Zhan's Yibo

CHAPTER 8

Xiao Zhan was right when he thought of Mi Ya Mark as his diversion from all the heartache and depression he was in.

He was in his office when a phone call diverted his attention but it was not his phone. He jerked his head at the realization that it was Wang Yibo's ringtone who walked pass him, attending his call.

"Hey Liu! Long time no see. Do you want me to kill you?" Suddenly, Wang Yibo's mood was all refreshed. Xiao Zhan's heart felt the emptiness that walking away of the other had awared in him. 

"Actually, I called for this. Can we two meet? It's long since you're back on the track and I want to see you." Liu Hai Kuan was beaming through the phone. "Done. At my coffee place. Be there at 6." Yibo tossed the phone at his side table. He was very happy. He had very few people in his life, only the true ones, he made sure of that.

Liu Hai Kuan was outside the coffee house when Yibo parked his Yamaha R1 to the side. Liu moved over to Yibo. Yibo pushed his open face visor of helmet to look directly at Liu. He climbed off the bike. Liu ran his hand over the seat.
"Custom levers, custom exhaust, power commander and H.I.D. lights!" Liu complimented the beauty while Yibo took off his helmet and swayed his head side ways then raised his both eyebrows at him. He looked so sexy that Liu held his breath at his friend's appealing demeanor.

There was no sign of sadness or hurt in his bright, shining eyes. Liu was relieved at his own analysis. Both moved inside the house. They were seated face to face and the conversation started, "I'm so happy to see you like this Ibo. God knows, I was so worried about you but-"

"but you couldn't come to see me."

"You know Ibo I was-"

"I know you were in States. And you came-"

"Today at 11. And my first call was to you."

Yibo's all sulkiness washed down. His heart felt pure happiness.

"And what about the kid, Wang Lei? What are you gonna do about him?"

"What about him? I will raise him to be a responsible person and once he is mature enough, he will decide on his own what to do with his life. Currently he has got a desk job at my company. And by the way, he misses you."

"I will meet him." replied Liu with a comfortable smile on his face. Yibo's phone lit up indicating a call. "Think of the devil and devil is here." Smiling, he received the call, "Yeah little man?"
"I'm with my friend Liu Kuan at the coffee house that's why." Probably he was inquired about being late. "Okay." Yibo cut off the call and placed his phone on the table. "He's nearby, coming over to see you now."

Mi Ya and Xiao Zhan were shopping groceries at the supermarket as Mi Ya needed the essential items for the kitchen which Xiao Zhan had ignored while living all by himself. Xiao Zhan had both his hands full of bags. Mi Ya was walking two steps ahead than Xiao Zhan with only a purse over his right shoulder, giving them both a typical couple look. Xiao Zhan suddenly came to halt as he saw a lively scene.

Yibo, Liu Kuan and Wang Lei came out of the coffee house while talking and laughing to each other. The scene appeared to be a complete one. A happy Yibo with the people who he now seem to care with no shadow of Xiao Zhan in his life. Xiao Zhan was in the background, why his heart sank at the sight he sought. Mi Ya turned to Xiao Zhan when she noticed no presence following her behind. Xiao Zhan's face was pale. Mi Ya rushed towards Xiao Zhan, "Are you okay? What is it Zhan babe?" Xiao Zhan managed his emotions within a spur of moment. "I'm okay." He slid his arm across the slim waist of Mi Ya, shifting all the bags in his left hand, as soon as he felt Yibo noticed him.

Mi Ya suddenly stopped and cupped his both hands around Xiao Zhan's face. "What are you hiding Xiao Zhan? There's nothing serious about your health, is there?" "Oh love, there's nothing like that. I'm more than fine." Xiao Zhan was puzzled at this sudden reaction, keeping in the back of his mind that Yibo was looking in this direction. He put down the bags he was carrying in his hand then gently removed her hands, taking in his own. Yibo rolled his eyes in indifference. But Xiao Zhan can't act indifferent. He had to suffer the livelihood of the view he has seen. 

Why the suffering lingers while Yibo did not bother to care?
Why it always affect Xiao Zhan whenever he sees Yibo oblivious of him?
Why can't his heart move on? He has told his heart that it was all wrong and it meant nothing in real life, then why is it all bothering him too much?

The hard he tries to ignore Yibo, the harder his heart acknowledges him. What is it in Yibo that will be not in other person, a woman probably whom Zhan can fall for.
Why in his life it has to be Yibo? 
Oh God! He was going insane while shifting in his bed later that night.
