-25- Return ~Part 2~

YIBO'S POV

After I received my phone by mail. I charged the battery and tried to reach ZhanZhan again and again. But he wouldn't talk to me. I know that he was angry because I didn't contact him, but I wanted to explain it to him and so I called him again and again, wrote him several messages, all in vain.

Until I called again and my little Xinxin answered the phone. I was relieved to hear her voice. You may find it hard to believe, but I love the little one like my own child.

As soon as I met her, I immediately realized that she is like my ZhanZhan. Just like her, ZhanZhan was then. Heart first and put aside all doubts. Even though he says she's like her mother, I can say quite clearly, no, she comes exactly after her daddy.

She's sweet, kind, cheerful and absolutely warm. Just the way I met my ZhanZhan. From the first time I saw her, I knew it at once. She's just like her daddy.

Even though Xinxin is younger than Zhan and I were when we first met, she totally reminds me of him. And of the time when he and I became closer as friends and we even made plans for our future.

I think we were eight or nine years old when we started planning our future together. We were going to finish school together, go to the university together and then work in the same company and buy a house.

Those plans always stayed the same. Until the moment I fell in love with him. Because then I secretly added that we would love each other, be a happy couple and maybe get married.

When I met Zhan again after more than seven years here in Beijing, it was totally weird. His family obviously loves secrets. So you have to imagine that in the days when Zhan and Xinxin were upstairs in the house, I was also in the house without Zhan's parents telling me that he was there.

I had another emotional relapse, I would call it that. And cried my eyes out to them because I missed Zhan so much. And it was only on the last day of their stay, that they got tired of secrets and called me. Zhan's father said, "If you want to see Zhan, hurry. He's at the playground, but he's leaving today."

I rushed over there immediately. I wondered on the way there if he was there to reminisce. Until I found out the real reason. Xinxin! When he said she is his daughter, I collapsed inside.

The man I love and have been waiting for, for over seven years is married and has a child. The man who always told me he was not into girls is married to a woman and has a child with her.

Then I found out his wife is dead. I looked at the little girl and I felt so sorry for them. I saw in Zhan's eyes that he loved her. It was like someone drove a dagger through my broken heart.

But then I also saw how Zhan looked at me and I recognized the same look he had back then. I knew he cared about me, that after all these years he still cared. I just knew it.

So I told myself that this is your chance, take it and do something about it, and above all make sure that you don't lose Zhan again this time. I knew, of course, that he was a father now and I was kind of glad. Because I thought that if things worked out with him and me, then maybe I could be a father one day. A father to his sweet daughter.

In life, I never thought that it would happen so quickly. But I admit that after the day, or rather the few hours we had in Beijing, I loved the little one very much. Especially because she reminded me of Zhan as he was then.

With her, I remembered all the plans that Zhan and I made. And once again, my plans changed. I plan to move in with Zhan, work in California, be a good dad to Xinxin. To fall asleep every night with Zhan in my arms, kissing and touching him, loving him and repeating all of this day after day. I want a life with my ZhanZhan and Xinxin. And I will do everything I can to make these plans come true.

And I look forward to my life with them. I'm glad that Zhan and I got a second chance and I'm making the best of it. I will never lose my Zhan again.

If I hadn't been able to talk to him yesterday and explain everything to him, I would have been flying to California and sat outside his door until he finally listened to me. There is no way I will lose him again, not him and not Xinxin.

Earlier, I received a message from Zhan. His boss is giving him another vacation, he will land here with our daughter, yes, ours, tonight at the latest. He's coming straight here with Xinxin from the airport.

Which means I have some preparation to do. Because I want them to feel comfortable here. I will show Zhan that I too have learned to cook and that I can be a good houseman as well.

And then I have to confess something to my ZhanZhan. Because what he doesn't know is that I am not an ordinary employee in a company. No, Seungyoun, Wooseok and I built our own business.

I founded our company and worked in marketing. Our company was recently bought by another company in California and the money we earned is enough to never have to work again.

But I will be working in the California company, I have already clarified that in the last few days. And that company is none other than where Zhan works. So our plan to work in the same company is also coming true.

And then there is a plan that I want to implement in California. The plan to propose to my ZhanZhan. I want to take advantage of the freedom of America and marry my ZhanZhan. Officially. And I hope he will say yes.

Maybe we'll also use the money and make a long trip with Xinxin before she has to go to school. And then when we get back, maybe we'll start our own business, after all I know how to do that now. Zhan and I would work in an office together.

Cause honestly. When I come to California, I will never leave Zhan's side again. We lost seven years, we can never get them back. And I don't intend to be without him for even one hour. Or even a minute!
