Work Text:
Saturday evenings were precious existences, for most people and especially for Duan Jiayan. It was the one day of the week when he could have as much fun as he wanted and then lay knocked out on his couch to sleep off all the exhaustion.
Then he would wait for Lu Xingci to get home, and happily be carried into the bath by him.
A good few hours later, two, three, maybe more, the two would exit the bathroom, after bathing.
And at night, they'd lie in bed together just holding each other close.
It's been so long.
But all things considered, it was the day he looked forward to the most in the week. He used to, atleast. But for several months now...that routine had changed.
It was perhaps a special consideration by God's above, that today of all days was a Saturday.
The card is still on the table, he thought briefly.
An exquisitely designed invitation card, with elegant words written on its beautiful print.
There was his lovers name printed on that card, and beside that, a name that was not his own, Wen Xuelan.
Wen Xuelan.
He didn't know when everything started to go so wrong.
So, so wrong.
