Love To Madness

[01: Foreboding]

A/n : Please read the description first.

"We are all prisoners of some memory...
or fear... or disappointment. "

"Did you meet p'Sing??"

"Uhh.. thing is i was too busy with concerts and shooting of the new drama, haha.. but i will visit him in his new house for sure. Maybe next week?" Krist smiled sweetly at the fans as he walked away along with his team. After talking for a while with his manager, he got inside his black beast (he named his black Mercedes-Benz as such) and calls someone.

The person takes a while to pick up his call. "Hello nong,"

"Will someone tell me what's wrong??" Krist asks angrily."It's been two weeks already, and he doesn't wanna talk. Please, P'Jane... tell him to pick up my call. I'm too busy these days, or else i would've gone to his house already."

"You know it too, right? He doesn't share anything. Only you can pull things out of him. Half the time, i don't even know where he is or what he's up to. Like right now, im trying to contact him for the past one hour, but that brat has switched off his phone."

"Okay, just tell me, how's his schedule? How is he doing... It's been long, I'm not getting any updates. He's like my brother, you know too, i care." Krist sighed.

"His schedule was jam-packed since last week, but after his new series on air ended, now he's kinda like a free bird. But still, yesterday, i went and found him locked in his room. Uncle said he's busy, but I'm not sure what he's up to, really. I thought after the end of his series.. we will catch up, and i can finally ask him what's wrong... It turns out... not."

"Okay, P'Jane. Thanks for telling me. I will have to wait out another week to find out."

"Fighting nong, take care."

"Yes, you too."

(Next week)

Krist called Singto as he stood outside his apartment, but as usual, he didn't pick up his call. Before Krist could easily get inside Singto's two bedroom apartment place because he knew the pw, but now he realised Singto had changed the password. He rakes his hand through his hair in frustration, trying to understand why his dear brother got so angry after their last meeting. He doesn't remember saying any nonsense, then why!

This is probably the first time he has gone this long without any conversations with the elder. That, too, because Singto seems to be adamant in avoiding him, he is always one step ahead in running away from him. Krist went to his new home, but all he could catch up with was Singto's father since p'Sing went out just before Krist reached his place. Next, he went to their gaming gang, but he wasn't there either. He has asked anyone and everyone, but nobody knows the mysterious man's whereabouts, just when Krist is free to visit him.

Friday arrives faster than Krist thought. It was his current co-actress plus music vedeo partner Primily's birthday. Usually, Krist is too busy to attend everyone's birthday as for a fact he has hundreds of friends and tons of people invite him every other day.

Though Primily is different for him, not because she was extremely famous and that Krist felt thankful to get a chance working with her. But because she's as friendly and warm, he had ever known any of his co-actress before, also Krist got to learn a lot of things from her. With such a hot figure and cute face, Krist really admired her.

Anyways, when he reaches her home with a gift after a long day of hustle, Krist is up for a surprise seeing the person he was chasing after for almost three weeks. The man who disappeared on him without any apparent reason chatting away happily with Primily and others. The place was filled with Primily's friends, special fans, and many others.. so it was very crowded. Krist took long steps towards Singto, but the elder swiftly walked away without sparing him a glance. Krist felt disheartened.

Well, fine if you don't want to talk.

He turned towards Primily as he handed her the gift, wishing her. "How do you know him P'?"

Primily took his hand and pulled him towards a more secluded area. "He's in the same dance class as me... Singto is new he joined like three weeks before... but you know what? I feel something really off about him. I'm telling you because i really trust you, don't tell anyone, okay? Although i think all my friends there already know about him, so yeah."

"Of course not," Krist assures.

"He's hitting on me since the very first day... the guy is really persistent. Even after getting rejected so many times, he still approaches me!! It's really irritating, you know, because he's not my type at all. I have told him off again and again. Wasn't he your co-actor?"

"Yes, p'Sing and me... we have known each other for a long time." Krist replies, still confused. Singto hitting on Primily!? That's so weird... his brother never throws himself on others.. no matter how much he likes anyone, he would rather stay put in his place than approach openly.

"Why don't you talk to him... maybe he's lonely and needs to be introduced to more people of his type."

Krist nods awkwardly, " Yes, i will."

"And Krist, did you think about my offer?" Primily says with a flirty smile.

"I‐"

"At least go out with me for three dates. If we don't click, i will stop, i promise." She said, softly holding his palm between both of hers.

"Sure," Krist replies with a smile.

When Primily told him that p'Sing was throwing himself on her, he really couldn't believe it until one afternoon when he was having a shoot with her, and he noticed Singto waiting out.

Krist was hopeful... maybe the elder finally wants to have a proper conversation with him after so long, maybe he's here to clear the misunderstanding between them. But when they took a break, Singto walks straight towards where Primily sat, giving her food that he bought, trying to prolong talking to her as much as he could eventhough it was clear she didn't wanted to.

Their cold war have deepened to a greater level, so Krist decided not to try talking to him anymore... after all, he's going to be ignored as usual. Also, he was frustrated and felt angry himself, so he just looked away, revising his script.

This scenario continued for almost a month, Singto will come to his working places where there's Primily, too, be it in the company itself or other locations... Krist doesn't understand how Singto got to know about it since Primily told him, and she never gave that information to Singto.

Being nice and polite costs Primily to not be able to rudely reject Singto or even ignore him, so she too keeps chatting with him as a friend. As a result, dates between her and Krist gets postponed too. Although actually they are not dating but many celebrity columns are already suspecting Krist and Primily, having relationships. At one point, these types of news have become really common for them, so they don't pay much attention to it.

Finally, after a whole month.. when the shoot was finished on the last day, Primily was determined to go out with Krist. On the way, she meets Singto again outside the company building, who was hell-bent on taking her out the very same day. It was evening time, they start to argue, and after a while, Primily, who had had enough slaps Singto. This creates a huge scene as a lot of paparazzi and media was nearby, and the news can be seen on every celebrity gossip cloumns in the next few hours. Singto walks away from there. As well as Primily, who was in a very bad mood, cancels her date with Krist.
