Perfect Love (TayNew)

21. Determined

*Tay POV*

"Oab??" I said glaring at him.

"I was looking for you but I didn't actually think you were playing a silly game here." Oab said snickering.

"And you can't even win this stupid game. So weak." Oab continued.

"Shut up." I said staring angrily.

"Ohh, it looks like Tay is angry. So scared." Oab said acting scared.

"Mind your own business." I said with a frown.

"I am actually minding my own but you see I am feeling so sorry for you playing this kind of game." Oab said snickering and laughing for a while. He also made some other comments after that and I was trying to hold back my anger.

"Enough..." New said suddenly.

"I don't really know what happened between you both but don't you think you have said enough?" New said.

"Who are you?" Oab asked with a frown.

"His friend." New said.

"Don't you think you don't have any right to say anything when you don't even know me." Oab said.

"You are just his friend." Oab continued.

"Yeah... I am just his friend so don't you think I have a right to stand up for him?" New said smiling.

"You..." Oab said with a frown.

"Oab, we have to go." Another person said who came with Oab and listened to our whole conversation.

"Okay... I don't have any time to waste here and it seems you need to concentrate to win this stupid game so we will leave now." Oab said snickering to me and the person who came with Oab smiled looking at New and then they both left the place.

I was so annoyed by Oab's words that I was gripping the ring very tightly in my hands.

*New POV*

After they both left, Tay was very angry.

"Tay..." I called out to him slowly and he loosened the grip on the ring.

"New, wait for a bit. I will get that one." Tay said seriously and started throwing the ring on the hoodie.

I wanted to say things like "it's okay" or "you don't have to win that" just because that person said those things but I couldn't utter even a single word after seeing him determined and instead felt that he can win it so, I cheered him on saying that he can do it. After a few minutes, Tay really did win the gift and he gave it to me.

"Good job on winning it." I said smiling.

"Yeah, thanks for standing up for me." Tay said smiling a little since his mood from before became a bit better.

"Thanks for the gift." I said smiling.

"Let's go back." Tay said and we went back to our stall.

"You okay, Peng?" Off asked staring at Tay's expression on his face.

"Fine. Why are you asking stupid questions? Get back to work." Tay said since everyone was staring at him.

"Who's Oab?" I asked Gun.

"You met him today, right?" Gun asked me.

"Yeah... Are they like enemies or something?" I said.

"More than enemies and they fight every time. Oab is from another famous university and he is rich too like us." Gun said.

"Every time he visits our cultural fest and throws words at Tay. Tay used to be very angry and they both used to even throw punches at each other and make a scene every time. I wonder why that didn't happen this time." Gun continued.
