Phana's POV.

Since when did I start having this feelings for Nong'Yo? To be honest, I don't have any idea either... But the moment I figure it out, I only have my eyes for that kid since then.

I was just a scrawny, tall, hot headed 9th Grader back then. My life only revolved around basketball and playing the guitar. I like to make myself stand out among the others by talking bluntly in front of anyone.

It was around the time I've just reached p.u.b.erty. I admit I find that period quite enjoyable. Not a day pa.s.sed without those girls coming and looking for me including those from the same grade as mine, juniors, seniors, even seniors from other universities. I talked and played along with them to treat me free meals as well as having occasional s.e.x at times...

Until the day I met Nong'Yo.

Where did I saw him for the first time? I remember seeing him on the way back home right after having a fight with a few opponents from a different school. The wounds on my face are still fresh and new. I halted my steps when I noticed this kid with the same uniform as mine holding a kitten. He was a skinny boy who looked so thin with a pair of thick framed gla.s.ses stuck on his eyes which made him look like a nerd. Nothing was interesting about him at all.

However, the way he held that little kitten caught my attention. Normally, I always tried to be on the spotlight, but seeing him kneeling at such vulnerable position made me want to hide myself mysteriously like his shadow behind the nearest corner I could find.

d.a.m.n! He's cute.

"Are you lost? Where's your mom?"

Does he really think that cat can speak and answer his question? Silly...

"What should I do with you? I can't take you home or those Siberian Huskies will bite you..."

He appeared to be a wealthy kid. He even got a Siberian Husky too. The little kid looks at his left and then to his right (Geez! I have to jump to a nearby bush to hide.) until he finally decided to hold the Kitten back home.

Well, there's really nothing unusual to that scene. I know he's just being a good kid like everyone else, but believe it or not, it was the first thing that made me start looking at Nong'Yo differently and looked forward to see him do nice things on the next few days to come.

What I knew at that time was that he's a year younger than me and that he's goofy and clumsy. He never dare to look at me in the eye but that's acceptable since I used to be a hot headed bully back then and almost everyone else is afraid to do eye contact with me. I may be very good at academics but I'm also p.r.o.ne to fights which earned me the nickname as 'trouble magnet' among my teachers. It's like I was the boss at school that everyone needs to respect.

It took awhile until I finally became dejected. Why does that kid needs to be this shocked and scared whenever he sees me?

I know I'm a good looking guy but it's always like he sees a horrible ghost whenever we come across or I accidentally (take note) b.u.mps into him along the hallway.

That kid will end up running like h.e.l.l towards the opposite direction right immediately.

"Spied on him for you, my dear friend." Kit said one day at school. "That Nong's name you like is called..."

"f.u.c.k you. I never said I like him." I stubbornly denied it at that time. "He doesn't have b.o.o.bs."

"But you keep on staring at him for more than two weeks now, aren't you?" Beam added.

"He's just a strange kid." I shrugged. "He's too skinny. I don't know when but he'll be blown away by the wind anytime soon."

"Oh, that's bulls.h.i.+t."

"You blabber about him the whole week. It drives us nuts! You keep on telling us how 'Nong helped some old lady cross the street, 'Nong gave money to homeless people, 'Nong did this and that... Even if he's not doing anything inside the Seven-Eleven store, and you still keep talking about him."

"And now you're telling us you don't like him, huh?" ?

I really hate it when they both gang up on me.

"I don't know. I just find it quite interesting."

"So... You probably don't really want to know his name... Forget about it, then. Beam... Let's go get something to eat na."

Thud! I used my leg to block them.

"I'll buy you guys some lunch..." I coughed. "Just give me his name."

Beam smiled at the corner of his mouth. f.u.c.k that keen and naughty smile tag along with Kit's sneering face... I hate it!

"WaYo..."

WaYo means Wind.

No wonder the wind can easily blow him away.

"Wayo Panitchayasawad."

"s.h.i.+t!!!" Beam shouted out loud. "PNit-ChYSWad... Isn't that one of the top ten richest families in Thailand?"

"Importing Automobile Spare Parts Company." Kit added.

