Bai Yutang didn't know for how long he cried. Jian Ge just pat his head in silence, and sometimes repeat his words again gently.
"Everything is going to be okay, trust me..."
He just cried in silence. Letting all the grieves which stayed and gnawed his heart for the past two months to go, flowing out with his tears.
Before, it sneaked up quietly and took Bai Yutang under its arms slowly. Change him into someone he doesn't know. Bai Yutang felt like the old him vanished in thin air, gone with his father. He thought he would never feel safe again, never to feel secure again.
Bai Yutang didn't want to ask for help, because he didn't know how. Bai Yutang is also afraid of rejection. Even if someone helps him now, he also doesn't know how to pay it back. His father always taught him to protect, to give hands, and never owe anything to anyone. Paid back for all the kindness he received.
His father didn't teach him how to ask for help.
