Ash and Sing were looking at Yut-Lung.
"I understand, Yue. I've had those dreams as well." Ash said sympathetically.
Sing goes to hug Yut-Lung and Ash (struggling) gets out of his bed and goes to hug Yut as well.
Yut-Lung cries.
"I'm sorry if I grossed you guys out. Did I really moan loud in my dream?" Yut-Lung asked.
"We heard the moans and 'I love you' over and over again." Ash said.
Yut-Lung still cried.
"I guess it's a longing we have. To one day find someone that we love and instead of being forced to have sex, that person makes love to us." Ash said.
"Yue, is there someone you are in love with?" Sing asked.
Yut-Lung looked at Ash and then looked back down until...
The nurse walked in.
"Mr. Lee and Mr. Callenreese, I have your discharge paperwork here for you. You guys can go home tomorrow morning."
"Thank you." The guys said.
Sing jumped for joy
"We should have a party!" Sing said.
"Ash might need to rest more." Yut-Lung said.
"True. " Sing agreed.
"Aren't we supposed to meet with that hot British guy tomorrow?" Yut-Lung asked.
"I wonder what this is going to be about..." Ash said.
"I met with him today. He is going to help us transition to a new life away from gangs and stuff. He got me into a better school. He might put you guys through college." Sing said.
"Oh..." Ash said.
"We'll see what happens." Yut-Lung said.
He fell asleep again.
*The next day*
And the day that both Yut-Lung and Ash would get released from the hospital finally came.
Charlie brought the hot social worker to talk to Ash and Yut-Lung.
"So next week, you guys are going to take college entry exams and I will help you apply for colleges. Think about your majors. But, no more gangs and mafias and that kind of crap." Simon said.
Ash and Yut-Lung nodded.
"Sounds great! And it looks like the nurse is here with the discharge paperwork!" Simon said. He handed Ash and Yut-Lung a card.
"Call me if you need anything. Have a great day guys! Study hard!" He said as he left.
"Bye " Ash and Yut said.
The nurse handed Ash and Yut-Lung some paperwork and let them go. She did have two hospital volunteers come with wheelchairs for both Ash and Yut.
"And don't worry, I'm dropping you guys off. Give me about 5 minutes to go get my car and I'll meet you guys downstairs." Charlie said.
Ash was a little scared. He took out his phone and decided to text Eiji.
"Good Morning Eiji, it looks like I'm gonna start a new life today. No gangs or none of that."
Eiji was probably asleep right now.
"But I promise you, I'm gonna heal and I'll get strong again, and then I'll go to Japan to see you."
Yut-Lung was staring at Ash.
"Wow... Your eyelashes are blonde and they're long too. That's pretty." Yut-Lung said.
"Thank you. And your hair is really long and thick. It must've taken you your whole life to grow it, right?" Ash said.
"Yeah. I never cut it." Yut-Lung said.
The two boys were wheeled to the main entrance and met with Charlie. Sing was already in the car waiting. Yut-Lung got off his wheelchair and sat on the rear of the driver's seat and let Ash sit on the rear passenger's side so it would be easier for him.
They drove off to the penthouse Yut-Lung bought. It was a beautiful property. It was as big as a mansion. (of course, I mean, the diva himself bought it so it needs to be great and extra!)
"Wow..." Ash said as he was shocked. Surely, he's seen many nice properties before, but not as this one. Yut-Lung had great taste.
They got out of the car and Charlie helped Ash get back on his wheelchair. Yut-Lung opened the penthouse and gave Ash, Charlie, and Sing a tour.
"This is where we're gonna live, guys! I've also hired an interior decorator to sit down with you guys so he can decorate your rooms as you like them. And he's hot too." Yut said and winked when he mentioned that the interior decorator was hot.
"And then this is Hua-Lung's room, and-" Yut-Lung said.
Charlie cleared his throat. Sing looked at Charlie as if he felt like Charlie was going to break the news to Yut-Lung.
"Not yet. Please." Sing mouthed out to Charlie.
"Oh dear me, I'm gonna go take a shower." Yut-Lung said. He ran to his room and picked out an outfit and ran to the shower.
"So, how do you think we should tell him, then?" Charlie asked Sing.
"That's a good question. I know that we'll have to tell him at some point. But... it might be hard. He hated Hua-Lung too, but he had an... attachment... with him." Sing said.
"Attachment, you say?" Charlie asked.
"Yeah. It's complicated. You see... Yue was often prostituted by his brothers and sometimes, he would have to service Hua Lung." Sing said.
"Disgusting." Charlie said.
Ash flinched.
"Later on, Yue became more and more lonely, and at times, when he had to service Hua Lung, he would imagine that it was someone else. So there were times where Hua Lung wanted to have sex with Yue and Yue wouldn't object." Sing explained.
"That's terrible, disgusting, and sad." Ash said as he understood Yut-Lung more.
Yut-Lung came out of the shower wearing a cute crop top and some jeans.
"How do I look, guys?" Yut Lung said and turned around.
"You look nice." Ash said sympathetically.
"I'm sorry, Sing, but I'm gonna have to." Charlie whispered in Sing's ear.
"Ash and I will be on standby, then." Sing said.
"Mr. Lee-" Charlie said until he was interrupted.
"It's ok. You can call me Yue or Yeet." Yut-Lung said.
"Ok. Yue, there is a matter that I need to speak to you about. Would you like to go to a room or?" Charlie said.
"We can go talk in the living room. I'll have one of my servants bring us some tea." Yut-Lung said.
"Ok. That works." Charlie said.
They walked to the living room and drank some tea that was prepared.
"Now Yue, what I'm about to tell you may be difficult to deal with, but this is something that you need to know." Charlie said.
"Ok." Yut-Lung said.
"Fuck. I hope he doesn't find out that I had something to do with Wang-Lung's murder." Yut-Lung thought.
"I know that you recently lost your brother Wang-Lung. How have you been coping with the loss?" Charlie said.
"Well, I've been distracting myself, keeping busy. But sometimes it is kind of hard." Yut-Lung said and sniffled.
"...aaaaaad the Oscar goes to me!" Yut-Lung thought.
"Well Yue, I really hate to say this, but I have more bad news for you." Charlie said.
"Fuck." Yut-Lung said and grew nervous.
"Oh my god. What could it be?" Yut-Lung said.
"Unfortunately, your brother Hua-Lung passed away a few days ago." Charlie said.
"What?" Yut-Lung said.
"It seemed like a heart attack. But we've learned that the Vietnamese mafia have used Banana Fish too and may have mixed it with another drug. And our fear is that they may be after you too." Charlie said.
Yut-Lung cried.
Sing and Ash immediately came to comfort Yut-Lung
