Forgive the mistakes and enjoy reading ❤️

----

The rest of the dinner, Phana and Ming, both had so much to talk about..yet they chose to keep it for some other time...

Phana felt his heart wrenching.. he wanted to stop Ming , but he understood he had to let go of this feelings... He was sure that Ming already was getting over with his infatuation.

Phana felt undeniably hurt but he had nothing to do with it..

***

The way back from their dinner was calm and silent as well.. Ming was looking out of the window at his side, where as Phana carefully drove while looking at his front.. but both of them continuously stole glances at each other.

And before they even realized, they reached Phana's house. Ming silently unbuckled his seat belt and was about to open the door at his side,when Phana grabbed his wrist..

Ming sat in his seat, frozen.. he knew Phana was hurt with his decision of leaving abruptly, but it was the best thing he could ever thought of.. he was doing it for themselves only..

" Ming... I'll miss you.." Phana's soft voice finally managed to break him. He sobbed hard..

Phana clutched Ming without any delay.. they both were savouring the warmth.. Ming wanted the moment to freeze and never let go of that embrace.. but he knew it would never gonna happen.. "I'll miss you more.." he muttered , still embracing Phana tightly.

It was really peaceful.. and after some more, they both let go of the embrace and looked each other's eyes.. they both smiled thinly.. " you'll be a good boy from now on... okay? Don't do anything like this ever again... don't decide anything in hurry... and above all.. please don't make it hard for Ryan.." Phana chuckled at his own words.. where Ming only nodded his head , smiling a little..

They got off the car and headed towards the house.. and when they both were about to enter their respective rooms, Ming finally gathered all the courage after the long battle in his head and asked, " Uhm.. Phana.. can you see me off at the airport tomorrow?" He squeezed his eyes shut and prayed hard not to get any negative remark from Phana, which worked as well..

Because Phana instantly accepted to see him off the next day..

***

*1 month later *

Its been one month since Ming came back to New York and anybody would mistake him for someone who's definitely not Ming..

Gone was the playful nature and teasing attitude.. Ming was suddenly turned into a serious guy who can devote himself in work. The way he was pursuing his internship, that led him to get a permanent post in the company.. and he was offered to join them after the completion of his post grad degree. Ming accepted the offer as well..

He was very happy with his own progress.

But the loneliness he felt without Phana was unsurpassable for him..

And that was one of the reasons, why he started to work like a robot.. he would either work on his internship project or study hard to pass every single day..

If Ming was becoming a robot while working hard, Phana was most certainly going crazy..

After Ming went back to USA, he immediately understood his feelings for that boy..

He felt hollow without Ming's childishness .

He missed him terribly.. but he would never let Ming to know about all these..he would wait till late at night waiting for Ming's calls.. and because of the difference in the timezones he would keep himself awake to call Ming as well..

But he knew Ming started to change now... for a better... and that better life didn't contain him in it.

Ming stopped showing any affection towards him now... even during the calls he would only talk about work..

It pained Phana but he was well aware of these things from the very beginning and that was the only reason he didn't accept Ming's feelings for him...

Its a sad thing that just like Forth, he too started loving someone else.. he too fell for him..

"But Can Love Happen Twice? Like really??!! Or is it just a feelings of liking...??" Phana asked himself.... 

(A/N: uhm has anyone read the book named " Can Love Happen Twice" by Ravinder Singh?)
