo?" Ming asked and Yo gave him that look...

The 'I need money' look.

"Yo... I just gave you 15,286฿ ($500) two weeks ago, how'd you blow it already?" Ming just was shocked that Yo went through his allowance so quick.

"I...uh..." Yo was stuttering and hid behind Kit.

"He went a bit overboard on food... And a new phone... And a puppy..." Kit mumbled and Yo hit his arm.

"Food, I get that. I know you needed a new phone, but a puppy? Why'd you get a puppy?" Ming was confused.

"I wanted a puppy since you and mom never let me get one..." Yo mumbled and Ming just shook his head.

"How much more do you need?" Ming asked and took his wallet out from Forth's back-pack. Ming gave it to him so he wouldn't lose it.

"Just 2,752฿ ($90)" Yo said and Ming handed over the money.

"You always carry that much?" Forth didn't know Ming had that type of money.

"Not all the time, I just haven't been to the bank recently," Ming said and Forth was just confused and wondering how and why Ming has that type of money if he doesn't have a job...

"You haven't told him?" Yo asked and Ming shook his head.

"He'd probably leave me, I mean Kit did, so why wouldn't he?" Ming asked and got off Forth and sat on the couch next to Yo.

"Why would I leave you babe?" Forth asked and made Ming sit on his lap again. He hugged the younger and Ming tensed up.

"Pha and Beam give him money all the time, you know how rich they are," Yo half lied and half told the truth.

Forth was even more confused.

"Why would I leave you? They're our friends, they just wanna help out a bit," Forth was more confused than the author (of this book) in a math class. (😂)

"If you knew how we got the money you'd leave me..." Ming mumbled.

"You'll find out soon, we're going drinking tomorrow. You'll see Ming getting money for basically just being there," Yo said and tossed a bag over to Ming before him and Kit left.

Forth was confused and Ming was scared.

"What are they talking about?" Forth asked.

"Iusedtoworkattheclubasa'dancer'..." Ming mumbled through it real fast and then went to take a shower before Forth could say anything.

Secret 2/6: Ming used to be a 'dancer' at a club and still makes money from it even though he no longer works there
