Khao- POV
View....
She was my first love, and I was completely smitten with her. I knew, or at least I thought I knew, that she felt the same way, but we were both afraid of jeopardizing our friendship by admitting our true feelings. Eventually, I decided to take a leap of faith and propose. I went to her house, heart pounding, only to find strangers.
I later learned that she and her family had moved to Pattaya. The news hit me hard. How could she leave without a word? The silence was deafening, and the pain was immense.
In the wake of that heartbreak, I vowed to protect myself from ever feeling that vulnerable again. I decided to close my heart, believing that love only leads to suffering.
After six years , there she was, standing before me—the girl, my love. A mix of emotions flooded through me: happiness, surprise, and a lingering sense of disappointment.
Finally, spoke, asking the question that had haunted me for years: "Why did she leave without saying goodbye?"
View POV
My father and his friends started a company, but it went bankrupt. His friends abandoned him, leaving him with no choice. He sold our house to pay off some of the debts, even though it wasn't enough.
We had to leave, too, and we ended up in Pattaya, where my father's younger brother helped us get back on our feet. Now, things have finally settled down.
"I'm sorry, Khao," I said.
"I'm sorry too," Khao replied.
"Why are you sorry?"
"I cursed you a lot because you left without saying a proper goodbye."
I chuckled, "It's okay, Khao, never mind. To be honest, I'm glad you still remember me."
"How could I forget? You're my first lov....Khao hold his mouth
I looked at Khao suspiciously. "What did you say...?"
Khao quickly changed the subject, "Ah, you still haven't told me why you came to Bangkok."
"Oh, right. You know my cousin, Sami, right? She lives here with her husband. She was a lecturer at Thammasat University, and I got accepted there, too. So, I'm here to study. What about you? You finished high school, right? Which university are you going to?"
"I don't know... But if you want, I could apply to the same university as you."
"You would?"
Now, Khao and I were looking at each other.

First _ohm
They were at a pastry shop.
"You have no idea how much I miss you, First," Ohm said.
"Me too, Ohm."
"So, what's going on between you and Khao? It seems like he likes you too."
"Likes... my foot. He's straight," First replied.
"Damn, really? But when we hugged, I could definitely tell Khao was annoyed."
"Stop getting my hopes up, Ohm. I think Khao likes View. I just want to forget him."
"Who's View?"
"The girl you saw at Khao's house earlier. She's a childhood friend of Khao, just like you and me. I think they liked each other back then... but never mind. Let's talk about you. Are you dating anyone?"
