Only a few days had gone by since Pent had broken up with Gay Spaghetti Chef in the identity of Khonjin. The silence and mix of either awkward stares or angry glares that now surrounded the two of them were enough to get on Gino's nerves, not that that was saying much, when everything seemed to do that.
"Okay, not that I could give less of a crap, but what the fuck has been with you two, lately." He growled when Khonjin entered the pizza store ready to yell, only to be cut off when he took sight of Gay Spaghetti Chef.
"I don't know! Why don't you ask the boyfriend of mine who has been refusing to answer my calls or texts for the last week!" Khonjin responded.
"I wouldn't know either! You woulda be betta off askaing the ex-boyfriend of mine who spinelessly dumped me on our date for no explicable reason!"
Khonjin glared to Gay Spaghetti Chef, as Gay Spaghetti Chef did back to him. Both suddenly began shaking violently and quietly screeching, as if going to blow themselves up.
"No, NO, stop!" Gino yelled, headbutting the both of them to snap them out of their emotion driven states. "If your gonna act like this, at least don't do it in my fućkin' store!"
"But I came here to get me some of that pep-pep-"
"Shut up, Khonjin!" Gino yelled. "Can neither of you just tell me what happened? Cause we've got two completely different stories goin' on here!"
Neither Khonjin nor Gay Spaghetti Chef seemed willing to answer.
Gino sighed. "Y'know, maybe if you get this sorted out, Gay Spaghetti Chef could make you some pizza."
And as he had predicted, Khonji's eyes lit up in joy. "Okay, fine! We can discuss this." He agreed, sighing heavily. "Gay Spaghetti Chef and I organised a date together not too long ago, but last minute, I was told that it was cancelled. Then, after that, Gay Spaghetti Chef just began ignoring all my texts and calls! Like he was trying to purposely avoid me, or something."
"Of coursa I was tryin' to avoid you! You dumped me!" Gay Spaghetti Chef replied.
"When?"
"Last week!"
"What the hell are you going on about?"
Through their little exchange, Gino finally began to slowly catch on to what could've happened.
"Khonjin." He finally snapped, drawing the two other men's attention towards him. "Who exactly was it that informed you of the fact that your date with Gay Spaghetti Chef was cancelled?"
"Why, that fine Pent guy, of course." Khonjin answered.
"And you believed him?"
"You'd be lying if you said you wouldn't have."
Gino sighed. "I take it, then, that Pent was wearing some kind of Khonjin disguise?" He questioned Gay Spaghetti Chef.
"Not so much a disguise as it was just a blindfold..." He answered, frowning to Khonjin. "Sorry for buying into it so easily. And ignoring you, this past week."
Khonjin smiled and hugged Gay Spaghetti Chef. "I'm just happy we could work this out!"
"Speak for yourself." Gino muttered, although, he was somewhat happy now that he didn't have to deal with their bickering.
"I'lla go prepare your pizza now!" Gay Spaghetti Chef announced, leaving to head into his kitchen.
He returned a few minutes later with a plate of spaghetti that he had set out in front of Khonjin, immediately frowning once he had noticed his mistake. "This isn't a pizza..."
Khonjin smiled supportively and hung his arm around Gay Spaghetti Chef to bring him in close and kiss his cheek. "It's okay, actually. After everything that's been happening, I'm more than happy to be eating something that's authentic to my boyfriend."
