"Hello? Are you coming home tonight?" Xiao Zhan asks his husband in a low dejected voice on a phone call."No, I have work to do" Wang Yibo said coldly, 'baby come here' a background sound was heard from Wang Yibo's side before disconnecting the call.
Xiao Zhan let out a heavy sigh, he felt a pang inside his heart, and tears started making their way out of the tear ducts. It's been 7years to their marriage life and 3 months, 12 days since Wang Yibo last visited their house.
Xiao Zhan used to call his husband every evening hoping that he will get good news from his husband, saying he will pay a visit. But to his dismay, every time Wang Yibo used to say the same words with the same cold tone before hanging up. Never had he once asked Zhan, how was he? How he is doing? Nothing! He never said a simple hello on the call beside his typical 'humming'.
Xiao Zhan glanced at his wrist watch before calling someone,
"Hello? It's Xiao Zhan here. I would like to cancel my today's appointment." he said"Sir, are you sure? You have been cancelling your appointments from the past two months." Said the female from the other line.
"Yes, I really can't make it today." Said Xiao Zhan.
"Okay Sir. But you are risking your own life here." The female said before disconnecting the call.
Xiao Zhan was an orphan; he completed his education based on scholarships. He was 20 years old when he fell for Wang Yibo. Besides Wang Yibo, he never had any close friends, he was his only one. The only one he ever needed, through happiness and sadness.
But right now everything was tossed around, the person he wanted the most wasn't by his side. The person he loved with all his heart, right now was pleasing someone else whom he loves. Were those all promises a mere joke?
The promise of staying together..
The promise of sharing happiness as well as sadness..
The promise of holding hands together..
The promise of walking side by side..
The promise of helping each other throughout their life and if possible even after that..
And most importantly..
The promise of loving each other forever for eternityAll vows seems to vanished into thin air.
Had Wang Yibo ever really cared about his husband, Xiao Zhan?
Xiao Zhan left his office late in the evening as he had piles of work to finish today because he had asked for two weeks of holidays.
He came back to their shared house, unlocked the main door before entering inside the house which was as good as in mourning condition. The silence inside the house which creases to exist when they were together, was now burning him alive. He can no longer stay alone in this hell. What did he ever asked for? A company? Someone who loves him? That's it! It was enough for him to live his life with his loved one.
