His Race (YiZhan Fanfiction)

Chapter 14: Second Race

It's the day, after two weeks of not getting enough sleep of not seeing Yibo I can finally see him.

I woke up early as expected to be, I sat up and look at the clock beside my bed.

It's only three am?!

I sighed. It can't be helped, might as well cook Yibo's favorite to replenish his energy after his race.

I stood up from my bed and went on the kitchen, I tied the apron on my waist and grabbed the ladle.

.

after thirty minutes or so, I'm finished cooking.

"You're early, A'zhan" Mom suddenly pops out in the kitchen, scratching her eyes. Looks like I've woken her.

"Sorry, mom. Did I wake you?" I asked and remove the apron from my waist.

"Not really" She answered and went to peek on what I cooked. "You cooked so much," she said and stepped in front of the sink.

"It's Yibo's race today. I cooked his favorite." I giggled and clean the mess I made.

"Oh right, his mom told me that she will not be able to attend Yibo's race because of her business. Tell him that for her," She said and washed her face on the sink.

"Hm, okay" I answered and put the food on the containers.

"You really take care of him like a mother." Mom uttered after washing her face.

I just chuckled and put the containers on a bag. "Well, I'll be preparing now mom since I'll attend my first class in the morning and proceed to the tracks after." I kissed her cheeks and went to my bedroom to have my morning routine.

.

After finishing my routine, I went to the kitchen and ate my breakfast then bid goodbye to mom after I finished.

I attended my first class in the morning, to my excitement I dismissed my class early.

"Mr. Xiao, you look so happy today? Have a date?" Ms. Lee said as she giggles.

"N-no" I stuttered, my cheeks suddenly felt hot.

"Oh really? Then have fun." She giggled again as if she knows that I'm lying.

"Have fun Mr. Xiao!" the rest of the professors teased and laughed.

I shook my head, they've been making fun of me since two weeks ago.

I held my bag and the bag of containers tightly in my hands.

"I'll be going now then. I already passed my absence letter for today." I smiled at them and waved goodbye.

But before I can get out of the faculty I turned to look at Ms. Lee," Ms. Lee, thank you for taking over my classes today. I owe you this one." I smiled at her, she nodded and smiled back at me.

.

I'm already at the bleachers, the race about to start. Gladly I came on time.

I looked at the lined racers and spotted Yibo. He's so cool when he is wearing his racer suit.

His eyes are fixed on the track.

I didn't wish him well yet, I shrugged it doesn't matter if he hears me or not.

I heave a deep breath and prepared to scream. "GOOD LUCK DIDI!" I shouted. Everyone averted their gaze at me, now I feel ashamed of what I did.

I bit my lip in embarrassment, but then the girls who weirdly looked at me suddenly screamed. I looked at what they are screaming at. It was Yibo, he's looking at our direction, or maybe my direction? I don't know if my eyes tricking me but I saw him wink at me. My cheeks suddenly felt hot. I rolled my eyes at him and I saw him chuckle even if his helmet is on.
