It's a very nice day today despite the heavy rain last night. The sun shines brightly as I walk down the road this morning. I am now two blocks away from my house going to school. It's quite far I know but I prefer to walk.

There are vehicles passing by and some students like him going to school too. He looks at his watch on his wrist while playing with the strap of his backpack. It's 7:30 already. He still has enough time to go to the nearest bookstore. He just want to pay a visit in that place and look for some stuff.

He is now crossing a pedestrian lane and busy with his thoughts when someone tap his shoulder.

"Hey Win! Going there again?" Khaotong said pointing to the bookstore across the road. Win looks at him smiling. Oh yeah! How did he ever forget this guy? His best friend since grade school. Yes! They've been best of friends since then.

Win never had a friend when he was a kid. He always in a corner of the room alone. He never join with other kids of his age. He always play alone and sometimes he just sit in a swing in the playground of their school staring at those children playing happily.

He is just a quiet boy but a top student of their class. When he was in his 10th grade, that's the time Khaotong bravely offered his friendship to him. Because all of his classmates found him weird in some ways. He was very elusive that no one dare to approach him. When someone tries to be near him he just walks away without even looking back.

Yeah! He's weird! In a sense that when you look at him you will think, 'why do he always looks like that?' 'Why is he like that?' Well, from the way he dressed he's really kinda weird. He's always in his hoodie covering his head and his arms and he's wearing a thick eyeglasses. He always covering his face by looking away or on the ground when someone is trying to talk to him. No one ever seen his face except his family and of course his best friend. He just dont want to. He is not comfortable at all when someone tries to.

He is like that until now though they are in their first year in college. Luckily their school is not that strict in the way they dressed as long as they stay on the top and maintain their grades. Though it is not a problem for him because he is the top student in his batch.

"Yes, why? Is there any problem?" Win answered back while smirking.

"Why are you like that? Don't you want me to go with you? Do you found another bestfrend there?" He said making a sad face. Win can help it but laugh to his silly friend.

" Hey! Why are you laughing? I'm serious you know?" He said while pouting. Win slap his arm jokingly.

"Don't make face ok? You're ugly." Win continue and start walking again. They are now nearing the store.

"Yeah, right! Who am I compared to you? You are such a lovely duckling." Then he runs fast going to the bookstore because he knows Win will never spare him knowing that he calls him "lovely duckling" again.

Win chases Khaotong in the bookstore but suddenly stops when someone bumps into him. He say sorry to whoever it is because he doesn't have enough time and he needs to catch his idiot friend. He really need him to pay for his being badmouthed. How dare he call him that nickname again? He hates it! He really is! He's planning now on how he will gonna make him pay for ruining his mood by just that words.
