will wake up tomorrow

"Boss, I finally got in touch with you. If we can't get in touch again, we will call the police." Judging from the tone of the store manager, he must be very anxious.

The elder brother reassured: "I have some private matters, and I left in a hurry, so I didn't tell you. You must not call the police."

"Okay, okay." The store manager sniffed, "Boss, as long as you are safe."

"Don't worry, I'm fine..."

My brother asked about the recent situation of the milk tea shop, and explained some precautions.

During this period, the younger brother kept staring at the older brother intently, and the older brother turned his head and talked on the phone to the window.

"...Let's do this first. I'll come back in a while, and I'll leave some things in the store to you."

"Okay boss, we will wait for your return."

"Hold on! Give me the phone!"

Just as my brother was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly heard a familiar male voice, it was a young man.

"Brother, brother, you..." The young man on the opposite side panted heavily, as if he had just finished strenuous exercise.

"Don't worry, speak slowly."

Hearing his brother's gentle voice, the young man on the opposite side choked up: "Brother, where have you been? Do you know that I'm dying of anxiety."

After discovering that his elder brother was missing, the young man sent several people to investigate, but they searched the entire city A to no avail. It was as if his elder brother had suddenly disappeared in city A.

"I have some things to do, and I'll be back in a while."

"Aren't you in City A anymore?"

"Ah."

"I agreed to continue teaching you oral English this month, but you disappeared without even saying hello."

"Sorry." My brother looked at the handcuffs on his wrists, with a helpless expression on his face.

"It's hard to coax, who told you to make me not think about tea and food, so worried."

Based on my brother's understanding of young people, since the young people have started joking, it proves that the young people are no longer angry.

My brother is not used to letting others worry about him, especially that person is one of the few people who has helped him many times in his life, so he really feels sorry for it.

"Well, when I come back, I'll make you your favorite mango sweet."

"No regrets."

"Well, absolutely not..."

The mobile phone was taken away from behind, the elder brother turned around, and met his younger brother's dark face.

"I'm not finished yet."

"I only agree with you to talk to the staff of the milk tea shop, not to that idiot."

"This is my phone."

"I confiscated it." The younger brother said, putting his mobile phone back into his pocket.

"Can you be reasonable?"

"No."

The younger brother went out of the room with a sullen face.

elder brother:"……"

It's not that the elder brother can't see that the younger brother is angry, but the person who should be angry, isn't he who is under house arrest by him?Regarding the younger brother's pre-emptive approach, the elder brother has no idea what the younger brother is thinking.

However, he has never been sure about his younger brother's thoughts, whether it was seven years ago or now.

After a while, the sound of "bang bang" beating sandbags sounded downstairs.

My brother picks up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs with chopsticks. The sugar is soft and soft, the sweetness is moderate, the meat is crisp and tender, and it melts in the mouth.If it wasn't for many times of practice to achieve this effect, it can only be said that my brother is very talented.

The muffled sound of the sandbags stopped at some point. My brother finished his meal and leaned against the bedside to start reading.

Although the younger brother is too much, at least he still has some humanity. For example, the younger brother found out that he was reading a foreign novel, so the younger brother bought more than ten different translations and the original texts from three publishing houses for him to read, to relieve his boredom. .

After a long time, the younger brother returned to the room with the moisture from the bath, still with a calm face, the elder brother glanced at the younger brother, and continued to read.

In the end, it was the younger brother who couldn't hold his breath first.

"What is the relationship between that man and you?"

"My friend is also my teacher who teaches English."

"anything else?"

Brother put down the book: "What relationship do you hope we have?"

The younger brother was at a loss for words.

"Why did he call you brother?"

"Because I'm older than him."

The younger brother smiled bitterly: "You treat him much better than me."

"He treats me much better than you treat me."

Hearing what my elder brother said, my younger brother was suddenly speechless, unable to utter a word of complaint.

That's right, I don't even look at what kind of virtue I was at the beginning.

He knew that he had completely broken his promise in front of his brother.

"sorry."

"Don't tell me you're sorry." My brother waved his hand, "There's no need for that."

"Yes, brother, it is necessary."

The younger brother squatted down, knelt beside his elder brother's legs, and looked up at his elder brother: "I want to make up for the mistakes I made before, but I need a chance."

The older brother looked down at the younger brother. Apart from regret, the younger brother's face was sincere, and there was really no trace of fraud. The older brother almost began to believe that the younger brother was indeed guilty of what he did back then.

"Let's let the past go. We were all young at that time, and we were inevitably not mature enough to do things, so you don't have to bear any guilt. I won't blame you in the future, whether you or your parents, I won't blame. I just want to live my life right now."

Hearing the excuses his brother made for himself, his younger brother couldn't help but feel sad. He didn't want to hear any excuses about himself. He only hoped that his brother could scold him, sue him, and ask him for the love that was wasted on him back then.

"But I love you." The younger brother didn't know how to express his heart, he could only say it so bluntly.

This is the second time that the younger brother confessed to his elder brother, and the elder brother pretended to be surprised and opened his eyes wide.

"Maybe you don't believe it, but I really love you, just like you once loved me."

Whether it was intentional or not, he emphasized the tone of the word "love me".

"Love?" My brother raised his wrist, and the handcuffs made a "crash", "Is that so?"

"..."

The elder brother who was gentle and considerate to him in the past may never come back again. The elder brother always brought a knife in his words, blocking his way forward, and he wanted to get closer Brother, you can only walk on the edge of the blade.

