My Endgame

~7~

First pov:

"wh-what are u talking about?"
Was it for real? Did he really liked me? Did I liked him back? I was panicked already. Was this the endgame i always thought of? But how?

"Hey, look I'm not sure. I just assumed that. The way he talked about your likes were like he had byhearted them. And it gave me a feeling that he likes you" I was disappointed I don't exactly for what, but I was.

"You must have misunderstood it then.khaothung can never like me." I said finally letting out the breath I was holding in for a while.

"Maybe. But I think u should give him a try if he does like you. You both would be a great match. I mean he knows you more than anyone." Khaothung and me? Great match? Was it? But ohm is my endgame and i don't wanna be distracted by anything. I was in love with ohm for so many years I can't let that slide away.

I looked at the road, putting my hands in my pockets "no. Khaothung was never my end game. I can never fall in love with him."
Can I?

"How do u know?"
Exactly! How did u knew?

"Because your are my end game!" My mouth slipped as I was frustrated. I mentally slapped myself. I could feel, I was avoiding eyes contact with him and so was he. I sneakily looked at him, he was blushing. I made ohm blush. It was like a achievement but i wasn't excited or happy. I was so much nearer to my goal but yet i felt I was far away.

Khaothung.
What did he said about me that made ohm think he was in love with me or was he really?

...
Khaothung pov:

As i was sitting infront of First i could feel there was a different silence between us. An awkward one.

"Is everything ok?" I asked hesitating as i thought he had a problem with ohm.

He looked straight in my eyes making me gulp down my throat.

"What did u told ohm?" He asked all of the sudden making me wonder what I did to ohm. As far as i remember i always avoided contact with him because I didn't wanted any complications.

"I said noth-" before listening to me First bust out.

"While u guys were buying drink. When he asked u about me. What did u told him?" He looked dead serious for the first time that made me wonder did I said something offensive.

"I-i just said about your likes. did I say something wrong? I thought that's what u wanted. ohm to hear all the good things about you."

First pov:

Hearing khaothung's words gave me a disappointment. Did he said nice things just so ohm would think nice about me? Did he not thought about me the same way he talked? Was he really not in love with me?

"Oh-" the only thing that escaped my mouth 'oh.'

"Yea. Why? Did ohm said something? Was i wrong about something?"
Oh ofc you were. You thought something nice about your bestfriend and then you just say it was all a lie.

"No. He just thought we were a thing because of that" I said hesitating and continuing eating.

"Ohh come on the whole University thinks. But we both know right we are just best buddies." He said pressuring on the word best buddies and continued eating his food.
Best buddies.
That was the truth we were nothing more than best buddies. Then why was I sad hearing it?

"Are u free today?" Khaothung asked making me come out of my thoughts.

"When?"
"After the classes. Ohm, is he coming to pick u up today?"
Yes he was. But i didn't said it instead I asked
"Why?"
"Nothing..i thought we'll go out or something. I mean mark and neo were hanging out and they invited me but i didn't wanted to go-" before he could complete it escaped my mouth.

"Yea. I'm free. Great thing, ohm is busy today he can't pick me up."
Why?
Why did I did that? Maybe because i haven't gotten enough time with khaothung lately because of this whole ohm thing.

"That's great I'll confirm them then." I nodded my head bringing back my attention to the food thinking how will I avoid ohm. He thinks there's something better me and thung and here I was ditching him for khaothung.

...
"Okay!"
Huh? Okay?

"You don't have any problem I'm ditching you" i could have sounded more nice and polite.

"No..I guess. We aren't boyfriend or anything that I have any right to stop you" I mean he was right.

"We'll meet tomorrow then" I said waving my hands.
He waved back at me with a smile on his face.
Smile.
Did he really didn't care?

...
"So what are we going to do?" I asked mark as soon as I stood infront of them.

"Oh-hey I thought you'll go with ohm today"
ahhh why can't he just stay quiet for a moment.
I looked at khaothung as he looked at me confused.

i smiled awkwardly and said
"No. Actually ohm had some plans already. So i thought I'll join you guys"
Lie.
Why did I lie? I could have just said i thought I will spend time with my friends. But i decided to lie.
Why was i hiding something that wasn't so problematic.

"That's great then. Actually we thought of going for a movie. It's great that u are here. I mean neo and khaothung could never enjoy a romantic movie. And i can't even discuss it later with them or gossip about it. But u" he wrapped his hands in mine "i could talk about it with you. So khaothung thank u for calling him"
To which khaothung just smiled (like always)

Tbc.
