Krist flipped over pages, threw the Sotus S script to the coffee table, and sank into this chair.

"....the time has come AGAIN...fuck, I don't know how I can face him."
Krist murmured.

"...Krist?"
Krist turned around in the direction of the voice.

"Pho. Did you finished your work today?"

"Yes. How about you?.. where is Mae?"
Pho walked into the living room with his office clothes.

"Mae went our for the grocery shopping. My work happend finished earily so I stooped by."
Krist smiled.

"That's great. Will you eat with us?"
Pho asked happily and sat on the sofa across from Krist.

Krist nodded.

"Great!"
Pho smiled at him.

He smiled...

Then...

There was an awkward silence for a moment.

Krist gazed at Pho, who had shifty eyes.
-Is there anything he wants to ask me?
Krist wondered.
"ahem...do you want to drink something? I will get water for myself.."
Krist got up.

"Water, please..no ice."
Pho said.

"........"
After Krist returned from the kitchen with water bottles in his hand, another silence falls again.

"Ahem...ah...what is that?"
Finally, Pho said.

"Huh?"Krist followed his father's gaze.

"Oh, that? My drama script."

"Is that Sotus? How is it going?"
Pho asked enthusiastically.

Of course, Krist's family knows about his work and Sotus the series. It became the turning point in Kirst's life and very important for the family when Krist became the first Sotus drama's main character.

"It's good. The drama shooting is on schedule, and it will be over soon. Tomorrow I have to leave my house at 3:30 am to go to the site."
Krist sighed.

"Wow, that earily? Where will you go somewhere?"
He asked.

"Yes. I will go to the beach."
Krist smiled.

"Oh, wow. Beach? Sounds fun....ah...How about him?"
Pho said.

"Who?"
-There he comes.
Krist pretend to know nothing

"HIM! ..Singto."
Pho looked at Krist's face with a fake smile.

-I knew it.

"P'Singto?...ohhhhh. Yes. Of course. He ..he is my partner. **cough**cough, I mean, he is also a main character."
Krist blushed.

-Geeze, how come I feel hot with my cheeks.

"OH Yes! Of course!!"
Pho hurriedly chugged his water....and choked, too.

"Eh? Pho? Are you okay?"
Krist quickly got up and took paper napkins, and patted Pho's back.

"** cough, **cough, I am okay!"
Pho smiled.

"Be careful, Pho."
Krist said.

"......"
Pho stared at his worried face for a while.

"What?"
Krist got confused by his stair.

"...No. I just thought it's been a while to spend time with you like sit togher and chat."
Pho said.

"I am sorry, Pho."
Suddenly, Krist felt bad.