I was stunned ...

That kid came from a very rich family. In fact, one of the most prominent families in our country.

Man! I'm trying to reach for the star after all.

Wait... Nong is a guy so he should be a moon, not a Star.

Hold on a second... Am I even serious in chasing after him?

I can say that my family is also decent when it comes to financial stability, but there's no way it can be compared to Nong'WaYo's.

From that day, I could only take a glimpse of him from afar. Yo was still the same as before. He would lower his head whenever we b.u.mped into each other or he'll run away every time he gets to see me.

From middle school to the day I finished my high school... It had been long enough to make me look at n.o.body else but him...

Only him...

I still had women coming on to me which created rumours. Dating a girl from this school or that school, but none of these rumours are real at all. I was just playing around every day without being serious to anyone. I simply wanted to make my youth worthwhile.

As for Nong'WaYo... I didn't see him dating anyone, except for that big and tall kid who's always behind him everywhere he goes. I couldn't remember his name, but I knew that guy is quite handsome.

That was another reason why I didn't dare approach Nong. He's a guy to begin with. I didn't want to get rejected if he wasn't interested in me. Or he seemed like he already belonged to that tall kid because both of them are always together whenever I see him.

Days pa.s.sed by, I contented myself to become his secret admirer that I never thought of making any move towards him at all.

The first time I saw WaYo's card, I wanted to punch myself so hard. I was in the 12th Grade and it was my last day at school. I was mad at that time because I couldn't find the gift where the card was supposed to be enclosed. I only saw it lying on the floor near the table as if the gift was hidden somewhere and someone else might have stolen it. Moreover, I was even mad at myself to realize Nong'Yo has the same feelings as I have but I only let the time pa.s.sed by for several years without doing anything at all.

I didn't care about Beam's teases or Kit's questions anymore. I spent the whole day running around the school just to look for my Shorty (That's the nickname I gave him deep inside my heart.) I threatened every Grade 11 student I met along the way just to tell me Nong'WaYo's whereabouts. He's a friendly kid but it's so strange that n.o.body knew much about him in detail.

I supposed my last hope was his buddy, Nong'Ming who must've been the only person who knows everything about him... But sadly, he too disappeared along with his friend like smoke in thin air.

I've never seen nor heard of him after that incident. ?

I thought I could easily forget him, but what happened that day only embedded Nong's presence deep inside my heart and only made me realize how much I really like him.

I got accepted at a Medical School from one of the Top Universities in Thailand and I prayed so hard that Nong would follow me to study here once he finishes high school. I was hoping we can continue what we left off from the very beginning.

And my dream came true...

I met him on his very first day at my apartment. He's a jerk and looks a lot like 'Nong'Yo' (Which really is WaYo, you Stupid!) He's even such a spoiled young master which made me want to bother him more. It was my way of approaching him. Normally, I'm quite modest towards people whom I am not that much acquainted with that's why I feel guilty for treating Nong'Yo so bad just because he looked a lot like that little boy. He's totally clueless about it yet I feel like I wanted to take back all those times I had lost in the past.

The moment I learned the truth from Ai'Kit, I was totally dumbstruck.

Truth is, I was so scared of loosing him again but I was also not brave enough to confess either. I was afraid that he might have already changed his heart. I don't even know if he's still single or he's already in a relations.h.i.+p (He still sticks with Ming all the time like he used to.) All I can do was look at him from afar as what I always did back in high school. I'd be so mad and upset whenever someone dared to approach him (Like Forth, for instance. He's a good looking guy with a great body.) The reason I didn't do anything... No, I did a few small things since I can only do as much because I lack confidence. Another thing is I was also afraid that I will get brokenhearted in the end.

And I didn't want to give Nong'Wayo up... I really don't want to. Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publis.h.i.+ng, please remove it or upload a different image.

"What the f.u.c.k are you doing... dragging me out like this?" Forth complained after I pulled him out of our hotel room. Nong'Yo seems to have no idea how light and smooth his bare skin was that he suddenly walked out of the bathroom almost naked wearing only a piece of towel wrapped around his waist for the whole world to see. My heartbeat was beating so fast after seeing that bare white smooth skin of his. That's why I knew what Forth had had in mind the moment I turned to look at him sideways who's gone totally dumbstruck to witness such a beautiful view right before his eyes.

