Chapter 107 - Fragile House

Zhenyi asked her driver to stop at Fan Bingbing's apartment. After Zhenyi told Fan Bingbing of Sam's condition, she called the office for the sick leave. And she very well was aware of what disease Fan Bingbing had caught. It was certainly the Sam-ona virus. 

Zhenyi entered the building and after checking it was the right apartment, she rang the doorbell. A few minutes later, Fan Bingbing emerged and opened the door for her. 

She wore an oversized 'I-am-sad' t-shirt and Christmas socks. Zhenyi entered the living room and her eyes fell on the trail of crushed tissue paper scattered all over the living room directing to the bedroom. 

Fan Bingbing was sniffling her nonexistent tears. She indeed opened the door for Zhenyi but hadn't spoken a single word to her. And silently she went to what she was doing -- packing. 

Zhenyi was having a headache, dealing with two spectacular troublemakers was enough for today. But Fan Bingbing's condition was worse than she had expected. 

She looked around her room and what she saw there didn't surprise her anymore. With white walls, purple moulding, and silver accents, Bingbing's room was the perfect Pinterest aesthetic. Until one's gaze fell on the huge and ridiculous posters of BTS members hung on the walls. 

Her love for those K-popstars was overwhelming outer-worldly for someone like Zhenyi who didn't understand the meaning of idols in the first place. 

For a man-hater, Fan Bingbing was surely an anomaly. She claimed herself as the biggest man-hater but when it came to these boys, she went all fan girl which was ridiculous to Zhenyi. 

Fan Bingbing was primly folding a T-shirt and placing it into a suitcase on her bed. She went to her closet and grabbed a pair of shorts and started folding them in the same way she did with T-shirt. Then she picked the folded T-shirt and placed it in the closet and came with another. It went on for the next few minutes. 

Zhenyi rubbed her hand on her face in frustration. She grabbed the clothes from her suitcase and dumped them back into the closet. But Fan Bingbing ignored her presence, brushed her shoulders with hers as she passed to grab another pair of shorts and skirts. 

"What's with all of the tissue paper? " Zhenyi asked as she saw Fan Bingbing packing the wad of the tissue paper into the suitcase. 

Fan Bingbing sniffled but don't respond. 

In fury, Zhenyi grabbed the wad of tissue paper and dumped it in the trash bin.

"Where are you going?" She asked in a very calm tone opposite to the fury burning inside her. 

"UK. Saudi Arabia. North Korea. Pick one." Fan Bingbing spoke weakly. 

"Well, if you are planning to wear these shorts, Saudi Arabia is out of the question. And you wouldn't want to freeze in UK's weather. Besides you hate rainfall. Hence, Uk is out of the list too." Zhenyi answered her. 

Along with man-hater, Fan Bingbing was a water-hater too or one could say rain-hater. 

"North Korea it is then." Fan Bingbing spoke to herself. 

"You won't be able to meet your idols if you go to North Korea," Zhenyi informed her like a good friend she was. 

Fan Bingbing looked at her sadly and Zhenyi nodded her head as if to tell her to drop the plans to North Korea. 

"Then, I'll just go to my tea tae." She weakly said hugging the T-shirt which had her tae tae's picture on it. 

"Good for you," Zhenyi answered in defeat. She couldn't do anything with her. 

"Do you think I can bring my boys' poster with me? " Fan Bingbing asked almost stupidly. 

"You don't lack money. Buy more if you want. Anyways what's so special about them! " Before Zhenyi could stop herself, she uttered the words she shouldn't to a die-hard BTS fan. 

Fan Bingbing glared at her and went back to packing and unpacking. 

Zhenyi was getting tired of her unwanted and unnecessary drama. She came here to impart some reason to her dear friend. Reason and logic in Sam's case were absent from Fan Bingbing's life. 

She watched her friend continuing the dance of packing and unpacking. 

After a few minutes, Fan Bingbing stopped. 

"Have you met him?" She asked.

Of course, Zhenyi knew he meant Sam. 

Zhenyi nodded. "He is fine but not completely healed. Doctors will keep him under observation for few weeks."

She placed her head on Zhenyi's lap and spoke in a low and shaky voice, "He said not to show my unpleasant face to him again." 

Zhenyi was not a very good friend at consoling and soothing her hurt friend. But she was trying. 

"Do you want me to beat him with Godma's almighty broom? " Zhenyi asked her. 

She shook her head and in a shaky voice, she whispered, " He is already on the hospital bed. I do not want you to beat him. At least not now." 

"He doesn't deserve your care and thoughtfulness," Zhenyi told her. 

"He is your best friend " She retorted. 

"Indeed. But it doesn't mean he can hurt you with his bitter words. If he's my best friend then you are my friend too. Or perhaps a sister like Aria." Zhenyi told her. 

"He really is an asshole " she deadpanned. 

"Then why are you pinning for an asshole? " Zhenyi asked in return.

"Because I love the Asshole. You won't understand what it means to love someone. Love is solace and pain all in itself."

"Then, you can have your love to yourself. I do not wish to try it out. I'm not a masochist who is willing to make her life miserable and pathetic with all this love thing," Zhenyi solemnly replied. 

What was wrong with both of them? First Sam and now Bingbing. Why both of them were after her love life? 

She had specifically added in the contract and told her dear husband that love was out of the equation, and not so surprisingly he agreed too. 

Long Jie had said 'Love is a fragile house which eventually crumbles and what we have is untouchable.' She didn't love. What she had is enough for her. And look at what love had done to Bingbing and her father. 

She sniffled her real tears this time. " Thus, I curse you that you fall in love hard and deep. Then you will know what it means to love someone. How painful and out of control this emotion is! "
