ROOMMATE [YiZhan]

8. ZHAN-ZHAN

[XIAO ZHAN P.O.V]

I've awakened in a dark place that I don't know where. Adjusting my sight, It's like a small space and I can't move. I am inside of a small box that fits in only one body, it is a coffin? there's no light or air to breathe. Panic and fear rush on me, as I tried to call for someone's help.  'Please help me!' I keep shouting but nobody hears me. I use all my force to open this box but it's no use, I can't open it. 'Anyone ... Please help me!' minutes and hours pass but there is no one there to help me. I'm exhausted, lack of oxygen and blurry eyes. My tears keep flowing, I ask my self. Is this is my end? If I will die here, Is there's someone to collects my corpse? I close my eyes praying hard. 'I don't want to die here yet, Please ... somebody help me...' gasping the air that I keep trying to inhale in my lungs slowly my consciousness fade away.

I jolt in my deep slumber again, it's another nightmare. Beads of fat sweat in my forehead. I hissed in pain of my neck and my hand automatically check it. There is a patch in my wound. Is Cheng-ge treat my wounds? How come I got this wound anyway? Oh, I remember now the heated argument we had with Yibo. Flashback hit me. Ruining Yibo's stuff and ripping off of his family picture is my stupid mistake.  Because of his anger, he throws the mug and the scattered piece hit me. Speaking of him, Why I'm here in his bed and he is sleeping peacefully beside me? What happened after I lost consciousness, I don't remember anything. Suddenly I feel fear again because when my phobia triggers over and got blackout there is something bad will happened.

I sit up in bed and looking around panicked, feeling dizzy and headache because of sudden movement. I look around there is no sight of blood anywhere. But I still have this panic state. What if ... no ... no ... I imminently examine Yibo. I snatch his blanket over his body and checking him. He is not hurt, right? I don't hurt him, right? In shock and sleepy voice I heard him complain "Zhan-ge what are you doing!"

I keep checking him and try taking off his shirt to see if he got wound or anything, but this brat keeps struggling and his strength is no match at me. "Stop, moving. I just want to check if you got hurt!" He freezes in his spot, after making sure that he is not hurt I feel relief. Thank God, he doesn't hurt. Feeling drained and dizzy I flop at his top, my head laid in his chest. "Zhan-ge!?" His worried voice calls me.

"I'm scared... that I might hurt you..." He tried to get up but I don't even bother to move. He laid back again. "What are you talking about?" He asks me. "When my fear trigger and block out, I'm scared that I may hurt you. I'm scared that it will happen again ... to you." Hearing my explanation Yibo relaxes a bit. "Ms. Lu tells me that you have got an accident three years ago." When LuJie and Yibo talk behind me?

Remembering those tragic events in my life, Fear takes me more as I start to tremble and it's hard for me to breathe. "Zhan-ge!" I got panic again. "Calm down, I'm here, don't be scared. Breath in slowly, Relax." His big hands keep stroking my back to calm down and he hugs me tight. When did this brat start caring for me? But I fell happy like stupid. Is this the feeling when someone cares about you? It's warm and gentle.

After I feel calm, he tries to ge up again but I stop him. "Let's stay like this for a while, all my strength drain because you keep struggling earlier," I complain, I feel his warm hand in my forehead as he checking my temperature. "Fever" he murmured, he doesn't move. Hearing his heartbeat fast in his chest I feel more relax and relieved. "Zhan-ge I need to apologies of..." he starts again, but he cut off when we both hear our cellphones ringing loudly at the nightstand near his bed someone is calling. I drag my heavy body to reach the phone and he also did. I sit up in bed, without checking the caller's name  I answered.

"Hello?" there is no response, "Hello?" I repeat again. "This is my brother's phone right?" I check fast the phone I holding. Shit! This is not my phone. I look at Yibo who is currently looking also the phone he is holding damn it that's my phone. "He is not going!" Yibo answered fast on my phone. Wait who is he talking?  "Hello?" I hear again the man in other lines in Yibos phone. "Ah, I'm sorry I answered the wrong phone, Yibo is ..." I explain but he cut me off. "It's okay, It's okay, It is not that important anyway. May I know who is this?" He had a gentle voice. "I'm Xiao Zhan his roommate." Yes, I acknowledge him now as my roommate. "Oh, then can you please tell him that I called?" His brother's voice is calm and sweet. "Yes, I will tell him, I'm sorry." I apologize again. "Don't apologize to me Zhan-Zhan. Then, Bye for now." did he call me Zhan-Zhan? I'm still confused about his brother when he ended the call.

Meeting with Yibo gaze who just also finishing answering the call of my phone. We exchange the phone we holding. "Who is it?" I ask him, "Yubin, He is asking if you would go to your work today" Oh, I forgot it's weekend I have my part-time job to attend. I stand up fast out of his bed but I stop midway, I got dizzy again, Yibo catches me before I would hit my head on the floor. "You are not going!," his voice is stern, "I need to ..., ahh, fuck!" my entire body has no strength, my head hurts and my body is heavy to move. "Don't force your self!"  It's no use to argue at him like this and besides, He is right I cannot do anything at work in this condition.