I didn't want him to see anything beyond what we already had. I have only seen this much, so should he. That's why I decided to drag him out of the room to let Nong'Yo cover everything before anyone else sees it.

"I was enjoying the view back there... He's so smooth... So White."

His h.o.r.n.y smile made me want to throw a punch on him, but I didn't. I just made a ball of fist out of my hand.

"Do you like him?"

"Yes." He nodded "Very much... Why? Do you like him too?"

I didn't say anything because I felt like I was splashed by a big bucket of ice water straight to my face. His confident personality worried me a lot.

Why can't I have the gut to admit it out loud just like him?

"I never thought of liking him at first. He's a strange kid who's a bit sentimental and encounters certain occasional mood swings." Forth said while smiling. "...But I don't know. Whenever I see him being so upset, I just want to cheer him up... Make him happy... And before I knew it, I have already fallen for him."

I clenched my fists tighter without me realizing it.

"Do you think he'll feel the same way for me?"

"I don't know." I replied. "I'm leaving now to go find my friends."

"Okay. Good luck, my friend..."

I then went to talk to Nong'Yo about what had happened the moment I found him sitting on the beach. (Man! He's really sentimental just like what Forth have said)... Every single sentence causes my heart to shake. Even more so, when I come to apologize for treating him badly, my heart shakes even harder.

And I was so confused why he became so mad at me when I told him Forth had a crush on him.

Well to be honest, I'd be mad at myself too if it had been me. Who would want the person you like telling you that another person likes you, would that be right?

I have to thank him though for carelessly blowing up like that. Otherwise this extremely idiot and big coward heart of mine would never have a gut to break this feelings towards him.

"a.s.shole... Now you're smiling." Beam saw me behind with my teeth showing from end to end the moment he glanced at his rear-view mirror while driving.

"Nong'Yo just replied to my message... So cute."

"You guys are now officially a couple? Oooh - got it all done through LINE... So tacky!" Ai'Kit teased.

"No... Not yet."

"What are you waiting for then? Go grab your chance, dude!"

I smirked. "Just wait and see."

"Whatever."

"Oh come on. I wouldn't chase him right away. I have to do it one at a time."

As long as I know that his heart beats for me the same as I do for him, it will no longer be difficult to take the next move.

I wouldn't let any moment pa.s.s by without doing nothing just what I did back in High School.

Trust me... I won't let Nong'Yo be single that long.

At the University Grounds

Our car arrives a bit faster than the bus so we made it on time to see the kids get off while the rest help the others carry their luggage one by one. I don't need to waste my time looking for my Baby'Yo. (I like coming up with nicknames for him deep within my heart). s.h.i.+t! I'm so excited. If we meet, how am I supposed to conduct myself?

"P'Pha, you still haven't left yet kha?" Nong'Kuk'Kai greets me with a smile. Beam and Kit threw meaningful looks at each other then takes a step back to let us talk comfortably. I'll kick your a.s.ses later, you traitors! "Do you want to go have dinner with me?"

"Don't you have to go with your friends, Nong'Sai and the other Nong?" I ask dryly while craning my neck around in search for Forth's car.

"Err...r. " Nong really chooses the wrong time to talk to me. "Can't I go with P'Pha?"

What the f.u.c.k is that flirting voice she's using while talking to me? I turn to look at my friends for help but they hurried picking up their sheets pretending to be studying. These idiots really love me for sure!

But when it comes to me and Nong'Yo, they wouldn't hesitate to b.u.t.t in. Perhaps try to help me get out with this one too, maybe?

Thank goodness Forth's car has arrived. "I'm sorry khrub... I have to go." I walk towards the car hurriedly forgetting my embarra.s.sment and all. I have to see Nong'Yo's face. Forth was the first one to get out of the car with a surprised and confused look the moment he sees me.

"Where's Nong'Yo?"

"Yo is ..." Ming points at the back seat but... "Awh... Stupid 'Yo."

