Copter pushed the earbuds in and closed his eyes as the familiar song started to play. He'd been listening to it on repeat ever since his birthday. P'Kim had a nice voice but more than anything he had put his everything into covering this song, heart and soul.

"Mmm, hmm, yeah

Mmm, hmm

Hiding from the rain and snow

Trying to forget, but I won't let go

Looking at a crowded street

Listening to my own heartbeat

So many people all around the world

Tell me, where do I find someone like you, boy?

Take me to your heart, take me to your soul

Give me your hand before I'm old

Show me what love is, haven't gotta clue

Show me that wonders can be true."

Kimmon had pressed a flash drive into Copter's palm before disappearing into the cold night that day, not before kissing his lips softly one last time. Rolling onto his back Copter dragged his fingertips along his lips, trying to summon the feeling of Kimmon's lips on them again.

It had been a brief, shallow kiss but Copter could not stop thinking about it every time he lay awake at night not being able to fall asleep like right now. He would plug in his earphones and listen to Kimmon's voice singing the most romantic love song he'd ever heard.

"Standing on a mountain high

Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky

I should go see some friends

But they don't really comprehend

Don't need too much talking without saying anything

All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing

Take me to your heart, take me to your soul

Give me your hand before I'm old

Show me what love is, haven't gotta clue

Show me that wonders can be true."

They say nothing lasts forever

We're only here today

Love is now or never

Bring me far away."

Copter may be biased because it's Kimmon's soft, ardent voice singing the lyrics into his ears through the earbuds.

The school term is coming to an end with the approach of the Thai new year but that didn't excite him at all.

What excited him most was Kimmon's birthday on April 1st. And he had big plans.
