Takes place after Episode 32:
A Zhai had been so happy to find Adam and Eve, after he woke up in the hospital. But he was too late, the man from the future had erased their memories of A Zhai, from their minds. That was worse than if he'd just dreamed it all. Even after explaining to them who they were to him and why there were two luv bots with him, they still remembered nothing. Originally he had wanted Eve to be like the girl he loved in high school, Pei Nei, but now that didn't matter. After all the crazy situations she'd put him through and Adam fixing them, all he wanted was for them to remember who he was and not just their luv master. It had hurt that Adam had connected to Eve and she to him, but even that was gone. A Zhai wondered if his selfishness had wrecked everything. Even his human friends didn't believe him and thought he was ill. Except his best friend. He tried to help A Zhai restore the memories of his robots. The robots had warned him that tampering with their program, might put them to sleep permanently. But he didn't care, he wanted them to get their memories back. Nothing seemed to work. Days went by, then weeks and the robots didn't wake up, nor respond to anything. A Zhai got depressed.
Noticing that Adam and Eve were starting to collect dust, he began to wipe them down. His bond to Adam was deeper than to Eve, because Adam was the first bot he received. That's what A Zhai told himself. But as he looked at Adam's face, while the bot sat on the chair with his eyes closed, A Zhai finally realized that he had real feelings for Adam. Maybe this was like a fairytale, where if he kissed Adam, the bot would wake up. The closer A Zhai got to Adam, the more his own heart thumped harder. His eyes landed on Adam's mouth, those perfect lips. A Zhai gave him a quick peck on the lips and nothing happened.
"I'll try kissing you longer, then I'll go to Eve and try the same."
A Zhai cupped Adam's face, tilted his head to the side and their lips met. He really wanted Adam to respond back, but still the bot was immobile. As an after-thought A Zhai kissed Eve too, but his heart didn't go wild, like it had with Adam.
"Why do I feel like this? I know you're both luv bots, but... all I really want is Adam to wake up and be with me." A Zhai said out loud.
He was getting filled with despair, but every day he went down stairs to spend time with the bots. In his mind they were just in a coma, but could still feel everything around them. A Zhai stopped kissing Eve and just focused on Adam. He caressed his face, traced Adam's lips with his finger, before kissing them again. Kissing seemed easy, why had he been afraid of showing his real feelings?
Weeks went by and still the bots remained unmoving. It was crushing A Zhai's heart. With tears running down his face, he kneeled in front of Adam, bracing himself with his hands gripping the thighs. Leaning forward he brought his lips one more time to Adam's lips.
"I love you Adam, don't leave me."
Trudging back up the stairs, A Zhai gave a long sigh of defeat. His house was a mess and the pub having been closed for weeks had dust all over tables and chairs. Lying down outside, A Zhai began to sob, his heart broken into so many pieces. Eventually he cried himself to sleep.
Adam woke up and looked around. He recognized where he was and who was beside him. Eve was still asleep. Then he remembered A Zhai, where was his friend? Standing, Adam went to look for him. Coming upstairs he saw the mess and wondered how long he had been in sleep mode, for the house to get like that. Then he saw A Zhai, lying on his side.
A Zhai heard a sound behind him and stood up, turning he saw Adam. Unable to believe that his bot was back, he came closer to Adam. "Do you know who I am?"
"A Zhai," Adam said and then hugged him.
Crying in relief, A Zhai pressed his face into Adam's chest. Adam pulled back and looked down at A Zhai. Gently he wiped the tears from his face, before lowering his own face closer. Staring into each other's eyes, Adam kissed A Zhai. It was soft and gentle. A Zhai gasped in surprise and that gave Adam a chance to take the kiss deeper. His mouth covered A Zhai's and his tongue began a dance of love. A Zhai got lost in the moment and finally responded. It lasted five minutes and then Adam broke contact.
"I love you too, A Zhai."
Was this just a dream? Had he heard Adam correctly? If it was a dream he didn't want to wake up. He lay back down on the floor, his heart wanted to soar, but it was scared that this was a lie and just a dream fantasy.
Adam came closer and knelt down beside A Zhai, pulling him over on to his back. Putting his hands on either side of A Zhai's chest, Adam lowered himself slowly down. His eyes penetrated A Zhai's and then their lips touched. This time Adam ran his tongue over A Zhai's lips, then he opened his mouth, lower lip caressing A Zhai's, as it gradually closed. It was sensual and full of passion.
"She's still sleeping, we have some time alone. It took you long enough to realize how much you really love me. Your kisses helped wake me up," Adam confessed.
"But...But I thought you loved Eve?"
"I do, but just like you, I love you more. Not everyone would understand and I don't know how she would either, but don't shut me out once Eve wakes."
A Zhai stared up at Adam, "I... I... really you like my kisses?"
"Let me show you just how much I love you," Adam sat up and offered A Zhai his hand. "You haven't showered in days, let's go take one together."
"Wait... I-I-I don't know if I..." A Zhai wasn't sure if he could do more than just kiss Adam.
"Do you trust me?" Adam asked.
"Yes." A Zhai put his hand in Adam's and was pulled up to his feet.
Adam lead him to the bathroom and locked the door behind them. He helped A Zhai take off his shirt and then took off his clothes too. Adam stepped into the shower and waited for A Zhai to choose what to do.
Eve woke up and found herself alone. She remembered where she was and so went to look for Adam and A Zhai. Eve heard them talking and followed their voices. "Adam! A Zhai!"
"You woke up finally! I'm so glad you're both back," A Zhai admitted. "Group hug!"
The three of them hugged, but Adam's eyes lingered on A Zhai. Would they tell her? He waited to see what A Zhai would do. But Eve suddenly kissed Adam and A Zhai let go and stepped back.
"So you both remember me and everything we've been through?"
Eve answered, "yes and I'm sorry that my previous personalities caused so much trouble. I think now I won't have so many glitches. Thank you for fixing me A Zhai."
"I'm just glad you're back," A Zhai said. He looked first at Eve and then his eyes connected to Adam. "Our future together gives me hope and I've never felt love like this before."
In unison Eve and Adam said, "to our future together!"
THE END
