Win got back to the apartment. He was drowsy but was glad that he got to spend time with Bright.

Once he entered the house, he saw Love who was already rushing towards him from the dinner table which had plates of food covering it.

"Hello! I missed you~" Love greeted him with a soft hug.

"So many food.." Win said as he felt his mouth watering from the pleasant smell.

They both sat down in front of the table and starting chomping down the big meal.

After eating, they walked to the balcony to have a chat while getting some fresh air. The city was glowing with lights and vehicles moved like large insects on the road.

"Um.. remember when the producer told us to go with the flow?" Love started.

"Yep. Why? What about it?" Win responded, feeling that something was about to happen.

"I did just that.. and.. I realise, I really really like you now." the shy girl confessed without looking in his eyes.

"You.. like me?" Win repeated. "We're not shooting right now, Love."

Love turned her head towards him and responded, "Exactly. I wanted to say this to you in secret. What about.. you?"

The boy began feeling sweat on his palms and his mouth opened to say something but no words came out.

He was a bad liar, and he knew it himself.

"I.. umm.. you're nice! I definitely, you know, enjoy hanging out with you. We g-got along really well too right?" Win blurted out. He meant those words but he knew those weren't what Love wanted to hear.

"How do you feel about me?" She asked with a shaky voice.

Before Win could open his mouth, Love interrupted him.

"Actually no, don't answer that." she smiled, facing away and looking at the view instead.

The atmosphere became awkward.

"I do. I like you too." Win said.

He knew he would regret this one day. But right now, all that matters to him was that he should try to make this work.

Maybe he was just confused about himself.
Maybe he could possibly like her for real.
Just maybe, he wasn't actually gay.

He felt stupid but he let self-denial take control of himself.

In a flash, he felt a small kiss planted on his cheek. Love was in front of him, smiling and blushing.

She was indeed cute and Win hoped that his feelings were caused by infatuation.

They smiled at each other and spent a few more hours having a late-night chat.

— the next day —

Gigie watched as Bright surprisingly woke up on his own and came out of his room without having to get dragged.

Weird but okay.. Gigie thought.

"How was your guitar lesson yesterday?" Gigie asked.
