THANK YOU! 🙏🏽💙

Next day.
Win decided to go home to his family
He was not going waste this day, staying in his room and being sad about Bright

It was almost noon when arrived at their house.
Their house was unusually quiet
Win remained standing in the hallway, putting his phone out to send a message to their group chat

Sibs 🤘

I'm home. Where you guys at?

Dunk 🐣
Oh, I'm not home, phi! ☹️ I'm with Joong.

Should I come home now?

Hey, no, enjoy this day with Joong.
I'll still be here when you got home

Dunk 🐣
You said that, phi! See you later! ☺️

Gemini 🍎
P'Win, I missed you!! 🥺 Mom and dad brought me with them, we're now in a golf park
with their business friends. 😩

Phu got away 😒 He got a date with P'Pond.

Win proceeded to their living room and sit on the sofa
He chuckled reading Gemini's reply

I'll wait for you. Enjoy, lil' bro. :)

Gemini 🍎
Yaaay! 🥰 See you, phi! 🥰

Yes, Gemini is that sweet. He's the sweetest among all of them.

Dew
I'm home, P'Win. Where are you?

I'm in the living room.

Dew
P'Tay's home too. He must be still sleeping.

I'll go to you now.

And yes, Dew is the most nonchalant sibling.

Win put his phone back inside his pocket.
"You should've told mom that you'd go home, phi. They would've stayed home and not go to that golf park with dad." Dew said while walking down stairs
Win uttered, "It's fine." then he added, "We can just have a family dinner tonight."
"So, what are we gonna do?" Dew asked, sitting on the sofa beside him
"It's already lunch. Should we eat mookata in the outdoor restaurant just right down the street?" Win suggested
(AN: 'Mookata' is a Thai barbecue steamboat which literally means 'pork' and 'skillet' in Thai.)
Dew nodded, "Sounds good, phi. It's been a while since the last time we ate there."
Win said, "Then let's go. Let's wake up P'Tay first."

Win knocked on the door of Tay's bedroom
"P'Tay, are you awake already?" Win asked, not getting any answer from Tay
"We're coming in." Win announced, opening the door
Tay was indeed still sleeping with an eye mask on
Win whispered to Dew, "You go to the other side."
Dew went to the other side
Win held a pillow and gestured Dew to do the same then they hit Tay with the pillows
"Ow!" Tay reacted, sitting up and quickly removed his eye mask
Win and Dew laughed
"What? Is it Monday already?" Tay asked, making the two laugh again
Dew said, "It's still Sunday, phi."
Win crossed his arms, "And it's lunchtime already. So, kindly get your ass up now. We'll eat mookata."
"Just the three of us?" Tay asked, leaving his bed
"Well, yup. Dunk and Phu got a date. Mom and dad brought Gemini with them to a golf park." Win's answer
Tay chuckled, "Poor kid."
They all know what Gemini is feeling right now, they've all been there

*Joong and Dunk*

Dunk asked his boyfriend, "What? They fought?"
They were walking in the park while eating ice cream
Joong chuckled, "Yes, babe. I'm telling you, P'Bright is like a walking ticking bomb. If you approached him in a wrong way, he'd explode on you."
"He's even more scary, babe." Joong continued, shaking his head
Dunk mumbled, "That explains why P'Win suddenly went home."
He added, "Usually, he would tell us beforehand."
Dunk continued, "And he seems fine."
"I'm sure they'll be okay at the end of this day." Joong said, holding Dunk's hand
"P'Joong." a group of women approached them
One girl asked, "Excuse us, but can we take a picture with you?"
Joong looked at Dunk
Dunk volunteered, "I'll take the picture."
"Thank you, phi."the girl said when Dunk handed her back her phone
"Thank you, P'Joong." they said before leaving
"Sorry about that, baby." Joong pulled Dunk closer and held his hand again
Dunk rolled his eyes and shook his head, "No need to say sorry. That's just normal."
"You got a very good looking model of a boyfriend, you should start getting used to it now." Joong teased him,
hugging him
"Hey, we're outside!" Dunk hissed at Joong, trying to push him away
"They can stare all they want, the hell I care." Joong muttered, even putting his chin on Dunk's shoulder
Dunk just smiled

*Pond and Phuwin*

"P'Pond!" Phuwin hissed at Pond for the nth time now
They were in a library restaurant, Phuwin was trying to study because he has exams tomorrow, bringing his boyfriend with him might just be a bad idea
Pond said, "We're literally in a restaurant, babe, but you're not eating."
"Fine, fine." Phuwin put his book down for a while and took a spoonful of his food
"Hey, why don't you rest from studying for now? You've studied enough, I'm sure of that." Pond closed the book when Phuwin was about to open it again
Phuwin said, "I have two exams on my major subjects tomorrow."
He added, "I can't fail them."
Pond immediately said, "And you won't." then he sighed and held Phuwin's hands
"Don't pressure yourself too much. You're donna do really well. I believe in you." Pond gave him an assuring smile
"You think so?" Phuwin asked, anxiously
"Yes, babe. So, please, give your mind a break." Pond squeezed Phuwin's hands
Pond rolled his eyes, "And please, you're literally so smart."
Phuwin rolled his eyes as well and slightly pushed his boyfriend
Pond chuckled, "Come on, let's eat."

On the other side ...

Nani asked his friend Bright, "And what did you do next?"
Bright asked him as well, "How am I supposed to know?"
"Dude, I am blocked since last night." Bright ranted on his friend Nani
They were in a chill bar
Nani shook his head in amusement and asked, "Did you try to go to him today?"
Bright shook his head, "Hmm, no."
He added, "I'm afraid, it'll just make things more worse."
Bright continued, "I know Win on times like this, either he'd want to be alone or to be with his family."
"When you guys argue, how many days does it usually last?" Nani asked then took a sip of his drink
"If we argued over just a little thing, we could fix it overnight but if it's like last night, I don't know. It depends." Bright let out a heavy deep breath, finishing his drink and asked for another glass on the waiter
Nani asked, "What are you planning to do next?"
"I'll go to his office tomorrow and hopefully, he'll talk to me." Bright's answer
Nani patted his shoulder, "Good luck then, bro."
