Tan's Secret

Chapter 5

Tan Pov

Next few days went flew in no time, I was busy with my assignment so don't find much time to think about other things. 

After I finished my assignment, I went to canteen where I saw Phum and Peem so I went to them and tease them. I know peem being a sweet talker, People can easily attract toward them. And Phum, he may be look arrogant but he is also good person.

We talked for a while when Fang called phum and asked him for his help. I somehow convinced him to let me go and help Fang

As I reached to his faculty, I saw Fang working on his project, He looked so immense in it that he even didn't acknowledge my presence.

"Thank you" Fang say as he picked glue from my hand, without even looking at me. "Are you free? Can you help me with something?" He continue thinking I am Phum.

"I am." I replied, which finally grab his attention.

"What brings you here?" He asked confused.

"Phum isn't free, so I came. What do you want me to help you with?" I ask sincerely.

"Nothing" He denied and continue his work. 

"Come on, Let me help na. I'm free. I have nothing to do" I insisted. I really want to spend some time with him.

"Fine, Help me cut it then." Fang said, finally letting me help him.

"Sure. How do I do it?" I asked, he guided me how to do it and I went on work.

"I never thought we could end up like this." I said 

"True, I didn't expect we would become friends." He replied continuing his work.

"Who knows? We can probably become more than just friends." I said slowly but loud enough so he can hear me.

"Pardon?" he asked immediately.

"Nothing" I replied. I want to say it again, but I know may be I would push Fang away so I decided to take baby steps only.

"Are you done?" He asked me to which I nodded.

"I can make time for you all day long." I replied when he asked me I am free or not.

He suggested me with other work and I do it with gratitude but mischief come into my mind

"Ouch!, Fang, I got glue on my finger." I said in normal tone looking at my finger.

"Let me see." He replied, Worry can be heard from his voice.

"Here, Can I hit on you?" I said showing him sign 🫰

"What are you playing at? I need to finish this and submit it quickly" He scolded me and told me to do work, but I didn't miss the smile come into his face. I feel happy knowing I am reason for his smile.

After we finished his work, Fang asked me to wait for him and he went somewhere, I was thinking about my day, how after so many days I feel happy.

I was looking at Fang's faculty building when Fang approached me with snacks

"Thanks for your help." He said handling me drink.

"Did you already turn it in?" I asked taking drink.

We talked for a while before I ensured him that whenever he need help he can call me freely.

Next Day 

I was working on my project when Phum approached me and gave me food that Fang sent for me, I was really happy. And When I am happy it means celebration.

I know, I know it's not a reason for celebration, but we can celebrate for anything, like for Peem getting "A" in his art, Pun submitting his assignment on time, Chain doing practical successfully, even Q getting praise. We can celebrate anything, We just need reason to spend time together and celebrate. 

From our school time we tend to share our small achievement with each other, Initially we do it with chocolate or some snacks now we do it with drinks and dinner. Nothing change between us in these year. But I had a fear, What happened when other people join us, What happened when we grow and have our own partner, Will our friendship remain same. Will our better half can able to join group. 

Everyone of us being in relationship now and then, but we never include anyone in this group. This is our oath that we will only let anyone in this group when we are sure the person won't break our group, till now no one in our surrounding pass the criteria except toey and Matt of course. They are sweet and all of us adore them se we let them in our group, and have celebration with us time to time.

When I reached at Peem's home, there I met Toey. Toey is most spoiled kid of our group, He can get whatever he want from us just by showing his puppy eyes and cute smile. Although Pun is similar to him but we can resist him sometime but with toey its impossible.

I let them know about my crush to fang but didn't share much information. I believe in "Keep it secret until in permanent." So I will tell them once we actually start dating. 

None of them doesn't pay much attention to my confession and they are used to it. I won't deny the fact that I have a reputation of playboy from my high school.  So it is much hard for people to believe I can actually fall in love for someone so deep. But with Khaofang its different, I just don't have a crush on him, I am totally whipped for him. 

I didn't share my snacks with anyone except toey, We drink till we were wasted and then we slept at Peem's house only.

Next Day 

When I went to my university I met Fang in middle, I thanked him for snacks.

"Tan, Are you free this weekend? We can go for drinks if you like?" Fang asked me, I can't even share my happiness in word. Fang wants to have drink with me. I was about say yes but suddenly something hit and my face drop.

"Khon tode na Fang, This weekend I already have plans... Actually I was going to my hometown... Would you like to join? My friends are also going with me." I apologies to him, If it was something else I would have drop my plan to spend time with fang. But it's for My grand-ma and I already promised her so I need to go.

"Are you all from same hometown?" Fang asked confused. 

"Mishae! We all are from different places, but we are like family to each other. So we usually spend holidays at each other's home town" I replied. To which Fang nodded in understanding.

"Will you join us?" I asked again.

"Mishae! You go and enjoy with your family we will meet after holiday." Fang replied. I really want him to join me, I want him to meet my grandma and know more about me. But i don't want to push my luck, I don't want to loose a bit of comfortability we have.

"Ok Bye then. See you soon." I said

"Bye bye" He replied. I wish some day I can call him to my house and let him meet my grand-ma. But that day is still far.