He's gone. Why is he running away from me? Does he think we're playing hide and sick or something?

"Where are u going?" It's so easy to run after him... Didn't actually take that long.

Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publis.h.i.+ng, please remove it or upload a different image.

f.u.c.k!!! His face and ears are all red.

I couldn't hold my laughter at all. "Hahahah!"

"Shut up!" He must be feeling so embarra.s.sed right now. He's trying to be upset but its kind'a funny and makes him look cute instead. I s.n.a.t.c.hed his luggage from his hand to hold it for him.

"Calm down."

"I said shut up."

"Still mad at me?"

"Of course!" He yells but it doesn't seem serious though. I know he'll forgive me soon. "Why didn't you tell me from the start? You knew all along. f.u.c.k you!"

"How would I know that you're still into me?"

"f.u.c.k you." Thud! He kicks right at one of my s.h.i.+ns.

f.u.c.k!!! That hurts. Come on!!!

"Ouch! You kicked me." He's slender but why is his kick so powerful?

"You deserve it."

"I know. It's my fault... P' is sorry." I raise both hands up in the air.

"s.h.i.+t P'... I don't get it. Why should I always be the one to say it first? It's so embarra.s.sing." He complains or more like he babbles, making me show him my soft smile. "You're even laughing about this!" He points his finger at me like I'm some kind of a horrible monster.

"I don't know." I shrug.

"Man!" Nong'Yo makes a troubled face.

"Calm down."

"No. Give me back my luggage." He tries to s.n.a.t.c.h it from my hand.

"Not gonna happen." I said, raising it high out of his reach. "Let's get something to eat." I even took the liberty of holding his shoulders urging him to come with me.

"Not going." Nong'Yo tries to slip away, but too late. I've already grabbed his arms tight.

"Somebody is still P's servant."

This baby boy couldn't argue with me anymore. All he can do is make a resentful and begrudging face at me with his cheeks turning crimson red. He looks so adorable with that face. It's like he's so angry yet so embarra.s.sed at the same time.

What have I done to him? Poor boy...

"It's gonna be P's treat." Hopefully this helps to make him feel better.

...or maybe not? I begin to feel unsure. His face may look red but I couldn't read what he feels right now with that sour face he's wearing.

"Roasted Duck at MK (restaurant)?"

Nah... He's fine. I don't think I'm gonna have a problem with that.

Inside The Restaurant

Oh, Baby... You must be starving since you eat a lot. Now he's down to the second plateful of a large size Roasted Duck. Wow. Where did he hide all those food he just ate, huh?

"Why aren't you eating anything?" Nong'Yo asks me while the chopsticks are still in his mouth.

"I'm already full." Call it cheesy or what not but just seeing my little boy eating makes me already full. I'm so happy.

"I'll surely get fat..." He looks worried for a while. "Well... Forget it... I don't care."

"You look a lot better than you were in High School. You must have been taking good care of yourself for all these years.

"For whom?"

f.u.c.k! Seriously?

"Is it because of P'?"

"Yeah..." He talks while eating.

I smiled again thinking about what I just learned.

"P' smiles more often than you used to be."

"I really don't smile that often."

"I know." Nong'Yo speaks "But quite a lot often now."

"For whom?"

I threw his question back at him. It makes Nong'Yo stops eating and stare at me while I'm also doing the same thing to him."

"Shhhh..." his voice sounds like he's in distress. "Stop scattering your charm everywhere."

"What?"

"Nothing."

"It's only for you."

"Are you sure?" Nong'Yo points at me with his chopsticks. "Don't make me rake the ashes of what you did during the past few days."

"?"

"You're always kind and generous to everyone."

"Haven't you realized that the way I'm treating you is more different compared to the others?"

Nong'Yo is stunted a bit like he's probably thinking and may have finally noticed it too.

"Trust P'..."

I keep staring at him while he keeps avoiding my eyes.

"Are you chasing after Yo now?" He mumbles while stirring his veggie noodles in a bowl with a trembling state.

I smile before saying it with a loud and clear voice.

"Do you even have to ask?"
