"YOU DID WHAT?!"

Dew can't believe he's hearing bullshits first thing first in the morning over the phone.

"I'm coming over. I need to smack you just once. Give me this satisfaction, you're clearly needing some. How can you be so fucking stupid?!"

Dunk would want to say something but Dew speaks again.

"Scratch that! I'm going to his place and give him a big fucking smack in the face. Might also kick his balls."

"Shut the fuck up! You're not going anywhere."

Dunk paced back and forth, carefully cause his back is killing him. He has a vague memory of how he got home but he did despite the struggle.

"It's not like I didn't want it." It was a weak response.

"He's a huge fucktard and you're being stupid for believing any bullshit he's giving you."

"Can you calm down?" Dunk sat on his bed and fall on his back. He bounced a little, his gaze then was fixed on the ceiling. His heart feeling heavy. "I didn't even regret any of it. I thought I would but I honestly don't feel any regret."

"Do you hear yourself, Natachai? He took your- the you know! and ghosted you after giving you the bullshit that he likes you. Do you not pity yourself, or atleast be a bit, I don't know, pissed!?" Dunk can imagine him comically throwing his hands in the air.

"You won't understand." Dunk whines.

"Then why are you calling me then?"

Dunk was silent for a second. He didn't regret anything but he's still overwhelmed, he needs an outlet. He just lost the thing which he couldn't take back. He reminds himself that it's not a big deal that everyone goes through the same. But he's also hopeless romantic. He was left sore, hurt and alone.

Fuck. That sounded pathetic. He cursed internally.

He can't even tell Pond and Phuwin cause they're easily not in the list of who he could call and he only has them.

"You know I can't tell Pond or Phuwin."

Dunk can hear Dew roll his eyes too.

"You're so pathetic." Dew always says his thoughts unfiltered.

Dunk can feel Dew's frustration through the phone and while he may be a bit annoying, he's glad he has one person he can talk to and genuinely cares for him despite them only being friends for a few days.

"Should I come over?" Dunk almost smile at the soft tone Dew is using.

"No." His voice is a little rough compare to his normal voice and Dew also noticed. "You can't come. Pond and Phuwin will be here soon and they'll kill you if they find you here. Or they kill me. Or both, honestly."

"You're not allowed to invite anyone in your place?" If Dunk can hear him roll his eyes, he could also basically hear him raise one eyebrow.

"Don't say it like that." Dunk groaned cause he sounded defensive. "They'd allow if they know you."

"How many people have you invited over? Just curious."

"None. I don't have many friends. I wasn't the friendliest in school. Can you stop asking questions? It's totally normal to have protective friends."

Dunk feels more heavy, Dew makes him think of the times his friends would warn him about different possible outcomes of inviting friends over. He believed them, although he sees them inviting different people to their own units. He thinks it's not fair but he couldn't argue. Phuwin is really smart, he knows what he's doing, Pond will say he can protect himself. Meanwhile, he wasn't the smartest and can't fight, even he's literally a giant, he's clumsy af.
