Every afternoon Singto, New and Tay gather after class to hang-out and help each other for the examination

Of course, both Singto's and New's popularity arose because everytime people are taking pictures of Tay the two were getting caught by the camera. They are now being called the Marvelous trio of their school.

Whenever they leave the room, once they come back, their desk was full of snacks and sweets. New was so happy being appreciated by doing nothing.

"Are you that happy?" Tay asked

Smiling while holding a bar of chocolate New answered "Well this is my first time someone is giving me free food for doing nothing so basically, Yes!"

Tay took the chocolate New was about to eat "Then thank me! " while eating it.

"hey! That's mine, you have yours in your desk!" New reacted while trying to grab it from Tay

Then suddenly the door for the teacher opened

Singto entered the room, walked into the isle and started to speak with everyone

"Guys, we will be having an early dismissal, our teachers will be holding a meeting with other universities for our assessment examination for college "

After the announcement, Tay pull New and carry his bag while rushing towards Singto

"Let's go! We have more time to bonding and review!" Tay asked while pulling Singto

"Sorry guys, class mayors are needed in the meeting but you two can tag along! It's fine by me" Singto replied while also preparing to leave the room

"What no! " New reacted

New feeling like he's already rejecting Tay even though he's not asking him

"What I mean is we cannot review without Singto! But we can hang out" he then explained

Tay with a disappointed face while hearing what New said a while ago turned into a big smile

"Well then, see you guys tomorrow I'll be heading first now!" Singto waved and leave the both of them

Tay could not let go of his stare at New and didn't noticed Singto left

"Hey, Hey! What are you staring at!" New asked

Tay smiled wider and said "Nothing, I thought you are will wary of my presence, I 'm just happy we can hang out together"

New smiled while looking at Tay "Hey! Are you a kid? Don't you have someone waiting for you at home?" he asked

Tay keeps smiling while answering New's question "None, my parents are always busy so I eat and spend my time alone"

New felt sad hearing it, Tay might be spoiled but hearing those things that is part of his living must be tiring for him that's why he chose to be alone even at school

While they are walking on the way to a place they haven't decided yet New started a conversation

"I've been curious for it all along, I know it's been months but why us?"

Tay looked around, walked backwards and answered "Because, of you I guess"

New laughed and look at Tay "Don't fool around, remember my first day? You insulted me" he continued laughing while narrating everything that happen on his first day

Tay looked above and answered "Maybe because I don't wanna be soft to everyone and just to those I wanted"

Tay kept walking backward while talking to New, while New was staring at him in silence
