"Yearning in Silence"

8

Then

Chay

The thought of hanging out with Macau makes me feel all excited, this guy's amazing through and through, he is much more amazing than Kim. But who's comparing? No one.

After I was done showering, and putting on my best suit. I finally went down, and noticed that almost everyone was downstairs

P'Porsche, P'Kinn, P'Vegas, P'Pete, and Macau.

I happily went down stairs, and P'Porsche smiled at me, they were discussing which car to use, well technically arguing over it?

"I don't want to get inside Kinn's car, I have my own." P'Vegas complained.

"And I don't want to ride on your car either." P'Kinn talked back

P'Porsche and P'Pete shook their head in frustration. Some things never change.

Macau just sat there, smiling liking the show in front of him.

P'Porsche  probably noticed me, and shift his attention at me.

" You can invite Kim if you want." P'Porsche said smiling at me

I scrunched my nose at him, and rolled my eyes, I don't wanna be around him, not when I want to have fun.

"He is probably busy." I answered, my phone suddenly rang as I finished my sentence.

I looked at it, and saw the caller I.D, speaking of...

"I'll just answer this" I excused myself, and went outside

[On Phone]

"Hey." Kim started

"Heyyy." I answered

"Are you alright, you didn't replied to my messages" he complained

I fell silent for a while, I didn't know what to say, it's not like I could tell him that I'm avoiding him.

"Well, I lost my phone, I just found it earlier this morning, and I was occupied with some events that's why I couldn't reply. " I lied

He doesn't say anything at all

" What's up? " I asked

" Do you wanna hang out? I have a lot  of things I want say to you" he said excitedly

" I uh tomorrow's Monday, can't that wait? I'm hanging out with P'Porsche today. " I told him

" Actually, yeah it can wait. I'll see you tomorrow then!" He answered

" See you, Kim!" I said and turned off the call

***

" Was that Kim? " Macau asked walking near me

"Yeah." I answered shortly, I kept my phone on silent mode, and put it in my pocket.

"So when are you going to transfer again?" I asked

"Maybe next week, since I have to prepare all the requirements I need." He answered shrugging

" Have they decided which car they'd use? " I asked again

Ah so this is what they've decided, what am I expecting?

P'Pete drove the car, with P'Vegas on the shotgun seat, and Macau and I are on the backseat.

While P'Porsche and P'Kinn used another car.

We've finally arrived at the Carnival, I spent my 30minutes talking with Macau about how he was, and what's up with his life lately.

And in that 20 minutes being around P'Pete, and P'Vegas, I realized how love can bloom in any other form.

Friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, forbidden love, second chance, and love triangle, and like a lot more. But unfortunately, in all of that romance tropes, I am unlucky. I'm on the unrequited love trope.

When we entered the Carnival, P'Pete and P'Vegas was out of sight in a second, I didn't even get a glimpse of my brother as well.

They're lucky, they have someone who loves them.

Since they all just vanished like a bubble, that left me and Macau stuck with each other for the next couple of hours.

It was all so fun, we tried the octopus rides, the roller coaster,and I was enjoying it.

I went to buy a drink for me and Macau, he looked so sick, he vomited 3 times in a row.

"Chay" I heard the familiar voice of Kim coming from the back.

Which is I technically ignored, thinking that maybe I'm just hearing things, but it is also possible that he is here cause he is P'Kinn's Brother, and it's not like I could ban Kimhan in a carnival right?

"Chay" the voice called again, I still didn't turn, but when I felt a hand over my shoulder, that's when I knew he is really here.

I finally turned around, and damn if he isn't looking too handsome right now.

" O-hh, you're here." I stammered

"Well, P'Kinn asked me if I wanted to come... I didn't know you'd be here" he admitted

" Are you on a date?" He asked

I smiled at him genuinely. I don't know why I'm smiling, and I can't really understand what he just asked.

I might look calm from the outside but my heart's beating erratically right at this moment.

I wanted to forget about him for atleast two days but now I can't. Thank you P'Kinn.

" CHAY! " I heard Macau shouted

I turned to him, and waved at him. Signaling him to come.

He ran towards me, like a little kid. He bumped into Kim a little, and apologize sooner.

"Macau"
"Kim"

They said in unison...

"You know Macau?" Kim asked me frowning.

"Yes,. Chay and I are best friends since like forever." Macau said as he patted my hair

"Oh." Is all Kim can utter.

"Do you wanna come with us? We're riding the Ferris wheel next!" I asked Kim excitedly

And we did, we rode the Ferris wheel, we went inside the horror train, and played on claw machine, and Macau gave me the little teddy bear he won with claw machine, because I couldn't win. Kim won too, but he said he'd give it to Yohan tomorrow. Ouch.

I don't know, maybe it's just my imagination but, Kim looked really upset, he barely talks the whole time we were together, and he excused himself even before P'Porsche, and the other came to us.

But all in all, I enjoyed my times with them. I'm happy.

But sadly it's Monday tomorrow, and I am going to be hearing lots of brag about Kim and Yohan's date.

Ughhh! I just wish Macau could transfer school sooner.
