Yang's POV
I already regret my actions so far …. watching my best friend lying on a hospital bed is something I'd never want to see again... I probably won't see her again. A voice snapped the line of my thoughts. "Doctor Yang, the patient is awake" the voice said. I nodded and looked at Zai. "Zai this is it …. Our final goodbye." Zai stood up and looked at me. I squeezed her hand. "We can't tell her.... right?" " No, we can't" I sighed, and I walked into the room with Zai directly behind, bracing myself for all possible outcomes.
Brianna's POV
I watched the door keenly, expecting Yang to show up any minute from now. I feel way better and stronger I also I had questions for Yang, and he better provide answers to them. The door slowly opened, revealing Yang and Zai standing there. they couldn't look me in the eye. something else was wrong. What else could go wrong in my life right now? "Bri …. how are you feeling?" I looked at Yang and scoffed "Yang you don't know how to pretend at all, at least not to me. you suck at it"
I faced Zai. "What is he hiding from me?" she looked at Yang and shook her head. I turned my gaze to Yang "what else has he set to destroy my life?" Yang sighed " I can't tell you Bri. I'm sorry." I paused for a while. Zai left the room leaving myself and Yang alone " This is bullshit Yang. How can you decide to do this to me?" realization dawned on me "what did the asshole threaten you with? Your life? " I answered my own question "no he'd blow his own cover" I thought deeply, and the answer came to me. I confirmed my suspicions " He threatened your career, isn't it?" Yang looked away and he glanced outside the window " I'm not going home am I Yang?" Yang sighed "Bri... hiding this from you is already proving to be pointless..." His phone began to ring. Deep down I already knew who it was. I watched him bring out his phone from his pocket and noted his reaction to the caller ID " It's your dad Bri" he looked grave " Bring it over" I requested. He looked at me, unsure of what exactly to do. "For God's sake hand me the damn phone yang" I was starting to get annoyed. He walked over to me, and he handed me the phone. I took it from him and answered the phone " Yang is she awake already?" "Father, leave Yang out of your shit. I will marry the Acardi boy if that makes you feel better" Yang looked at me with tears in the brim of his eyes. "How can I be sure that you're not just saying these words?" he asked " Tell Acardi to pick me up himself. if after that you still have doubts. I won't blame you."
I hung up and handed Yang his phone" Brianna … please forgive me." I glanced outside the window. My breath hitched and my voice turned hoarse" Don't make this difficult for me Yang. I don't want to break down anytime soon. I'd do anything for you Yang. don't ever forget that. You may take your leave Yang." Yang sighed and he held out his arms for me. I flew into his embrace, tears threatening to fall out from my eyes. " Yang promise me that you would take care of yourself and... I will find my way to contact you from time to time. I will send you little gifts too." He inhaled my scent as if he wasn't going to be around me for a long while, which he wasn't of course but still... A knock on the door startled both of us but we were still hugging.
