- KRIST POV -
It has been a week since he and Singto didn't talk to each other due to his individual overwhelmed schedule and Singto looking hopelessly busy with his school related matters. The last LINE message he received was on last Sunday, talking about some random game stuffs late at night and ended without having proper good night text. The next messages that he sent to Singto day after that were left being read without responses. He sighed. Deep down in his heart, he sensed something is wrong with Singto but he immediately sweep out all the bad thought he had. Another issue that worrying him is that they will be having and award event together in 2 days. After almost an hour debating with himself, he decided to call Singto. He might find excuses such as to discuss about the event award if Singto ask. Two rings and the call is now connected and a hoarse 'hello' slipped within his lips due to his nervousness.

He throws his phone away, hissing to himself and drag his body to get a hot shower. He need to clear up his heavy mind and brush away the thought of Singto is boldly ignoring him. He managed to say only Hello and line got cut after Singto gave him im-busy-can-we-talk-later excuse.

Few hours later, his phone vibrate to a LINE notification coming from his none other than P'Singto.

-KRIST POV-

"So, are we in a good term now?" The older asked him while giving a fondly look to him without noticing he is actually fighting with himself.

"What are we? In what term are we, P'Sing?" He seem not very contented with Singto conclusion, that they are in a good term now. In his understanding, they are in a 'good friend for benefits' term.

"Kit, can you keep it your childishness to yourself at least? I'm having so much pressure right now. With you, with the surrounding, my workload, my thesis, P'Tha, and do I need to list down every single person and every single thing that bugged me and keep me accoupied in my 24 hours in a day? C'mon at least not you, please? I barely have my me time to do what I actually want to do," Singto answered while his finger massaging his temple, his head start to feel heavy. He lay down himself and slowly close his eyelid. He ought to nap a bit to ease his sudden headache. "And please lock the door when you leave,  I have an early class tomorrow to catch up."

"But P', you shouldn't make any decision before consulting me. We talking about both sides here. Are you the only one who matters the company?  We still have more fanmeeting schedule that need us to maintain our relationship, are we gonna loose our fanclub just because of your current work?" He shrieked to Singto. The older immediately sit up on his stomach, eyes pinning at his angry self.

"Hey, calm down Kit. Look, does it matter to you if we didn't get to show off? What matters is now, we both get to hang out with each other, Kit" Singto try to coax him but he heard only excuses Singto made that not look appealing at all. 

and..

He is hurt. So freaking badly hurt with Singto lack of enthuthiasm towards him but he refuse to buy in the idea that Singto is slowly farthering himself away from the relationship that they mutually built. Before he left, he give Singto a soft peck on the lips while mutters "Good night, P" leaving the older in a little surprised. He then left without forgetting to lock the door. 'Your safety still comes first.'
