"My cousin made porridge today. I brought some with me. But, you can have it." Lam states passing his lunch to Forth.

Lam's cousin was a really good cook. Hence, Forth wasted no time in accepting the food and devouring it. He has been sick since yesterday and since he was away from home, he could only get porridge from a stall. But, he hated the taste. Lam's cousin was an angle for cooking this.

While he was engrossed in the delicious food, he heard Park mutter, "Wow! It's been long since I saw him here. I guess he missed engineering girls."

Forth raises his head and looks in Park's line of vision.
Definitely it's been long.

Beam Baramee was here surrounded by girls as usual.
Its been long since Forth had seen him. He still looked the same, charmer.

Forth turns back towards his food ignoring everything and finishes lunch fast, then gets up and walks out of canteen leaving his friends behind.

6 Days later...............

Forth's POV

Thank God! I am okay now.

It's been four days since I last had fever. Today is my birthday and I desperately want to go to a bar tonight.
Maybe we could have a dinking party at Lam's house. But, I need it. It's been so long and I have been super busy.
I need a break.

"FORTH"

"WAIT"

I turn in the direction of the voice.
Lam was walking towards me. He held a few items in his hand.

He rushed towards me and shoved three boxes in my hand saying "Got those from your fans."

"You keep them. I don't need..." I start before he cuts me off.
"They gave those to you so don't act like an asshole. Take them and open them maybe." He hisses.

I am confused now. I don't usually do that. I ask, "But, I don't keep them every year. Why this time?"

"Just keep them. I have work to do. I am going first." He replies while rushing back outside.

I turn around to get to the class when I spot Park staring at me. Not again!
I walk towards him and we silently go to the class together.

He suddenly points towards the gifts and asks, "Lam gave you those?"

Here we go again.
"No. Someone gave him to pass them to me. He wouldn't even buy me a beer, let alone a gift." I reply as we get into the classroom.

Meanwhile............

"I gave him your gift with two other ones. You happy? Now give me back my assignment." Lam hisses to the man leaning on the wall in front of him.

"Why would I be happy when you gave him gift from others?" The guy smirks then adds, "But I am kind-hearted. So take it back"

Lam snatches his assignment back and glares at the smirking face.

"I can snitch on you anytime I want." Lam hisses.

"Go ahead. I will just tell Park that you fantasize about him." The guys replies laughingly and walks away avoiding Lam's rage.
