Chapter 21 (Home)


Departing from LA in the USA has been my dream for the past two and half years. Not that I do not enjoy America, not that I have any biased against the country but because the one that I love is not in America but in China.

I am thankful that my father brought me a first class ticket because I really like to have privacy in my flight. I am so relief to leave America but my heart is tight when I think of the uncertainly in China. I don't know if my heart can take another heartbreak if Yebo has someone special in his life now. It has been two and half years. Yebo now is almost nineteen. The year when I met him and starts my practice, I was nineteen, many of my University classmates are already in pairs. The thought of it makes me sweat and actually wanted to turn back and escape reality. Maybe, it is better to live in hope than to go back and face the death sentence of Yebo having a girlfriend or a boyfriend. This thought has sent me into torment. I became worry and restless.

Then, I thought of maybe looking at the news in China which I have blocked myself since I landed in America. I took out my ipad and start searching for Yebo's name. I found many similar name to Wang Yebo, but not the person that I am looking for. Then, I remembered that Yebo is skilled in motorbike racing, so he may be taking part in some competitions. So, I looked for Wang Yebo, motorbike racer and his handsome face appears on my ipad screen. Already, I can't take my eyes off him. I run my fingers on the screen of my ipad, letting my finer contouring the outline of his face. He has grown mature. His brown eye orbs were beautiful, his sharp nose are more distinct, he has lost a bit of his chubby face but his plump lips is so sumptuous. He has keep his hair longer now, leaving a few strand in front. I close my eyes and keep his image in my mind and my heart and I could feels my heart throbbing just by looking at his picture. I didn't realised that even his picture could have such great effect on me that there was never anyone that can make me feel this way.

There were many pictures of him winning lots of races but as a trained psychologist. I looked at his expression and I noticed that he has appeared very cold and icy. I also noticed there was a news about him with a daughter of the boss of the motorbike company, rumouring that they were dating. I could feels like heart enter into the gate of death. However, when I look at Yebo's expression, he doesn't look like someone in a relationship. There was no bliss on his face. I lived in a famous family in China and I know how the media can torture popular people. However, this does not mean that it did not ignite fear in me. I am still hoping that Yebo is at least single. There are too many complication for me. Does Yebo likes me, I am a man. I began to tears away...., it is too hard when it is a one-sided love affairs. However, I must still have the hope...., I guess my psychology training still helps. I hold on to the hope of my life to sustain my body from the aching pain in my heart.

Finally, the plane landed. I am as excited as ever. I did not see my parents but I saw my two University buddies and my family butler. I am certainly disappointed. I am after all haven't seen my parents for at least two years and they sent a butler to pick me up. Of course, they will tell me over the dinner, how important was the meeting that they could not miss it.

My buddies cheer me up

"Gosh, Zan, what happened, you lost so much weight. You should bring us there. We will take care of you" Wen Han told me.

All I can do is to smile at them. I am so glad to feel the warm of friendship and I do missed them. We have been good friends for several years, they are always protecting and supporting me.

I thank my buddies for coming to pick me up and assured them that I will definitely catch up with them. All I want to do is to go home. I am on a 20 hours flight. I need freshen up and see my grandma and most important, I like to drive to the Wang mansion and visit Yebo.

When I arrived home, my grandma was too excited and she waited at the door for me. She with her aging legs run toward me and hug me so tightly. I could feel her tears wetting my shirt

"Zan, my boy... I missed you,.... No....what happened, why only half my Zan Zan came home." Grandma was seriously worry about my weight lost.

"I am ok, I am home, grandma" I assured her.

"Never will I ever allows you to go overseas anymore. Look at you, you are causing me heart pain. I already prepare the Lotus port rib soup, your favourite for dinner tonight, ok" I nod my head and smile and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

I went up to my door and took a quick shower. After the shower, I don't even feels tire, as I feel my adrenaline surging up when I think of going to see Yebo.

I ran into my car and drove off to the Wang Mansion. I was really excited when I reached the gate. To my surprise, it was gated. I have been here so many times in the past, they never closed the gate unless it is late at night. I pressed the gate alarm and an old man came out.

"I am friend of Wang Yebo, can I see him" I politely asks

"Young master has moved to live in the city, the house now is empty and only some servants living here to take care of it" the man told me.

"Where has he moved to, your young master?" I ask him.

The man looks suspiciously at me and told me that he doesn't know.

I was absolutely disappointed and lost how to find Wang Yebo. I have to turn my car back home with a heavy heart. I saw my parents waiting for me to give me a hug. The wanted me to shower and have dinner with me.

During the dinner, my dad makes an announcement, and as usual without asking me

"Zan, now that you are back and fully qualified. You will be the vice president of the Xiao Enterprise from tomorrow onwards" my dad told me.

I was shocked and my dad really moves fast. I haven't even had a day of rest. However, I accept the role after the next sentence came

"You will represent the Xiao Enterprise to attend the motorbike racing competition tomorrow, we are one of the major sponsor there. It is one of the largest event of the year in Beijing. You will also attend the evening gala"

After listening to my dad, all my mind can think of is

"I WILL MEET YEBO THERE TOMORROW"
