Saint took his time walking alone. Celebrating gaining his freedom for two days that Mr.Panich kept him on his side. A few days to go before his school leave to expire, he never thought through his rest, he would be able to talk with Zee's mother, worst, he never thought that he'll be planned to trick by Mr.Panich. He's lucky, he got so much composure despite him being caught off guard, he thought.

"Oh God!!", Saint pulled his hair out of frustrations ignoring the fact that there were lots of passerbys. He then flinched when he felt his phone vibrated on his pocket. He fished it out, only to see Zee's ID on the screen. He took his time before he answer it.

"Saint..", Zee's voice echoed startling Saint, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Hey, what's up!", Saint replied in between.

"What? What's up? I literally didn't get a hold of your two days...you don't know how worried I am..", Zee scolded Saint.

"You've been trying to call me for two days?",

"Yeah, oh my God, Saint.. did something happened to you?", Zee added, pulling off Saint heart to beat as fast as it can.

"..P... I don't think..",

"I know, I don't have the right to ask, but I can't keep myself calm unless I know you're safe.", Saint's heart ached but could only smile.

"I got robbed", Saint added

"What!! Are you hurt? What...what..",

"I'm fine, not that rob P'Zee.", Saint laughed.

"What do you mean, I don't get you..",

"You'll get it soon, P'Zee.", Saint chuckled.

"Okay, if you say so. But are you sure you're fine?",

"I'm fine, ahhh...no, I'm better.",

"Hmm.Saint, by chance, did someone approached you?", Zee asked making Saint's breathing hitched.

"What ..what do you mean?",

"Nothing, I'm just worried. They said my dad is in business trip in Chiang Mai, I'm just worried that he'll come to you..",

"And why would he come to me then?", Saint asked.

"Well..you..know. I... you and I....", Zee realized something that ached his heart. "...yeah, why would he? We're not even dating anymore", Saint's heart clenched.
"...why would he even come to you?"
"P'Ze..",

"It's okay Saint. I just wanna know if you're okay. Please don't turn off your phone or whatever, Tommy and Poppy had been so worried for the past two days.."

"I'm sorry..",

"Oh, no. You don't need to say sorry.",

"P'Zee, it's not what I mean..",

"No, it's okay.. so.. uhm..",

"I said it's not what I meant!!!", Saint yelled.

"Saint.. what's wrong?", Zee calmly replied, Saint realized his mistake, rubbing the back of his head.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to shout at you.",

"It's fine. But..",

"P', I love you, and I will always love you. Your dad.. even if he comes to me, threaten me, I'll never let you go. I decided to fight for you, and I'm not backing out. He can do whatever he wants to me, but I don't care... all I need is you, P', all I need is you.",

"Saint..",

"I know we are in a complicated situation right now, but I... I'll try my best to get your dad's side on me. I may not be on the same status like Jennie, but at least I have your heart right? I'm not that being assuming, right P'Zee..",
