           "standards standards pa eh pag nahulog wala din namang silbi yan."

chenle could remember hearing the same phrase left his hyungs mouth countless of time before but not once he believe it.

paano ka ba kasi mahuhulog sa isang tao kung di' naman pasok sa standards mo? kung di' mo naman type?

so chenle couldn't understand why his hyungs and friends could say those words.

only did the phrase makes sense when he met lina yang.

lina was nothing more than a friend to chenle. well, supposedly — thats how she's suppose to be.

a friend, a gaming buddy, someone he can always contact when he wanted to go out and check a newly open place or someone who will always accept his gaming invitations.

but who would have thought that he'll end up falling for that 'annoying and noisy short stuff' — as how he describe the girl.

chenle could only embarrassingly look away when he recall all those time: looking disgusted and creeped out when he got mistaken as lina's boyfriend.

but look at him now, admiring even the way she scrunch her nose.

'this is stupid.'

he sighed loudly as he stood infront the flower shop, the scent of the flowers and plants dancing in his nostrils as he contemplated entering the place.

tomorrow would be their graduation day and the same day he's planning on confessing to lina.

not really the wise decision he would say, but its not like he'll have another chance. atleast, if he got rejected, moving on and accepting it wouldn't be too hard since the probability of seeing each other would be low.

it is a win-win situation on his side and who is he to refuse such opportunity?

after minutes of contemplating, he ended up sighing and thinking "fuck it" as he finally entered the place but the moment he step foot inside, he finally concluded that he should have taken more time to think.

now, varieties of flowers in various colors and kind welcome him, making it even harder to think what he came for.

he decided to look around, scanning the plants to the best of his abilities, weighing what kind of flower lina would like and maybe enchant her in accepting his confession.

as chenle thought of the girl's favorite color being green, he almost consider on just ordering leaves. "I mean, leaves are green, right?"

he never thought that choosing flowers could be this troublesome, he wondered how his hyungs could even do it.

all this preparing for confession and shit is all new to chenle that he basically have zero idea on what to do. he tried asking jisung for help, and as expected he throw a couple of advice and thousands of teasings along with it.

it was annoying and embarrassing, and now he have to endure and do it on his own, simply relying on jisung's advice and things he once saw his hyungs did.
