"You are so pretty N'Kit" the MC compliment Krist for the hundreds times that night, even now after they finished the program
"Aw P'.. thank you" Krist wai-ing and smile
"If you believe that, i don't know which one more foolish. Him or you" Singto whispering while wai-ing too at the MC
"It's just a compliment P' .. don't fret about it"
"I'm not fretting about it, it's just you're not pretty. Never has. And i don't get it why people like to call you that and you yourself strive to make you look like that"
"Look like that? What exactly 'like that' P?"
"Pretty."
Krist smiles
"I know to you i will never be pretty P' .. so don't worry"

Singto watched Krist walk to their changing room and come out already in his casual clothes

"Krist, can i ask you something?" Singto cross his arms and stand against the wall.
Everyone has left the room

"Sure, P..what is it?"
"Why you want to be pretty? Is it your new image?"

Krist look at Singto for a moment, feigning his answer," since when you notice it?"
Singto too look at Krist for a moment
"2 years ago. Since then you always wanted to look pretty"
"Someone i like, like pretty things P' .. i want to look pretty for him"

Singto eyes got bigger," him? You like man?"
Krist took out his phone and checking it
"It just so happen he's a man P'.. are you home with P'Jane? Or?" Krist still look down on his phone

"When was it? Do i know him? It is recent?" Singto voice sounds so restraint even for himself

"2 years ago. Probably. Since 2 years ago. Now, are we done with this interogating or can i go now?" Krist pocketed his phone and look up

Up straight into Singto's eyes.

"Wait. Just wait. Are you homo now?"

Both of them winced at the word, homo.

"Now? I like him since 2 years ago. Can we not talk about it now? I'm tired." Krist pick up his bag from the table, heading out

"Just so you know, you're not pretty. Never has, never will."

again, Krist smiles

"I know P'... since 2 years ago i already know. Good night P'Sing khab"

The moment Krist close the door, Singto threw out a hairdryer. It hit the door

Both of them hear the loud thump
