Anyone seeing the sight right now would gasp in pity. The omega is huddled in front of the gate leading to the courtyard of the house, sitting on the cold two steps. His legs are bent, almost touching his chest. And for some reason, the bitter tears rolling down the boy's soft cheeks couldn't stop.The sight is sorrowful. Tine hides his face with his hair, trying to wipe the tears from his eyes. Pained sobs escape through his lips and his hands begin to shake.
The scene from a while ago kept repeating itself in his head. The face of his teacher when he looked at him, the way he yelled and humiliated him in front of everyone...What for? He really couldn't understand. But understanding that asshole is the last thing on his mind right now.
Shame and anger merge into one and his cheeks burn. His hand balls into a fist.
Man who quickly took a glance at him through the window held back a grin. He walked out of the house and slowly closed the door, approaching the gate.
He stands above the omega, leaning his hand against the gate. Tine looks up at Man with teary eyes..
" Did you see how he shouted at me!? As if I'm a kid...I'm so ashamed. Stupid! I would respond to him but...then I would be like him. And for what? For a CD! "
The poor omega voices out his thoughts.
Man's lips rise a bit as he hears him shout. Even in this situation, Tine does not miss to do it. Don't get him wrong, he is not at all fond of his best friend's teacher. It's actually quite the opposite. He definitely didn't come outside to comfort him. Instead he came to..
" You should not put up with him...I mean, dealing with a man like Sarawat..If I were you, I would not stay here for a minute. "
His slick voice didn't make any impression on Tine. The omega couldn't even detect the alpha's try of persuasion just now. Instead, he sniffled and looked up again.
" No. I can't run away! If he's Sarawat then I'm Tine okay? I'll show him!...Stupid! "
Now Man had a hunch the fella is stubborn but could never guess it's this much. Is it a matter of honour and dignity? Or the desire to prove himself to Sarawat? Man didn't know. And that made the whole thing so much more exciting.
" Now I see you don't hesitate to sound like him. You don't hesitate at all. " His lips curl in a playful smirk at the omega who looks up, eyes and nose red from crying. His eyes are still shining with tears and he sniffles.
" I haven't said enough. I'll tell it to his face! All of this to his face! After I can stop crying... " He wipes his eyes, another sob escaping from his lips. Man looks down, facial expression a bit uncomfortable.
" If fact, there is one thing you need to know..You better know if you talk face to face. "
Tine's curiosity gets the best of him despite his anger and tears. " What is it? " He asks.
