Author's note: Part 3/??
"Get lost, shorty." Pick's words still echoed in Rome's head. They stubbed his heart, making it sting. Sinking into his designed seat behind Emma and Porsche, Rome looked out the window. The place beside him was meant for Pick, but the older man refused to be near him. He made his friend change with someone else, and now a stranger occupied his side. With that, another drop of his hope disappeared. At this point, Rome wasn't sure if his perseverance to chase after Pick was strong enough.
"Hi, there. I am Din. You are Rome, am I right?" The guy sitting beside him spoke up. Rome reluctantly turned towards him, nodding. Din was almost the same height as Pick but didn't seem more muscular. He was handsome, yet Rome still found his soulmate more appealing.
"You are not a part of the club, right?" Din continued asking, and honestly, Rome found him a bit annoying. On the other hand, there was nothing wrong with making new friends and distracting himself from the heartache.
"No. My best friend is dating P'Porsche, and he invited us to join you," Rome answered. Din nodded knowingly.
"So Rome, what are you studying?"
"Multimedia. I want to be a photographer." Rome hesitated before answering. Din continued with the small talk, asking him things. The conversation let him drift from Pick, and Rome found it reliving.
After a while, his eyes travelled towards Pick's seat, and their eyes met. The older male's face was scrunched, frowning. His eyes shoot lasers at Din and him. Rome's heart skipped a beat as the spike of hope appeared. For the first time after meeting his soulmate, it wasn't him who felt jealous and hurt.
Maybe Din can help him get Pick to realize his feelings.
