"This is going to be one of the biggest event in the country! Everyone is cheering for GunSingto tandem. They look good together too." That's what the announcer in the radio said. GunSingto followers are shipping them.

A handsome, fair-skinned guy was busy sitting in the car waiting for seemingly waiting for someone.

It is Krist Perawat. He seems to be in deep thought.

"I think Singto likes Gun for real. Even though their pair up is just for a promotion of a series they are having. It seemed that Singto is into Gun. I don't know. I mean, I'm practically his best friend but he doesn't really tell me what he feels but.. I can see it sometimes, whenever they are hanging out together in my place. I see Gun hugging Singto even without the cameras. Singto hates being touched by anyone but he is letting Gun do it to him so..

Well, I can't blame him. Gun is both cute and handsome and popular too. He matches Singto's popularity. Singto is tall, dark, and handsome as he claims when we tease each other. But for me, he is way better. He's a hottie, as his fans describes him. I agree. Heh", Krist thought to himself.

"Nong Kit, are you still there?", he heard Singto speaking from the other end of the line.

"Yes, P", he responded.

P/Phi means older brother, it is usually used to address an elder or a form of respect for a senior. Nong is used to address someone younger or a junior. Singto is one year older than Krist so it's the norm.

"Hmm.. Then see you later at the shoot. Don't be late, ok?", he continued. He's referring to their photoshoot for a brand Krist, Gun, and Singto are endorsing.

He works as a freelance model while pursuing his singing career. Singto entered show business in his early teens while he influenced Krist to try out modelling after. Singto said Krist got 'the looks'. Krist isn't really confident about it but there's no harm in trying since he doesn't know what he wants to do yet in his life anyway. Krist took up Visual Communication in college same as Singto.  But Singto graduated a year ahead of him. Krist just graduated earlier this year.

"Yeah, yeah. When have I been late?", he responded.

"Just saying. This P is just concerned about my heartthrob, Nong", Singto replied in a teasing voice.

"Heartthrob, my ass!", he answered, suppressing a smile while shaking his head.

"Hey, language. I'm your P", he admonished. Krist just bit his lip while smiling.

His P'Sing is strict when it comes to rules. Which he kinda see as admirable. One of the reason why he always obeys Singto and tries to follow his steps. And also the reason why he can't tell him how he truly feel for his P.

They grew up together. Singto always follows what he believes in and stays where he stands. He never crosses boundaries. Krist believes there's no chance Singto would ever feel the same way he does. Singto has been treating Krist as his little brother ever since. Nope. Not a chance. Especially that Singto has a partner now. It stings but Krist has to deal with it. It's better this way than lose him altogether.

In order to hide his feelings or maybe to move on from him, he tried dating girls. No one lasts long though. Maybe he just hasn't found his match yet?
"I'm in no hurry so whatever!"

"Hey, handsome.. Let's go?", Mara asked teasingly. She is Krist's closest female friend. She's been his friend since in University. They were in the same major. She's nice, beautiful, smart, and very professional when it comes to work.

"Hmm. Let's go.", Krist got out of the car and opened the car's door for her. They are on their way to have breakfast then go to the shoot after. Since Mara is their photographer and lives near their street, he insisted to pick her up going to the studio.

At the studio.

"By the way, the sponsor has requested to add another model for their brand. I hope you don't mind the sudden changes," Mara announced after they arrive at the studio. They all nodded in agreement. Singto, Gun, and a tall, slightly skinny, fair-skinned man were already at the scene preparing for the shoot. He is handsome too. He has an intimidating aura.

"Everyone, this is Off Jumpol. I hope we can all work smoothly together.", she added as she introduced the new guy.

"Ah, that's why he looks familiar! I've seen him hosting variety shows before and have been in some series too.", Krist thought to himself as he gazes upon the additional person.

"Yes, I know you. I've seen some of your works. You're good.", P'Sing said as he and Off shook hands.

"Don't flatter me, bro. Everyone here knows who the great actors are.", he responded, flashing a forced smile.

Krist shakes his head while listening to their conversation. He can sense they are both pretending and there's tension going on between them. Off isn't as popular as SingtoGun and has a reputation of being a hot head.

Krist smirked as he crossed his arms over his chest, "This is going to be interesting.", he whispered to himself.