Seeing his brother's dejected expression, his brother felt a little strange. He sighed: "You are not gay at all. You have had a girlfriend before. How could you like men? And you are still a man like me... useless."

He actually wanted to say that his younger brother was just a result of habit and possessiveness, just like what his uncle said that day, that his younger brother was just a "giant baby" who needed him to be saddled and reared, but he didn't say that in the end, and his sad appearance made him lose his mind ,

Hearing his elder brother belittle himself like this, the younger brother felt bitter in his heart. Isn't this what he used to insult his elder brother?Now that his brother said it, he just felt ashamed.

He shook his head and said, "No, how could you be a worthless person? Not only you are not, you are better than anyone in the whole world!"

The younger brother scratched his hair anxiously: "As for homosexuality, I'm not sure, I don't know if I am, because I only love you, and I have only loved you!"

The air quickly quieted down after the younger brother eagerly confessed, and the two went up and down, staring at each other for a long time.

"What about the school belle? Back then you told me that you wanted to marry her and give her the best life. If you weren't the girl you really love, how could you make such a promise?"

"I never liked her, I was just afraid..."

He dared to swear that he had never been attracted to anyone other than his elder brother. As for the school beauty... the school beauty is a good girl, but it was his childishness and timidity that forced him to use the school beauty and hurt his brother.

"Afraid of what? Afraid of turning into a disgusting gay like me?"

"Brother, please, don't say that again."

The younger brother lowered his head. The elder brother was obviously belittling himself, but the younger brother was almost ashamed.

Seeing how humble his younger brother, who has always been glorious, was so humble, he didn't continue this topic.

After a long time, he raised his wrist: "Can you take this off? I want to go to the bathroom and take a shower."

The elder brother's tone was the gentleness that he hadn't seen for a long time, and he even called his younger brother's name.

"I won't run away, and I can't run away even if you are here."

The younger brother's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He hesitated for a while, then turned and walked out the door. When he came back, he had the key with him.

The elder brother who had been locked up for four days finally regained his freedom. He moved his stiff body and stood up, as if he had lifted a heavy burden, but this was just an illusion, because he was still not free in essence.

"The bathroom is at the end on the right, put on my clothes first."

"Ah."

The older brother took the bathrobe and towel from the younger brother's hand and walked out the door, but the younger brother followed all the way to the bathroom door.

When the elder brother entered the bathroom, the younger brother wanted to follow in, but the elder brother stopped.

"Do you want to watch it even in the shower?"

After being reminded by the elder brother, the younger brother realized that half of his foot had already stepped into the bathroom.

He backed out: "The water temperature in the bathtub has been adjusted. I'm outside. Call me if you need something."

After closing the bathroom door, my brother put the water in the bathtub and lay down impatiently.The warm water flowed around his body, and my brother breathed a sigh of relief, exhaustion and tiredness also hit at this moment...

My brother woke up with a knock on the door.

"Brother, it's been more than an hour, haven't you finished washing?"

"If you don't say anything, I'll come in."

Hearing his brother said he wanted to come in, he stood up abruptly, but the bathtub was too slippery, so he fell back again, making a splash of water, and brought down the bath liquid from the shelf along the way.

"Brother, what's wrong with you!"

After the younger brother heard the noise, he rushed in and saw the elder brother sitting in the bathtub, naked.

The younger brother's throat tightened suddenly: "Brother..."

"go out!"

When my brother came out again, he had already wrapped himself tightly in a bathrobe.

My brother stayed in this house for four days, but he has not seen other places.He walked around the second floor as if visiting, and his younger brother followed him closely.

"When did you buy this house?"

"When I graduated from college."

Brother nodded, he was not surprised by this answer.

How many people just graduated can't even afford to rent a house, but my younger brother can buy a two-story apartment. Although it is not a luxury house, it is also very remarkable.

The elder brother has never questioned the ability of the younger brother. The younger brother is a high-flying bird. Even if his wings are bound at the beginning, he will eventually spread his wings.But what he couldn't understand was that his younger brother was already soaring in the blue sky, the sky was high and the sea was vast, and there were countless scenery waiting for him, so why did he return halfway to his small ruined temple.

Seven years ago, his younger brother hated him so deeply that he couldn't believe that his younger brother loved him.

"Is this your room?" My brother pushed the door and found it locked.

"Yeah." The younger brother didn't intend to open the door for the elder brother.

My brother took one last look at the closed door and went down to the first floor.

The first floor is mainly a large living room. The whole house is in a simple style with a single color tone, which is in line with my brother's personality.

Walking to the gate, the elder brother saw the combination lock on the door. No wonder the younger brother uncuffed him so easily. It turned out that he really had nowhere to escape.

My brother stood in front of the door for a long time.

"Brother, you must be very confused now, but you just need to know that I am protecting you, and I will never hurt you again. The original me has long since ceased to exist."

The younger brother stepped forward and grabbed his elder brother's shoulders. The elder brother trembled reflexively, but he didn't escape in the end.

The elder brother's way of allowing him to get closer injected a glimmer of hope into the younger brother's originally depressed mood, and he slowly leaned his chest on his elder brother's back.

At this moment, his heart hanging in front of his brother finally fell to the ground temporarily.

That night, my brother received an email from his mother——

"They have made new moves. I am worried that his hiding place may be exposed, but don't act rashly. Be careful recently and wait for my news."
