Ever Fine
"Mei Lin called me and speech me the reprimanded," he laughed.
"Why would she do that?" I asked.
"She said she's been trying to get a hold of you for a couple of days and when she didn't have any luck, she called me. When I told her about your chemo and that you were staying here, she started yelling and said to sit tight because she was coming straight over from the airport to kick my ass."
I rolled my eyes.
"Oh god, not tonight."
Mu Kai lightly laughed.
"No, tomorrow, her flight was delayed.
I let out a sigh of relief.
"Good, because tonight I couldn't deal with her."
I must have drifted to sleep because when I woke up I was under the covers and Mu Kai was gone. I felt so alone and did the only thing I couldn't control, I cried.
As my shoulders were shaking and the sobs were buried deep in my pillow, I felt an overwhelming sense of comfort from behind.
"It's okay baby, I'm here." Mu Kai wrapped his arms around me and held me the rest of the night.
