Zee's POV

"Like ?!" We both turned and my eyes widened seeing Max and Khun Nu. Nat quickly let go of my hand as Khun Nu walked towards us.

"Khun Nu .." I said as he approached Nat.

"You like Zee ?" He asked.

"Khun Nu .." I said as he put up his hand for me to keep quiet.

"Nhu , calm down na .. It's not what you think .." said Nat.

"Just let me explain." Said Nat.

"No. How could you do this ? Hm ? I am your best friend." Said Khun Nu.

"Answer me !" He scolded making Nat jumped in his place.

"I don't like Zee .. I only see him a friend .." said Nat.

"Liar ! You know how much I hate liars !" I said as Nat shook his head.

"I am not lying Nhu ! I don't like Zee ! I like Max !" Fought Nat making all of our eyes widen at his sudden confession.

"What ?!" Asked Max as I sigh.

Nunew's POV

I fold my arms as I look at Nat and Zee.

"You like Max ?" I asked as Nat nodded , avoiding eye contact.

"You .. like me ?" Asked Max as Nat look at him , nodding.

"But didn't you rejected me ?" Asked Max as I look at Nat.

"I didn't want to .. but .. I can't betray my own best friend .." said Nat.

"Nat only asked me for help and advice .. that's all .." Said Zee as I sigh.

"I know we are colleagues .. and it's wrong for us to fall in love , that's why I rejected you .." said Nat.

"Why didn't you tell me about this ?" I asked.

"I couldn't .. because I was too afraid of what you're going to say ..." he said as my eyes softened.

"You always emphasize that since we are in one company , we should treat each other like family and not romantically .." he said and I sigh.

"I am so sorry Nhu and I am so sorry Max ... I really like you .. but Khun Nu is my best friend and I wouldn't do such things to a best friend .." said Nat as Zee look at me. I then slowly grabbed Nat's hand , holding it making Nat look at me.

"You're right .. I always emphasize that we should treat each other like a family .." I said and he nod.

"But I am not someone who is going to come in between of your love." I said making him look at me shock.

"If you like someone , you should be with them." I said before grabbing Max's hand , placing Nat's hand on his.

"Nhu .." said Nat.

"You're my best friend. Your happiness is important too." I said making him smile. Nat chuckle as happy tears rolled down his cheek. I cleared my throat , folding my arms.

"But that doesn't mean you can openly date in the office. You still have to keep it a secret." I said making Nat , nod.

"Thank you Jelly .." said Nat as I hesitated to wipe his tears.

"Er , whatever." I said , looking away. I then look at Zee who was looking at me. He smile softly , nodding.

- later -

I watch as Nat and Max talked things out. I smile slightly seeing Nat smile. I then got up with my bag , walking out of the restaurant , leaving them alone.
