Since Always

3rd Person's POV

Like any other senior year students, Phana was busy preparing for bar exam and enrollment test for university. Days went by like a blink of an eye. He soon forgot about that incident.

As predicted, Phana succesfully enrolled Medical Faculty. Beam and Kit joined him too. They seemed like zero fuck given upon their studies, nevertheless they were lucky enough they could follow their Daddy Phana to the most prestigious university in the country, all the more so, Medical Faculty.

They were now on their graduation day. The juniors were giving the seniors flowers, presents, chocolates, letters, and many more. Without fail, Phana received more than enough to fill up his car's trunk.

He was busy putting the gifts from his juniors and fellow seniors in the car when he felt someone tapped his back. He then turned his head only to meet a cute petite guy with his friend, none other than... that guy.

What the hell is he doing here?

"P' Pha are you alright?" The cute guy asked him after seeing Phana frozen for a minute. Phana mentally slapped himself, get yourself together, Pha!

"W-what's the matter, N'? Phana could not helped but stuttered. He mentally face-palmed because he was not having his usual demeanor. He was known as the cool and quiet guy, not this nervous and shy guy.

"I want to give you this, P'.."  the cute guy gave him a box of what seemed like chocolate, flowers, and letter.

"I- I have always liked you, P'!" the cute guy suddenly confessed to Phana. Phana blushed. His face was baked upto his ears. He was really shy. No, not because of the sudden confession, but because of that guy's eyes whose kept staring deep into his soul. With those sharp eyes.

Phana got tongue-tied, did not know what to respond, then suddenly the cute guy in front of him tapped his arm, waking Phana from his daze. "P', did you hear me?" The cute guy asked.

"O- Oh, I- I... thank you.." Phana could not respond with longer sentence. He was still trying to collect his cool.

"B-but I don't s-swing this way, uh, so.." Like he always did, Phana declined every confession he got. He never gave false hope to anyone.

"Don't be sorry or feel bad, P'! I just wanted to tell you on your last day in high school. Good luck for your next endeavour, P'," the cute guy flashed his smile. Phana could only mutter thank you to him. "I will get going, P'! Take care!"

But before they were gone, Phana suddenly asked while stuttering, "W-what's your name, N'?"

"It's Wayo, call me Yo," he again flashed his smile.

Phana stole a glance to Yo's friend. He wanted to know his name too. "A-and, you? What's yours?"

"It's Ming, P', Mingkwan." Ming only smirked but to Phana, it electrified his whole body.

Phana nodded and looked down only to pressed his lips from smiling.

"We're going P!" Yo finally walked away.

Phana was ready to go too, but suddenly a hand held his hand, restrained him from going. "Not so fast, P," it was Ming speaking.

"Huh?" Phana froze and stood still, could not get what's happening.

"Are you alright?" Ming asked. Phana was still, not answering. "Hey, P'?"

"Y-yeah?" That was the only word Phana could gather.

"Your face. Is it okay?" Then it hit Phana. Ming was asking about that incident.

Phana jerked his hand away from Ming's grip. "Of course! It was not that bad!"

Ming snickered, "Really? Your face was sooo fucking red back then, like you look right now."

Fuck. What's the matter with this junior??? Why can't he leave me alone? Pha mentally cursed Ming.

"Is it because of Yo's confession?" Ming's laugh finally halted. Replaced it with his serious face.

Phana blushed. He was agaped. Shit, why are you blushing, Phana?!

"N-not your business," Phana rebuked.

Ming stepped closer to where Phana is standing. Before Phana could step back, Ming held his hand, once again.

Ming's face was on two inches away from Phana. Phana was tall guy with almost 190cm height. But, Ming was as tall as him, so Ming was not intimidated by Phana's figure.

Ming slightly leaned down, only made Phana flustered even more. "W-what," then Ming finally stepped back, while smiling to Phana.

Phana's heart thumped loudly, he was afraid Ming could hear it.

"See you when I see you, P'," Ming walked backwards, still with his dazzling smile glued to his face.

When Ming was finally out of sight, that's when Phana could start to breathe. He unconciously stopped breathing when Ming flashed that fucking smile of his.

Phana then looked to what was Ming doing. There was a smiley sticker stuck on his uniform, right on his chest. It was followed with Do not get sick, take care of yourself, P'!

This sent Phana to wobble. He didn't know why he acted like not himself whenever Ming came to his peripheral.

At the same time, his body felt warm while thinking of what just happened to him. He formed a small smile.

It's Mingkwan.
