"And.... This one" Tao grabbed another gucci accessory, giving it to Kris which was already carrying a bunch of gucci stuffs.
"I thought we're here to buy school supplies?" Kris asked, looking at the bunch of gucci in his arms. Tao rolled his eyes before making his way to the counter, Kris tailing behind him.
"After this" Tao paid in the counter quickly, he didn't like the fact the they were being stared by the girls. They were literally about to snap their heads while looking at the two gorgeous men. And it made Tao uncomfortable. But what Tao didn't know is, Kris was secretly sending deadly daggers to the girls who were checking out Tao.
When they stepped out of the shop, Tao sighed in relief which Kris noticed. "What's wrong, young master?"
"Didn't you see? They were looking at as like we were some kind of food or something"
"Yeah. And i almost want to kill the girls who were checking you out" Kris muttered under his breath not knowing that Tao might hear him. "You what?" But good thing he didn't hear it. Kris just shook his head, dismissing the topic.

Tao was already done buying the things that he needed in school, he was now checking if he missed something while Kris was just looking through some books.
The younger walks up behind Kris, opening his mouth to say something but closed it again, he decided to not disturb Kris for a while since he really looked interested in the book that he was currently holding.
After a few minutes, Tao was getting bored so he decided to roam around in the store and look for something fun but instead, he bumped into someone which cause him to land his butt on to the cold floor. Tao grumble after feeling the pain in his butt while the guy immediately help him up.
"I'm so---" as soon as Tao saw the guy's face, he's expression suddenly changed. He diverted his gaze, avoiding any eye contact with the guy.
"Tao?" The guy spoke, slightly shock to see Tao. But Tao was more than shock to see the guy, he didn't expect this at all. Even though he didn't like this at all, he still showed a forced smile.
"A-ah, I'm sorry. I have to go" Tao quickly spoke and turned around, ready to leave as soon as possible but a hand grabbed his arm, making him stop from walking further.
The guy positioned itself in front of Tao while Tao lowered his head. "Tao, please, look at me" the guy was about to hold Tao's cheeks but Tao stepped backwards, head still hanging low.
"S-sorry, i r-really have to go" Tao's voice cracked at the end but he managed to walk away from the guy that has been his childhood friend and his first love.
Tao grabbed Kris on the way until they arrived at the parking lot. He sighed in relief and leaned on his car for a while. On the other hand, Kris was just looking at him, confused in what just happen a while ago.
"Are you okay, young master?" Kris said as he place a hand on Tao's shoulder but Tao quickly swatted it away.
"No. Just go back to the store and get the school supplies quickly, i want to go home already" Tao responded coldly, going inside the car while Kris immediately made his way back to the store.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tao was lying on his bed, staring at the ceiling and waiting for his best friend to arrived. He called his best friend a while ago and asked him to come over and it's been almost an hour now but his best friend hasn't arrived yet.
He rolled to the side of his, grabbing his phone and checking his notification and facebook. He also played a few games but none of it can get his boredom off. Eventually, He turned off his phone and place it beside him while letting out a sigh.
'What took him so long?'
As if on cue, the door opened, revealing a short young man scratching his nape while smiling apologetically.
Tao, who was lying on the bed and was about to die of boredom, stood up and didn't waste any time. "Suho hyung!!" He dashed to his hyung and hugged him tightly. Suho just chuckled at his dongsaeng's cuteness.
"What took you so long?" Tao said, looking at his hyung while pouting.
"Sorry. Your butler kinda blocked me on the way and asked me several questions. I guess you hadn't told him about me yet"
Tao huffed. "Aish, i forgot to tell him" Suho just smiled and ruffled his already messy hair.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" Suho said while raising a brow, eyeing Tao suspiciously. Tao turned silent but soon chose to spoke. "I met him earlier" Tao sighed, already tired of thinking of ways how to get him out of his mind.
Suho patted Tao's head, worried about his best friend. He had known Tao for about six years now and he knows how Tao can't handle his emotions very well. And he also knows about Tao's childhood friend. Tao had told him about his past when he gained enough trust.
"What did you do?"
"Of course, i ran away" Tao sat on his bed and stared at his hands. "I'm not yet ready to face him" he mumbled but it was loud enough for Suho to hear. He went to the younger one and hugged him in comfort, gently stroking his hair while the younger cried silently onto his shoulder.
