The next morning...

"Is Phi Satang still sleeping?" Chai asks Winny.

"Yes, let him sleep. You get ready for school; I'll prepare breakfast," Winny replies.

"Brother, can I ask you something?"

Go ahead, ask.

Are you both in a relationship?

Winny looks slightly confused towards Chai and then shakes his head gently before saying, "No, there's nothing like that. He just works at my café."

"Now you should get ready for school and focus all your attention on studying so that next year you can get into a good university," Winny quickly changes the topic.

A little while later, as Chai is about to leave for school, Winny notices a hint of sadness on his face and asks, "Are you upset that I let Satang stay here last night?"

Upon hearing this, Chai immediately changes his expression and says, "No, not at all."

"If anything bothers you, just let me know," Winny reassures chai.

After Chai leaves, Winny goes to his room to wake up Satang. Seeing Satang, Chai's question lingers in Winny's mind, and he thinks to himself, "We're not in a relationship, but what are we? This isn't like me. Why am I doing all this? I should stop now; this kind of relationship isn't right."

Upon seeing Satang peacefully asleep, Winny hesitates to wake him but eventually does so gently due to the lateness. When Satang opens his eyes and sees Winny, a faint smile appears on his face as he says, "Good morning." Winny is unable to take his eyes off Satang at that moment. Seeing Winny's gaze, Satang approaches him slightly and asks, "Is there something on my face?" Winny quickly turns his face away and says, "It's been quite late. Breakfast is ready; freshen up and come have breakfast."

Winny quickly left the room in a rush.

A while later, when Satang comes out for breakfast and suggests having it together, Winny declines, saying he's not hungry right now. Satang doesn't insist and starts to leave after having his breakfast. He notices Winny's distant behaviour but still smiles and mentions meeting at the café in the evening. Winny simply nods without making eye contact, visibly disappointing Satang, who then quietly departs.

Winny sighs and says to himself, "What the hell am I doing right now?"

"Okay, the only person who can help me right now is Aran. Yes, I need to talk to Aran."
