Please know that I rewrite this story for 3 times. I wrote a scene, deleted it, and write again, for three times in a row. I'm not really confident and satisfied with this one, but I'll share it anyway. I still hope you guys enjoy it 💖

Attending a music festival is one thing, but being surrounded by numerous billboards of your ex-almost who ghosted you is something else.

"I thought you weren't going?" Ohm asked his best friend, who showed up behind him out of nowhere.

Porchay only shrugged his shoulders, looking bored. "I have nothing to do at home." Squeezing closer beside his best friend as the crowd gets heavier and louder. "Also, P'Kim isn't coming, right?"

"Yep!" Ohm chirped. "He's not part of the performers."

"Pft! But his face is everywhere!" He annoyingly muttered. His eyes roamed around the area where Kimhan's face is plastered on each corner of the university's field.

"Well, he's the university model; of course his face will be everywhere." Ohm tapped his best friend's shoulder, an encouraging one. "Don't worry, it's confirmed he's not performing tonight."

Porchay sighed in relief, "Cool," as if a huge chunk of rock was lifted off of his chest, making it easier for him to breathe.

"You hate him that much, Chay?"

With deep creases on his forehead, Porchay scoffs at his best friend. "Yeah." He nodded. "I hate him that much," he added as he rolled his eyes when Ohm laughed at him.

"That's what you get for settling with a no-label relationship."

Porchay only rolled his eyes with what his best friend said; he couldn't rebut because what Ohm said was true. He settled for a no-label relationship with his senior.

Kim and Porchay met during Porchay's first week in uni. Kim was his senior buddy who would help him settle down and get familiar in uni.

As early as the first month of them knowing each other, Porchay has already confessed to liking Kim. Straight on he told the senior, "P'Kim, I like you."

Kim didn't take Porchay's confession seriously. He'll grow out of it soon—are the words he keeps repeating to himself whenever Porchay whispers to him how much he likes him.

Porchay, as confident as he is, would give letters, chocolates, and Kim's favorite coffee to the senior. He would wait outside Kim's building and plead with him for a tutoring session by the soccer field.

Porchay would pout at Kim when the elder wasn't giving him the attention and reaction he wanted. He would text Kim with Good morning, P'Kim. See you at uni—every morning and Good night, P'Kim. Have a sweet dream—at night before going to bed.

Porchay has made sure that Kim understands his feelings for him. "I'm serious with my feelings for you, P'Kim. I like you so much, and it wasn't really that hard to fall for you. You made it so easy for me to like you," he once said when Kim asked him if he still isn't tired of following him around even though their buddy system ended already.

In fact, after the buddy system ended, Porchay made sure that Kim would accept his feelings. He cooked packed lunches for Kim. He wrote a few songs for Kim. He wrote letters for Kim that he leaves inside Kim's bag whenever he has a chance to. He would confess and will repeatedly say how much he likes the senior every chance he gets, though Kim only shook his head at him.
