1 year later...

It's my birthday! Big called me and said we will go to the bar drinking with hie friends ; including Tay. Suddenly the door was knocked. As I opened the door someone is standing Infront of it while holding a bouquet of red roses. I got so angry.

Big really didn't get the lesson from last time didn't he?

I immediately called him. When he picked up the call I yelled at him.

"But tee rak, I didn't send you the roses."

At that moment I just realized there's a card that was clipped at the bouquet. Now I know who sent it. It's Pol!

Hye, my love.

Happy birthday na. I know you're happy now. I am happy for you too.
This red roses are your birthday gift.

I love you.

Pol.

I get a bad mood suddenly. When Big arrived, he saw the roses. He looked at my face and immediately know that I'm not in a good mood.

"Are you okay, tee rak?"

I just nodded.

"It's okay if you can't go. Let's go next time. Okay?"

"I'm fine. Let's just go."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

We go to the bar. Big literally keep silent that whole night but he didn't stop giving me the drinks. I saw Tay talked to Big but I didn't bother to asked what is it they talking about. I got drunk and stayed at Big's condo.

When I woke up in the next day, Big asked me something. Something that I didn't expect at all.

"Can I ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"Do you really love me?"

I looked at him.

"What makes you think like that?"

"Because I think you still love Pol. You still have feelings for him. You keep calling his name last night."

I didn't dare to look in his eyes. "I love you. Of course I love you."

"Then, tell me. What can I do to make you forget about him? It hurt me seeing you like this because of him. He literally left you broken into pieces, but you still love him."

Since I didn't want to talk about Pol, I just replied him shortly. "Sorry."

After I eat and taking shower, Big take me to the flower shop where Pol order all the flowers from and sent to me. We asked the florist there if it was really Pol who sent those flowers. But no matter how hard we try to get the information they didn't want to tell us.

"I'm sorry, we can't tell you."

"We really need to know him. Please.", Big begged them.

"I'm really sorry. We need to keep it as our customers' privacy."

Big just looked at me. I slightly smiled and nodded at him. We left the flower shop. I wanted to call Pol but when I called him his number couldn't be reached. Big tried to call him too but still the same.

"Maybe he changed his number.", Big said.

I stay silent.

After that, Big take me to the mall. He said maybe I can relax my mind if we take a little walk there. Maybe watching a movie. Find something to eat. Just to cheer me up. I actually not in mood but seeing how hard his effort is to make me happy, I just agreed.
