《Zhanyi Xianwang Oneshots》Never Late 3
Advertisement
Cheng and Haikuan were getting ready. Haikuan was over the moon. He was going to meet Yibo for dinner at his house. He couldn't believe it at first. His brother who had distanced himself for so long was now finally giving him a chance to become part of his life again.
Seeing Haikuan in such a good mood made Cheng happy too. Their love and worry for their brothers was what had brought them close in the first place. He knew how much Haikuan missed seeing his brother. Haikuan tried to satisfy himself with the little phone calls and small text messages he recieved but Cheng knew that he was longing for more. To be a part of his brother's life. To see him, to hug him, to play with his nephew. To spoil his nephew. And now finally he was getting a chance.
Yibo was busy in the kitchen preparing for the night's dinner, when the front door opened.
"I am back." Came Xiao Zhan's voice. He ruffled Ayuan's hair, who was busy watching t.v., earning some giggles from him.
Xiao Zhan moved towards the kitchen. He placed the bottle of beers he bought on the table.
" Did you get it? " Asked Yibo without turning back.
" Yeah. Are you done? Is there anything left to do? "
" No. I am done. Can you keep the beer in the fridge. There is still some time left before they come. "
" Okay. I'll be in the hall with Ayuan. Just call me if you need any help. "
" Hm. "
Xiao Zhan walked back to the living room to join Ayuan in watching Power Rangers.
After a minutes, Yibo was done in the kitchen and went to freshen up. He passed by the living room and saw Ayuan excitedly telling Xiao Zhan about his favourite power ranger. And Xiao Zhan listening with equal excitement. He couldn't help but grin. He slipped to the bathroom without either of them noticing.

At the beginning of the day he was nervous. Yesterday he had called his brother and invited him to his home. He was ecstatic to meet his brother at the same time he was scared. He was scared to tell his brother about Zhan. Six years ago when he first told his parents about his relationship they threw him out of the house. They emotionally blackmailed his brother into not contacting him. A year after when he got pregnant his then boyfriend also left him, scared of the responsibility. Ever since then he had been alone. And he had contented himself with that. He had accepted that he only had his son as his family. Then Zhan came. And for the first time in a while he started hoping. He started being greedy. Greedy for Zhan.
He was still pondering on how to convey his feelings to Zhan, when Zhan proposed him. He was elevated. But what took him over cloud nine was the fact that Zhan had included Ayuan in the proposal. He just wishes that his brother supports his relationship today. Either way he is not going to leave Zhan. He lived without his family until now he could do it in the future. But he would be much more happy if his brother was with him.
He was done showering and came out after putting on some clothes. When he came out he saw Ayuan on the bed with some flowers in his hand and a grin on his face. He was confused.
"Where did you get those flowers from?" Asked Yibo. But he didn't answer and kept looking at him. That's when Yibo felt something being placed on his head. He took that and realised that it was crown of flowers. He turned back and saw Zhan standing there with a smile.
"Where did you get this from?" Asked Yibo.
" The shop downstairs. "

" It's beautiful. "
" I think it's okay."
Zhan took the crown from his hands and placed it on his head.
And then said, " Hm, now it looks beautiful, but not as much as you. "
Yibo chuckled.
Zhan's smile grew wider. " Thank you. " Said Yibo.
" That's not how you thank me. "
" Then how do I thank you?"
" You know I accept thanks from you in kisses. "
Yibo chuckled but complied nevertheless. He kissed him on the cheek. And said, " Now shoo. I need to change. "
" I have no problem. You can change. "
Yibo made an irritated face and pushed Zhan out of the room, who had picked up Ayuan on the way.
Once outside the room, Zhan heard his phone ringing. He checked the phone and saw that his brother was calling. He didn't pick up the call. After the call got disconnected, he saw that there was one more missed call from his brother a few minutes back. He knew his brother was calling about the missed appointment. He was not in the right mindset to make up an excuse or to hear his lectures. He is already nervous to meet Yibo's brother. He does not want to spoil his mood now.
Haikuan and Cheng were in their car travelling towards Yibo's house. When Cheng cursed out loud. Haikuan was a bit startled.
" He is not picking up my calls. He knows why I am calling. " Said Cheng absolutely not hiding his irritation.
" Relax honey. He is big enough. If he missed an appointment there might be a reason. Please don't work up yourself. " Haikuan soothed him.
Haikuan was rather happy at Zhan missing his appointment. Zhan irritated him to no end.
Though Cheng was mad, he decided to forget the matter for now. Haikuan was over the moon as he was meeting his brother. He didn't wanted to spoil his mood. So he didn't speak about it anymore.
After a few more minutes of driving, they finally entered the complex. Both of them equally confused.
"Cheng isn't this the complex where Zhan lives? " Asked Haikuan.
"Yeah.... You sure you have the right address?"
" I can't believe he was so near to me." Exclaimed Haikuan .
Haikuan parked his car and they went in. And finally they were standing in front of Yibo's house. Cheng rang the bell. The door was opened by Yibo.
Haikuan was overwhelmed at meeting. That was his little brother in front of him. He was seeing him after so long. Last time he had seen him he was thinner and had blonde hair. Now he looked much more mature with black hair. He didn't know when tears filled his eyes. He moved forward and hugged him tight. Yibo reciprocated the hug equally. Cheng didn't disturb their moment. After a few moments both of them separated with wet cheeks.
Yibo welcomed them inside. Haikuan introduced Cheng to Yibo as they entered.
Cheng looked around the apartment. While Haikuan was observing his brother. His childish brother had grown to a responsible adult. He felt guilty. He couldn't protect him. He was brought out of his reverie by Cheng's shout.
" What are you doing here ? " Shouted Cheng
Haikuan followed his eyes and was surprised as well at seeing Zhan there. He was holding Ayuan.
Zhan was frozen at seeing Yibo's brother. He never in his million thoughts, considered Yibo's brother being his psychiatrist. He knew the name was familiar.
It was Yibo who broke the silence.
" Um brother, he is my boyfriend. Xiao Zhan. "
Cheng and Haikuan exclaimed together, " WHAT!!"
Both of them looked towards Zhan with murder in their eyes.
Zhan gave them a nervous smile.

A Will to Recognize
What do you think it takes to live? Is it strength? Power? Magic? Unparalleled intelligence? Or are they all mere accessories to the fact that life is irrelevant? Do you have what it takes to bear the burden of life? Does life even matter? I don't know, and to be frank, I am somehow alive; I was even able to function in society at one point. It frightens me to think no one else knows our purpose: not our parents, friends, or mentors. And I can't bring myself to surrender to any religion. But I do have a direction. A goal, one might say. My wish is to one day shout on top of the highest mountains, "Life doesn't frighten me!" But that won't happen. Because I died a long time ago. ... You're still here? That? Oh it was all in the script. You didn't think I'd actually say that cringey stuff, did you? ~Daniel

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).
