Now that a few days have passed, I must honestly say that I am quite shocked at how much my life has changed so radically in such a short time. But I'm more shocked that I've accepted all of this. Just accepted it, moved on and readjusted. And all this as if it was the most normal thing in the world.

When I looked back at what I wrote, I just thought, wow, my life has really been turned upside down and nothing is the way it used to be and yet I didn't seem to mind. I mean, one minute I have a normal life, I'm a married man, I'm doing my job normally, for me my job is normal and I don't care about anything else.

And then the next moment I kick my wife out because I found out that she cheated on me and only two days later I suddenly have sex with a man who is actually a complete stranger, after I made the first move when I spontaneously and attackingly kissed him, who then became my boyfriend, for whom I suddenly have increasingly strong feelings, with whom it then also turns out that he works at the same government agency as I do, only that he works as an undercover agent and I work as a special agent as an interrogation specialist.

In addition, not only our parents already know about us, it passed not even 24 hours until they learned it from us, but also our boss at the government agency. Oh, and then there is the fact that my parents wanted to set me up with Yibo anyway, about whom I now know that he is super sweet during the day and also in the evening, caring and very concerned about my well-being and at night mutates into an animal in bed.

And, I should then also from the coming week undercover and together with Yibo in the police station against this one police officer investigate. But as it turned out, that police officer was not sick at all, but was following his sick passion. His bad luck was that his wife caught him torturing a young woman, killed her, and then took advantage of her dead body. And how did the wife find out? Well, it seemed strange to her that her husband was spending so much time in the basement of the house. She installed a tiny surveillance camera and found out that there was a secret room in the basement.

She then equipped the secret room with a tiny camera as well and when she looked at the footage after a long night her husband spent in his secret screened room, she screamed in shock and called the police. She showed the footage to police officers, who then arrested her husband.

Since that was the end of Yibo's undercover work and mine as well, he was told to stay on call, as I was too. Because still we are not allowed to work in the "company" as it is officially called, because the city is still in lockdown, because of this pandemic, caused by a new flu, which is spreading rapidly.

So much for the events and facts so far. And now I wondered why I actually had so little problem with all the changes in my life? Are you asking yourself the same question? My answer is, I guess I just fell head over heels in love with Yibo, and I guess I already did that evening when he and I slipped and collided on the mirror-slick parking lot of the supermarket.

I can't explain it any other way. I know that I liked him at first sight and probably that was the moment when I fell in love with him. Probably that was already the beginning of my new life.

Only every now and then I seem to stand beside myself, look at myself and ask myself: "What the hell is happening right now? How did this happen so fast?" But those questions are popping up less and less in my head. Instead, I'm now asking myself more, "Why didn't I meet Yibo sooner? Why didn't I allow myself to just be myself sooner?" Because honestly? I'm really happy for the first time right now!

I'm happily in love. I have a boyfriend with whom I can talk about anything. Even about my job! There are no secrets between us and I enjoy that very much. Finally, I don't have to watch every word and I can be who I am. At the end of the day, I'm thankful that my life has been turned upside down. Because it allowed me to meet Yibo and finally experience what it's like to be in love.
