"Hin, are you free tonight?", Tay asked New after their photoshoot for a photobook.
"Hmm.. Yeah. Why?", New responded while changing his fashion outfit into something casual.
"Off and Gun wanted to meet with us. Seems like Krist finally showed up.", the handsome actor replied as he was packing his things up, preparing to go home.
"Ok.", the bulky man agreed.
"What's up?", Tay finally faced Newwiee, sensing that the latter is sulking.
"Nothing..", New responded but pouting.
"Uhuh.. Nothing but you looked like you are constipated.", Tay teased his boyfriend.
"I didn't like what you answered in the interview earlier.", he said in a sulky voice. Tay is amused at how his partner is acting. He knows what New is referring to. The part where they were questioned what is the status of their relationship, he immediately answered, they were 'bestfriends'.
"Aw.. Would you have wanted me to tell them you are my boyfriend then?", he asked.
New didn't respond, paused for a moment, then sighed.

"Fine. Nevermind.", he then uttered, leading the way out of the studio. Tay shook his head, feeling disappointed somehow. Concealing their relationship is sad to be honest. But it is what New wanted. To just pretend as friends in front of other people. Sometimes he wonders if New really loves him. He acts cute and gentle when it's just the two of them, then aloof and distant in front of others.
"It's better this way, I guess. Nothing much to worry about. Except those women who's lurking around, trying to snatch this stubborn man away from me.", he thought to himself. Scoffing at his own thought.
"Hey.. What are you thinking about?", Newwiee nudged on his elbow after parking the car in the restaurant's parking area.
"Uhm.. Nothing. Just thinking about us.", Tay answered honestly.
Off and Gun waved at Tay and New as soon as they saw them approaching the table they reserved. They greeted each other happily and chatted since they haven't been together for a while.
"As y'all know.. Krist has already showed up.", Gun began the 'meeting' after their order has been served.
The three men nodded, acknowledging what Gun has just said.
"Yeah. I don't know what will happen next. But.. I hope we can be there for both of them if ever. Especially for Singto. He has gone through a lot.", the little guy continued.
"In my opinion, Krist is also suffering in this situation.", Newwiee interrupted.
"Eh? How can you tell?", Off asked.
"Well, being separated with the person you love to establish yourself first and be someone he can be proud of, it's hard. I think that's what happened. As he said before he left, he doesn't deserve Singto. Means he was really insecure of himself. I commend his courage and determination to push his limits and succeed on his own.", Newwiee responded in a serious manner. Shrugging.
Tay looked at New with admiration. Hr didn't realize this man can also be sensitive sometimes. While Off and Gun nodded in agreement.
"You got a point.", Gun answered absentmindedly.
"I, myself, want to be someone who can stand in front of everyone and be looked at with equal respect and don't like to be a weigh for my partner's success.", Newwiee continued which made Tay turn his gaze towards his partner again, looking curious.
New avoided his gaze then occupied himself with the deserts on their table.
Off and Gun looked at each other. New's speech somehow hit a spot in their chest.
"Anyway.. Since Krist has already made a move, all we can do is wait and watch their story unfold. I don't want to butt in their business. It's up to them if they will fix it or not. Let's not meddle anymore.", Tay suggested as he continues to eat his food.
"I hope they can still save even just their friendship though.", Gun uttered, pouting, his spoon stuck in his mouth while speaking. Off shook his head, disagreeing to what the cutie guy just said.
"I hope so too.. But I don't see it happening anytime soon.", he sighed, sipping from his tea.
"This complicated shit, isn't my cup of tea. Fight for it if he wants to, let go if rejected. That's it.", Off said as if complaining.
"Ah.. No wonder.", Gun uttered, almost whispering.
"What's that?", Off asked, evident that he heard what the little guy said.
Tay and New were busy feasting on their dinner.

"I said, the food is great.", he changed the subject. The handsome tall guy gave in and turned his attention to his dinner, shaking his head.
Each has something going on in their head. They all seemed courageous at speaking their own mind but were all afraid to express their feelings. Everyone went silent, avoiding the topic which was more important. And they all knew it.
