Timing!

It was the end of a semester, and two souls were too anxious to enjoy the break.

Kongpob was done with his last exam, but was unwilling to leave the campus, without getting a glimpse of his not-so-secret crush. Afterall, he might have to spend 2 months without meeting his love. He was walking up and down the corridor, trying to come up with a plan, to talk to his P', without making the elder uncomfortable.

Arthit on the other hand, couldn't even focus on the paper in hand, during the last 10 mins of his exam. Luckily, being a nerd, came handy. All that was on his mind, was how much he would miss watching his junior, secretly, for the next 2 months.

Both of them were oblivious to the fact that their friends knew everything, but chose to stay silent, to let them have the thrill of their first love. It was really cute to see two completely clueless, clumsy guys, blushing and giggling, looking at each other, even from far. They didn't have to talk to each other or flirt, before turning red, with a blush.

Kongpob, an otherwise confident guy, found his self confidence crippling, in front of his crush P'Arthit. According to Kong, his P' was a breathtakingly handsome guy with an exceptionally high IQ - a perfect combo! Though Kong did not have any blatant shortcomings, he understood that confessing his interest needed several trucks load of courage, transcending all what-ifs and buts. He always waited for the right time and right place, but that never happened, and the clock was ticking.

Arthit, who was the representative of his class and faculty, had no trouble facing any kind of situation. He was a calm and collected person, even amidst the worst of scenarios. He always radiated blinding confidence, which was even contagious. But more often than not, he found himself fumbling in front of his junior - unable to form complete sentences or meaningful ones.

It was as if, the moment their eyes met, both of them felt their confidence and control jumping out of the window, waving them goodbye, leaving it to them to embarrass themselves.

The only other common link between them, apart from the mutual interest, was Knot, who was Arthit's best friend, and Kongpob's cousin. That is how the two of them got to meet each other, and fall head over heels in love, right from their first meeting. But, unfortunately, both of them couldn't find the courage to express their feelings.

While waiting for the others, Kongpob pulled out his phone, to text his cousin, trying to ask him to help out. He needed to confess to his P' today, no matter what.

Across the campus, a pair of legs were violently shaking, thinking of ways to get his juniors number. All he could think of, was to ask Knot, his cousins number directly. He wasn't willing to take risks, trying to talk to the junior and scare him away. He was the head hazer, after all.

Knots phone:

Kongbro:
P'! Done with your exams?

P'Knot:
Yes, buddy. U?

Kongbro:
Yes, P'. Done. How was your exam?

P'Knot:
Hmm..looks like you need my help for something..why beat around the bush?? Just tell me what it is!!!

Kongbro:
Hahaha...P'!!!! You know me so well!!! Actually there is something I need some help with......

P'Knot:
Just spit it out already!!


Though Knot knew what exactly his younger brother needed his help with, he wanted to see how much the younger one was willing to go, to get what he wanted. He had a wide grin plastered to his face, waiting for Kongpob's response. Just when he thought Kong was taking too long to reply, his phone buzzed, indicating that he received a message. Anxiously, he took out his phone from his pocket, but his eyes literally popped out, looking at his phone.

Unable to contain any longer, it was Bright, who confronted Knot first.

"Ai'Knot!! Did anyone confess to you? Why were you grinning all this while, and why do you look so shocked now? What's happening?" Bright asked.

Putting a hand over his mouth, Knot extended his hand, to show his phone to Bright and Tootah, who were hovering over him. One look at Knots phone, sent the trio into a laughing fit. They couldn't contain their laughter, which was now causing them to shed tears...tears of happiness.

Suggestions started pouring from all directions, as to how this whole sitch should be handled. They were trying to come up with the best solution, when Knot took a step back and said, "I don't think I actually want to prank them. It's about time they got together. Unless we step in now, they are never going to confess or even take baby steps. Should we just let each other know?"

Bright and Tootah were giving it a thought, when Prem joined them. "Did anyone die? Why are you guys so serious?" he asked, without thinking much. He received stern looks from the other three, which sent a slight shiver down his spine. He just gestured as if he was zipping his mouth, unwilling to hurt himself because of his never cooperating mouth.

Knot took a screenshot of his notification, and clicked on the share button. Selecting both Kong's and Arthit's number, he also sent the other ones number, with a best of luck emoji!

The screenshot:

Thit:
Knot! I have a major crush on Kongpob. Give me his number!

Kongbro:
P'!!! I would like to know P'Arthit better. Can you give me his number? Ask him if he's okay with it and then let me know! Thanks P'!

Knot let out a subtle laugh, looking at how different their texts were, yet cute the situation was!

He knew both Arthit and Kongpob inside out and he strongly believed that they would make a perfect couple, perfect for each other!!

When he did not receive any response for more than 5 mins, he let out a relieved chuckle, understanding that 2 of his favourite people, have finally taken a step, towards each other!!

*The end*
