Jimmy, Tommy, Poppy and Park were in the usual spot when Zee arrived. Zee lost a with in just a days Saint has gone.
"Hey, did Saint contacted any of you yet?", Park asked as he took a bite from his lunch.
"No, not even me, I think he have forgotten about us.", Tommy murmured.
"Give him more time, he needs a lot of time", Poppy countered Tommy's statement.
"Is he contacting you, Poppy?", Zee now broke his silence.
"No, he doesn't. What I've shown you is the last conversation I had with him..", Poppy replied.
"It's been three days though.", Jimmy continued.
"Yeah, it's been three days", Zee repeated what Jimmy had said. A long three days, Zee thought.
"Shall we video chat him?", Tommy suggested, Jimmy wrapped his arms on Tommy.
"Hey.." too late, Tommy had dialed Saint's account before Poppy protested.
"Let's gather around, hey..", Tommy invited everyone.
"I should stay here", Zee replied not moving from his seat acrossed to Tommy.
"Okay", Tommy sadly smiled.

Saint came out of the house to the garden, he felt at ease all of a sudden. After hearing his grandma's love story, his heart's been beating fast, can we make it? Can Zee do it for him? Am I selfish if I wish Zee and I ran away? Do you love me enough, P'Zee?", Saint thought letting out a sigh resting his eyes on the bed of red roses in his left side. He smiled.
"Argh! I want to lay on you, if only you hadn't have thorns", Saint murmured caressing the beautiful red roses. "I miss you, P'Zee.."
His moment was interrupted by his phone ringing, he took it and found Tommy requesting a video call on him, he smiled but deep inside, he felt guilty for not contacting them in almost 3 days now.
"Saint!!", Tommy's voice echoed soon as Saint answered the call. Jimmy, Poppy, Tommy and Park's faces appeared on the screen.
"Hey! What's up!", He chuckled, guiltily biting his lips.
"What's up? How about calling us once in awhile..", Tommy scolded Saint, he flinched.
"I'm sorry", Saint pouted, gaining smiles on the four.
"You look good..", Poppy trailed, "way better than last time I saw your face", Poppy looked at the silent Zee across the table.
"Am I?", Poppy nodded, " I think I won't be returning there, P'", he stated, voice sounding so sad.
"What!!", The four of them exclaimed, Zee's eyes widen.
"Why are.. Sain.." Saint suddenly laughed making the five on the other side frown.
"I'm just kidding, look at your faces", Saint continued laughing.
"Saint Suppapong!! You dare do that!", Tommy exclaimed gaining everyone's eye.
"I'm sorry, you know how my studies are. But seriously, your expressions, it's priceless.." Saint laughed at the fuming Tommy, Jimmy's trying to calm him.
As the video chat continued, Zee's heart's been beating fast. It's been awhile since he heard him, he would play the videos they shared together, but today's different. Saint sounded fine, guess he finally moved on, he thought. The mere thought of that made his heart clenched. Saint sounded happy now. He talked more with them, until Joss interrupted it by calling Saint at the back. The guys were startled.
"Saint, your Grandma is calling you, dinner's ready", Joss said walking towards Saint wrapping his arms around Saint's shoulder. Zee's eyes narrowed from what he's seeing, a stirring pain striking his heart.
"Oh, really? You go ahead first. I'll follow in awhile, I'm talking to my friends", Saint replied, face flushed because of what Joss had done.
"Oh, I see, I'm sorry if I interrupted you.", Joss guiltily replied, pulling back his arm.
"It's okay, you go ahead.", Saint slowly pushed Joss enough to make space between them.
"Okay..", Joss left.
"Saint, why are you with him?", Jimmy yelled on the other phone. He knew it will be asked. "Do you know him?"
"He, I just met him earlier..", Saint replied
"What? And he's with you now.",.
"No, he's actually my Grandma's friend, and so it happened that they have plans for today.", Saint explained. "What's with that questioning looks, huh?",
"He seems interested to you, Saint.", Park teasingly looked at him.
"Shut up, he's just a friend"
"You're friends already!", Jimmy exclaimed.
"Yeah, I don't feel weird on that thing..", Saint replied.
"Saint, I bet you know his name, Joss Wayar, he's a known playboy.", He added.
"He is? He doesn't look like one.", Saint trailed, leaving Jimmy in dazed.
"Let me warn you, guard your heart, Saint..", Poppy butt in, looking at Zee who's once again silent of what he saw. "He's a womanizer..",
"I've guarded it too well", Saint countered. "I'm not a woman, I learned enough P'",
"Just saying Saint",
"I know..", Saint's aware that Zee's in there, he was hoping that he could see his face, but his hope was pulled back when a familiar voice was heard on the other side.
"P'Zee..", Jennie's voice made the guys looked at the back where Zee was located.
"I've been finding for you, Auntie want us to go home together", everyone looked at the two, Jennie just publicly made her way to Zee. Saint wanted to Zee to stop her, but he didn't. He just let himself get dragged by Jennie and Saint saw that. Saint only smiled at Tommy who had looked back at him first. He tried his best to keep the effect of his shattering heart's underneath.
"I gotta go guys", Saint's voice pulled Jimmy's, Poppy's, and Park's attention back to him.
"Hm, Saint..what you saw it's..",
"No need to explain,P', I understand. I'm sorry I need to go", his voice cracked.
"Okay, call us some time Saint", Poppy replied understanding that need of Saint to hang up the phone.
"I will", Saint smiled at them, but the trace of tears collecting on his eyes are already evident on his face.
"Saint.."
"See you guys, bye!" Saint hung up the phone, and dragged his knees closer to him. Damn, Saint! How can you not yet compose yourself till now! How come you're still this weak! Saint scolded himselfnand laughed at the end. Oh God! You even planned to get him ran away with you! You're crazy, Saint."You're crazy..." he murmured, tears finally broke.
Saint's grandma saw Joss standing near the window watching Saint crying alone. She knows Saint's might not like it but she couldn't help, she wanted to help his grandson who's definitely having hard time right now. Joss' heart ache for what he is seeing. For the first time he felt like protecting the guy who's suffering outside. He wanted to know the reason, but he also wanted not to invade Saint's personal life, he just met him today, he only became friends for today, at least for him.
"Can you stay here for the night, Nong Joss?", Saint's grandma smiled sadly at him.
