Badfriend: To Be With You

13.

Happy reading!!

Fluke clearly saw First's post. It became a hot topic on his social media wall too, even Gawin came all the way to his house, afraid that he would get his heart broken he said.
Indeed, after all First was someone he liked and right now Fluke was still thinking about him.
They say, forgetting is not as easy as falling in love.

"I'm going to the junior kit's first practice today, are you?"

"I shouldn't have to go, right?"

Gawin nodded his head as he put his jacket back on. Good thing, Fluke realised that his presence this time would only be considered a clown, pathetic.

"Want me to give you today's information?"

Fluke sighed then closed his eyes on the couch. He told Gawin to leave immediately, and return to his house after training.
Today, the two planned to study together but it would probably turn into a vent session.

"There are a lot of kids out there who like you, don't get too down on yourself, mate."

Fluke opened his eyes again after Gawin's departure. He looked back at his  phone and showed First's post, there First was online social media. Fluke could see First actively replying to some of his classmates' comments.
Fluke then liked the post, even congratulated it in the comments column.

First: Oh Phi, thank you. When will you be here?

Fluke smiled a little as he read First's reply.

"Should I just come?" He muttered.

With Aje still in a glum mood, Khaotung took him to the library by bus.
The two of them studied different things, Khaotung just found out that Aje is currently preparing for a language competition.
Seeing him looking lazy to study obviously made Khaotung a little inflamed, so he kept repeatedly telling Aje to just read a book if he didn't want to take notes.

"What's wrong with you exactly?"

Aje raised his head and looked at Khaotung who seemed to be focused on his book.

"I feel like you would have the same opinion as him if I told you," Aje replied.

"Who?"

"Marc."

Khaotung then nodded his head, if it was Marc then Aje's guess was right. Khaotung was more often on the same page with Marc than with First.

"What's your problem?"

Aje sighed again and told Khaotung that Marc advised him not to say anything to Khaotung, so Aje would use it.

"What the hell, you want me to be curious? Just dream."

Aje just chuckled then thought back to what Marc had said earlier after Pawin's departure.
He said, there are many things that don't need to be revealed for good.
According to Marc, Aje's passionately saying that what they were hiding was currently harming Khaotung was just an excuse.
An excuse that Aje doesn't realise that her opinion is just to fulfil her ego.
Everyone knew that Aje hated Pawin more than Khaotung.

"Hey, I'm not in the mood to study. Want to go to the training ground?"

Khaotung turned his head to Aje with a sardonic look, deserving of this boy's frequent reprimands from his mother. "I won't be surprised if you drop out of the top 10 later, let's go."

"What do you mean, I've never left the top 3 even once."

The two argued about rankings while tidying up their books. Then, they continued their journey from the library to school by motorbike taxi.
