Personal rant: What the heck what this ending with the Night King!!!!! I am done with Game of Thrones, I'll stick to the books!

Happy reading.

General Pov.

It has been a week since the mountain hick and things were going back slowly to their previous state.

Beam and Forth were close as ever and those weird undetermined grey areas felt like a very bad dream.

So it came to them as an unpleasant surprise to see Sally waiting for Forth at their school gate.

Beam glanced at his best friend worriedly but the latter's face could have been made of steel seeing how cold it was.

"Can we talk?" She asked.

Forth nodded.

"Privately." She added when Beam, Park and Lam were still staring at her.

"Don't push it. If you want to talk, do it fast."

"I do love you." She whispered almost inaudible.

"Too bad because I don't love you. I don't even think I ever did. I might have convinced myself I was because it was the first time anyone confessed to me. But what hurts the most is in conclusion, you stole that love letter and confessed to me just so can get back at Pha and Pring."

"Wait, Forth..." She tried to utter but his glare stop her and for this moment, Beam feared for her safety.

In all their common lives, he had never seen his best friend like this.

"We are done. I don't ever want to see your lying face ever again or I won't hesitate to beat you up. I don't care if you are a girl. You don't even deserve to be called a girl." Forth walked to his bike followed by Lam and Park. Only Beam was standing in front of her, watching her cried pitifully.
And despite all the wrong things she has done and said, Beam couldn't help to take a step towards her to console her.
A tight grip on his arm stopped him to take a step any closer.

Forth was looking at him, a troubled expression on his face.

"But..."

"Let's go home, Beam." After one last glance towards Sally, he followed his best friend.

*                                          *                                        *                                    *                                 *                                   *

When Dylan went home, he noticed with right away the extra pair of shoes on the shoe rack.

'I wonder if Beam is going to stay for dinner, tonight.' He thought distractedly, removing his shoes.

"Daddy?"

Dylan turned to see Yim's head sticking out of the kitchen.

"How is Daddy's princess?"

"I want to bake a cake for P'Forth to cheer him but I can't find the whisk." Said, princess explained with a worried expression on her face.

Her father raised an eyebrow when he heard her reason.
