At Raf's mansion

Raf : "Everything went good, right?"

Nick : "Of course, everything will be good because I'm working on it, na." ( winked at him )

He said roaming around his room,

Nick: "Wow! This is so pretty... When did you buy this?" ( the chain luna gifted Raf )

Raf saw him and replied,

Raf : "Gift."

Nick: "Gift? Who gave it to you?"

Raf: "Luna."

Nick: "Wow, really? She gave you this? Whoa! Something is connecting between you two."

Raf shot Nick a death glare, warning him to back off.

Raf: "Nick! Know your limits."

Nick: "Aigoo! Just kidding" (he smiled innocently, trying to diffuse the tension)

Raf sighed and gave him a side-eye, but Nick just called out to him while sitting on Raf's bed

Nick : "Raf."

Raf responded with a "Hmm" while arranging his clothes in the wardrobe.

Nick's expression turned serious.

Nick : "I heard something wrong happened here when I was away."

Raf stopped arranging his clothes and turned to Nick with a grave face.

Raf : "You know, right? Don't dare talk about it."  ( Raf's eyes darkened, warning Nick to drop the subject )

Nick : "Raf, I know it's hurtful, but it's been over 10 years. I still haven't seen any happiness in your eyes, no smile on your face. Please, Raf, forget that."

Raf's eyes turned red with anger, and he growled

Raf : "Enough, Nick! Don't you dare talk one more single word about that. Enough!"

He stormed out of the room, his body radiating anger and pain.

Nick sighed and threw himself onto the bed, gazing up at the ceiling.

Nick: (to himself) Soon, I'll see your smile, Raf... (he sighed deeply, hoping for his friend's happiness)

Meanwhile, Raf walked into the hall and saw Luna entering the mansion. She spotted Raf and smiled warmly.

Raf: (gruffly) Our men picked you up, right?

Luna nodded, still smiling.

Raf: Hm...

His expression remained serious, but his eyes lingered on Luna's smile, a hint of softening in his gaze.

Nick: "Heyy, hi Luna!"

Luna: (smiling) "Hii..

Nick: "How was your day?"

Luna: (smiling) "Hmm, good"

Luna: "How was yours?"

Nick: "Very bored!...... Hey, Luna..."

Luna: "Mm?"

Nick: "You like Raf more than me, right?"

Luna's eyes widened in shock.,

Luna: "Wh... What... Why did you ask like that?"

Nick: "Then what? You gave him a gift but not to me... Since you know me before him."

Nick pretended to be offended, but Luna just smiled widely.

Luna: "Nick, can you wait here? I'll come soon."

Nick: "Why?"

Luna hurriedly went inside her room and returned with a box in her hands.

Luna: "It's for you."

Nick: "Aishh! I was just kidding!"

Luna: "No, really, I bought this for you. I thought of giving it to you when you came home, but I forgot."

Nick's face lit up as he opened the box, revealing a cool pair of sunglasses.

Nick: "Wow! For me?"

Luna: "Yes. When I first saw you, you were wearing sunglasses, and it looked so cool on you. So, when I saw this in the shop, I thought of getting it for you."

Nick's eyes softened, touched by Luna's thoughtful gesture.

Nick: "Aww, you're so sweet."

Luna smiled back, and Raf, who had been admiring Luna from afar, looked away, his expression unreadable.

Luna: "Okay, then I'll go."

Nick: "Okay, Luna."

As Luna left, Nick couldn't help but feel grateful for her kindness and thoughtfulness.

Nick : she is so sweet, isn't she ?

Raf didn't reply anything just looking on his laptop.. Nick sighed..

The Day Passed

Next day At College 

Luna was sitting in class, listening to the lecture, suddenly she noticed someone signaling her from the corridor.

She turned to see Harry waving his hands at her, trying to get her attention.

Luna looked at the teacher, who was lecturing with a stern expression, and then back at Harry, gesturing "what?" with her hands.

Harry ( whispered )  : "just come here" and motioned with his hands for her to come outside.

Luna shook her head quickly, trying to decline, but Harry's persistent gestures made her nervous.

Just then, the teacher noticed the commotion and called out to Luna,

Teacher : "Luna! What's happening there?"

Luna stood up, gulped, and asked,

Luna : "Mam... can... can I use the washroom?"

The teacher : "Leave! Go, but be quick!"

As Luna left the classroom, Harry grabbed her arm and pulled her aside, and handed her something.

Luna : Harry What's wrong with you, you spoiled my class-

Luna was confused for a second, but soon her face formed a wide smile as she realized it was her lost phone.

Luna: "Omg! How did you find this? The college department said they didn't find it. I thought I had to buy another one..." (tears formed in her eyes as she held the phone tightly) " Thanks harry.. This is The only thing I have from my dad "

Harry smiled and nodded,

Harry : "I've searched for you. Yesterday, I went home late because of this."

Luna's face showed shock,

Luna : "For this? You took time to find this?"

Harry nodded with a smile, and Luna's expression turned to gratitude.

Luna: "Aww! Thank you so much... You're so sweet..." (she said, giving him a side hug)

Harry went silent for a second, his world stopping. He felt his heart beating faster as he gazed into Luna's eyes, which were shining with appreciation.

Luna: "Thank you, Harry..."

Harry remained still, like a statue, his eyes locked on Luna's. Time seemed to stand still until the bell rang, breaking the spell.
