"Maybe we should break up." Forth said to Beam.

"Pardon?" The latter can't believe what he just heard.

"Do I need to repeat myself, Beam? I said maybe we should break up."

"But why...?"

"You should go back to your old self. Go back to being a Casanova. Leave me. Or better yet, forget about me."

"H-huy, F-forth... why are you t-talking like that?" Beam's voice cracked.

"I need to go. I'll take my clothes and my stuff on your dorm."

"Hahaha, s-stop this j-joke Forth." He laughed but tears are beginning to stream down his face.

Forth looks at him with no expression in his face. His eyes are blank.

"Do I look like I like I'm kidding?"

Beam gasped letting out a hurtful sob.

He fell on his knees, crying with his mouth open. He can't believe everything he just heard.

His gazed was fixed on the shoes of his lover until it turn and walked away from him until he was out of his sight. Gone.

Beam's POV

"Dr. Beam!!!"

A kid run towards me and hugged my leg.

"Freen! How are you, little girl? Where's your mom by the way?" I asked.

"She's not coming today because she's busy taking care of my little brother."

"So... who's with you?"

"I'm with--- there he is! Dada, over here!"

I turned to the direction she is pointing at only to be surprised seeing HIM.

"Forth." I whispered.

I followed his movements. He smiled at Freen and carried her.

"Dada, this is Dr. Beam. Dr. Beam, this is my Dada Forth."

I gulped.

But then, I smiled and extended my hand.

"Nice to meet you, Forth. I'm Baramee Vongviphan but you can simply call me Beam."

"Nice to meet you, too. I'm Forth. Freen's 'Dada'." he smiled at Freen and pinched his cheeks.

I smiled sadly at this sight. They look so happy teasing each other and laughing out loud.

I was called out of my wits when P'Mew called me.

He round his arms around my waist and hugged me.

"I miss you, Beam." he joked.

"Really, P'Mew? We just talked yesterday and you say you miss me?" I chuckled.

"Don't be like that. And why are you not hugging me back?" he teased.

I laughed out loud and hugged him as tightly as I could.

Someone coughed and I break my hug from P'Mew.

I look at Forth and Freen awkwardly.

"Uh... P'Mew maybe we'll talk later. I just need to attend my patient."

"Sure, Beam. Just call me whenever you're done." he said and kissed me on the forehead.

When P'Mew was out of our sight I faced the two again.
