It was a hot, quiet Friday afternoon at Sun's place.
Jade was peacefully asleep on the bed when Sun's fling, Victor, suddenly showed up. He had called earlier, sounding stressed, saying he had "an issue" he wanted to show Sun.
"So I don't know if it's my system acting up or if it's the game you gave me," Victor complained as soon as he entered.
"Nah, it's your system," Sun replied instantly. "I told you before what was wrong with it."
"Hah, I don't have money for a new one. But… that's not why I'm here."
Victor shifted awkwardly. "I think something is wrong… back there. It looks like an anal wart and it's painful. I want you to check it for me."
Sun stared at him. "No. I'm not checking that."
"Sun, you worked with that LGBTQIA health program. Don't tell me you haven't checked something worst than this," Victor insisted.
Sun sighed deeply. "Fine, fine. You're disturbing me, Victor."
He bent to check, tugging Victor's trousers gently. But as soon as he looked, he realized there was nothing serious. Sun scoffed and shook his head.
What happened next shifted the atmosphere completely.
Cause when he lifted his head up,Victor was staring at him intensely.
Familiar heat flickered between them,dangerous and unspoken.
Victor leaned closer. Sun didn't move away. A tension formed—quiet, slow, dangerously familiar. And then, without warning, things escalated.
Clothes rustled, soft breaths filled the room, and the song "Hurt So Good" played faintly in the background.
The heat between them grew thicker, the air heavy with a forbidden rhythm.
And Jade—still on the bed—awoke to the sound.
He didn't move.
Didn't speak.
He simply kept his eyes half-closed, pretending to sleep while the scene unfolded across the room. Something about the moment pulled him in. It felt forbidden … yet he couldn't look away.
A deep curiosity tugged at him, confusing and intense.
He stayed that way until everything quieted, then pretended to "wake" just as Sun was preparing to escort Victor home.
Walking Victor out, Jade tried to spark a conversation—even though he didn't truly like Victor. It wasn't the man he was curious about… it was the thing he had seen and couldn't forget.
"So, hello… I'm Jade," he said, offering his hand.
"Yeah. Victor," the man replied, clearly trying not to encourage more talking.
But Jade was Jade. He didn't stop.
"So how do you know Sun?" Jade pressed.
"We met at a church conference. We shared a room with another guy. That's how we got close," Victor said.
"Ohhh, nice. So how did you know he was queer, Sun?" Jade asked bluntly.
Sun shrugged. "I have good gaydar. And he came onto me… isn't that wonderful?"
Jade gasped dramatically. "I always knew you were a sinner, but this one—having things happen in the house of God? I'm trying to remember that Bible verse that fits your character now."
He burst out laughing.
Sun rolled his eyes. "I know I sinned, but I enjoyed my sin."
"I know you enjoyed it," Jade said, giving him a mock judgmental glare.
He turned to Victor. "So is what he said true?"
Victor looked away. "I… don't really remember clearly. It's blurry."
Jade stepped closer. "Since then, have you been with other guys?"
"No," Victor answered quietly. "I think… I'm only attracted to Sun. I've never felt anything for anyone else."
Jade blinked. "Ohhh, Sun, you're special o. Isn't that wonderful?"
Sun smirked proudly. "I know. I know."
They reached Victor's stop.
"Alright, I'm here. Sun, I'll call you. Jade… nice meeting you again."
Victor waved and climbed into his cab.
