A week passed and it was now time to go back to the capital city for the beginning of the semester. Type actually opposed that decision, saying that since the break up seemed very traumatic for Rain, it was a good idea to postpone his return to the city, however Rain argued that it was his way to move on, he wanted to be busy with homework and study, so that the memory of that disappointing relationship could finally go away. Type eventually accepted and said good bye to his son, this time with a much lighter heart, since he didn't have to pretend to despise him anymore.

"Hi Sky... oh, you came on your own? I thought Prapai usually drove you around" Rain asked as he met Sky at the bus stop at the entrance of the faculty. Sky was visibly uncomfortable, his relationship with Prapai couldn't go any better, but he thought that a topic like his boyfriend was supposed to be avoided given Rain's recent situation.

"Y.. yeah, you're right. But he was busy this morning" Sky responded.

"Busy? Didn't he always find time for you? But if you're uncomfortable to tell me about your problems, remember that I'm your friend and I'm willing to help" Rain added a bright smile at the end of the sentence. Sky couldn't lie whenever Rain smiled like that.

"He wanted to come... but since his cousin is... having some problems lately and his uncle asked him to go for a visit, I told him I could come here on my own. To be honest, I thought that you wouldn't have appreciated seeing someone from that family right after your return" Sky explained.

"Cousin? Which cousin?"

Sky hesitated for a while before pronouncing Payu's name. He thought that maybe Rain hoped he was going to talk about someone else, who knew how many cousins Prapai could have from some other annoying uncle in that family.

"What problems?" Rain asked. Sky became even more nervous, he looked around and found Ple, so no matter how much Rain couldn't stand her, Sky preferred to get her attention just to get out of a way worse situation.

"Hi Ple!" Sky shouted and waved. Ple did the same and quickly join them, then she turned to Rain and grabbed his hand.

"Rain, you can't believe how grateful I am to you and Payu. I can't even imagine the strength needed to let your boyfriend help an ex of his. I will never thank you enough" Ple said all excited.

"What do you mean?" Rain asked perplexed and a little irritated by Ple's sudden affection.

"I thought Payu told you already. That evening after we met in the café, he asked for Mark's phone number. Apparently he managed to convince him to intervene and it worked wonderfully. Really, if you need anything, don't hesitated to call me, I'll do my best" Ple explained, then she left as rapidly as she arrived, since she was getting late for her lectures.

"Wait... so he didn't call Som to help him?" Rain thought out loud.

"Exactly" Sky replied.

"And why are you so sure? Maybe there is something more you would like to tell me, right Sky?" Rain added glaring at him.
