Kevin was, of course, shedding crocodile tears. He just wanted to gather the sympathy of all of them. So, they could trust him and see him as a love-depraved man. However, the story of Roger and Steven was not false. But it had nothing to do with him. Roger was an ordinary man whose name he did not even know before that particular incident. When he was packing his stuff for this trip, he opened his cupboard. Once again, he found a wooden box inside it. The box was made of sandalwood. This special box contained all of his necessary items for sodomy.

Things and brands he preferred.

Because of the main motive of his trip, he needed to take this box with him. As he was checking the items inside the box, he found a photo album. The album contained pictures of all of his victims, consensual and non-consensual ones included. These pictures were the souvenirs of his disgusting acts. At this moment, he did not want to skim through these pictures. When he was going to shut it and put it back, the album fell to the ground, and it opened at a random page. Two photos could be seen in the album. The first photo was of a young youth who was showing a sunny smile to the camera, and the second photo contained the same man lying unconscious on the hospital bed. His eyes were shut, and his face was completely pale, almost white. It seemed like the sunny young man was entirely a different man. He closed the book. Suddenly, his movements stopped. He picked up the album again and tried to find the same boy again. Although, because of his haste, it was taking more time, at the end, he found the boy again. He looked closely at the boy's photo, and he was completely shocked by the results. This boy's appearance matched that of Aman by 60–70%! He felt like someone in heaven must be agreeing with his plan. That's why he stumbled upon Aman's doppelganger. His hands trembled as he slowly touched the face of the boy and caressed it. Then he read the information about the boy that he had collected to never forget his taste. Steven Brown was the boy's name. He was only 20 at the time. He had met him at a bar in Boston. He worked as a bartender there. At that time, Steven's sunny persona and charming smile caught his attention and, not to forget, his desire. Somehow, he felt the urge to rip that smile from the boy's face. But who could have guessed that this boy was already committed to his boyfriend and bar owner, Roger Davis.

Though he did not believe that their relationship could be that strong since both of them were only dating for six months, he tried to lure Steven with his money and looks. But the damned idiot was not having that! So, he chose an easier path for him—using force. Kevin always felt that using this way was easier, but he never thought that this path would ruin many people's lives. Anyhow, he calculated the timing and found the perfect opportunity. After that, he did the unforgivable with Steven. By the time he was done, Steven already looked like he was counting his last breaths. So he did not feel it was necessary to finish the person, but rather he erased all other proof. However, who could have expected that Steven could be saved and sent to the hospital on time? Therefore, he did not die but fell into a vegetative state, which he was thankful for, so he could not tell his name to the police. Also, the thing about Roger loving Steven more than life itself was not false either. After all, four years have passed since the incident, but he heard that Roger still visited Steven daily in the hospital diligently, no matter if it was raining or snowing. But, according to him, Roger should not waste his time on a useless person who has no chance of waking up. Of course, Kevin Evans was completely unaware of the fact that Steven would wake up a day after his own demise. He quickly carved an emotional story that suited his character as he started taking photos of the pictures through his phone. He edited them a little so it could look like they were taken from this phone in the first place. After that, making a false chat where his son, Roger, blamed him and broke off every relationship with him was a piece of cake for him.

As of now, here he was, shedding fake tears. So the three people around him could trust him. Looking at their worried and sympathetic faces, he felt that his plan was working perfectly. He sniffled slowly. There was complete silence around them. It felt like the people around him did not want to interrupt his sad moments. Victor slowly started taking deep breaths in order to compose himself. After that, he rumbled a deep chuckle and laughed a little. "I am sorry I emptied all of my sadness on you. Your children are very good. Bless you, bless you." Justin tried to reassure him, "Oh no, uncle, don't worry. It's completely alright. Right, Mei Wei and Aman?" Aman quickly responded, "Yes, uncle. Please don't be sad and take care of yourself." Mei Wei is only inclined to say, "Yes, I agree with Aman." Seeing their reaction, Victor laughed again. "See, all of you are so considerate. Okay, as I ruined your play time and emptied my sadness upon you, let me treat all three of you to a meal." Seeing their reluctant faces, he said, "Please, agree. I insist." At his insistence, the three of them could not help but agree. As it was close to lunch, they headed towards the Y Resort's restaurant. On the way to the restaurant, Mei Wei called the resort staff and told them not to follow them. The restaurant was as magnificent as the Y Resort. It was situated on the 10th floor of the building. Once they reached there, they chose a table beside a large glass window. The town was covered in a layer of white snow. The scenery was very pleasant to the eyes. While they were talking, Victor suddenly mentioned, "Hey! Boys, do you know that there is a carnival in town today?" Aman looked excited as he asked, "Oh, really?" Again! He showed that damned smile. Kevin wanted to rip off this bloody smile that always made his heart itch. Soon! He was going to do this exactly. He smirked in his heart. "Yes, apparently today is an auspicious day for the town's people. There is a festival called Sweet Tooth, where they distribute sweets to each other and celebrate. You know, they arrange a carnival for the tourists, so they could also know their culture," explained Victor. He explained it in such a way that the people around him got excited for it. Mei Wei grinned as he looked at Aman and asked, "That sounds great, Aman. Do you want to go and have a look?" Before Aman could answer, Justin said loudly, "Yes, Mei Wei, we should definitely go. It will be so much fun. I will go with you." Mei Wei looked at him with disdain and said, "I was not asking you." He again looked at Aman. Aman smiled softly and nodded. "Yes, we can go." Although his voice was much softer, Mei Wei always knew that he was a little afraid of strangers. He did not say anything to the resort staff since he came here; besides, please and thank you. Mei Wei was overjoyed. "Yes, that's settled then. We will go there in the evening." On the other hand, Justin pouted, "But I also want to go." Mei Wei looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Then go there by yourself." Now Justin was lost for words. Victor laughed loudly and patted Justin's shoulder. "Oh! Don't worry. You can go with me. Let the sweet couple enjoy some private time." He winked at Aman after saying that. It felt like Aman wanted to retort and say something, but was obviously too shy about it. Though Mei Wei spoke hurriedly, "Hey! Aman, are you done? Let's go and have a look at the game centre." Kevin sneered in his heart as he realised that Mei Wei wanted everyone to think that he and Aman were a real couple. "Then we are going. Thank you for the treat," Aman said softly as he bowed a little. Mei Wei also bowed and said, "Thank you." Victor waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it." Both of them left, but while leaving, they still heard the voice of Justin, whose mouth was already stuffed with food: "Uncle, aren't you going to order dessert as well?" Kevin could not help but be friendly.

After that, both Aman and Mei Wei spent some time at the game centre, where Mei Wei taught Aman different games. In the evening, both of them got further information about the carnival from the resort manager and left for their destination. The carnival was full of lights, cheerful crowds, and different rides. The local sweets and food were delicious. They stopped at one stall. It was a kind of stall where you aimed a ring at a certain item. If the ring gets around the item, you win it. As they looked at the items, Mei Wei saw a small Panda stuff toy. The panda toy looked like it was always smiling. He boasted as he paid for the rings, "Aman, I am telling you I am an expert in this game. Let me win that stuffed panda for you." Aman did not say anything as Mei Wei threw the first ring. Sadly, it missed. Mei Wei's expressions froze, but he still tried to throw the second and third rings; however, they too missed. On the other hand, Aman was having difficulty suppressing his laughter. Mei Wei paid for the second batch of rings and tried again, but still failed badly. The stall owner laughed heartily as he encouraged Mei Wei. Mei Wei took a deep breath and paid for the third batch. Unfortunately, his first two rings again missed the target. He handed the third ring back to the stall owner as he said sadly, "I am sorry. I can't do it." He was going back when Aman grabbed his arm and told the owner, "Give that ring to me." The man did so. Aman cupped Mei Wei's cheek with his left hand and said, "Never lose hope when your Aman is with you, okay?" While he was saying this, he was looking straight at Mei Wei, but with his right hand, he threw the ring towards the panda. The ring rightfully got around the panda as the stall owner handed him their prize dumbfoundedly. Both he and Mei Wei were shocked by what happened a few seconds ago. Once again, Mei Wei had the feeling that Aman was not what he made people think of himself. He looked at Aman with a strange look. Seeing him like this, Aman blushed, forgetting his previous boldness: "The children in our village played a game similar to this." After getting the explanation, Mei Wei's heart settled down. Aman grinned as he handed the panda toy to Mei Wei. "Take this and always have a smile like it does. It's my gift for you." "Thank you." Mei Wei smiled as he hugged Aman tightly. He was overwhelmed with happiness. When both of them separated, Aman looked at his watch and said, "It's getting pretty late. We should go back." Mei Wei nodded, his cheeks still red. "Okay." They went back, hand in hand. "My prince, tomorrow I want to learn how to ski."

"Yes, we will do it. Anything you say, my highness." However, both of them did not know that this was the last night of their harmonious moments. Mei Wei did not know that the Aman whose laugh felt honey to his ears would hear the earth shaking scream of his Aman tomorrow...
