I came to your wedding because not coming would mean I loved you less. And I could never love you less. Ten years ago, in a crowded psychology lecture, Pond Naravit explained the concept of Limerence to Phuwin Tangsakyuen-a state of involuntary, obsessive infatuation. He didn't realize then that he was defining his own future. Now, Pond sits seven rows back, a silent witness as the person he has loved for a decade prepares to say "I do" to someone else. It is a story of quiet sacrifices, ten years of "almosts," and the devastating cost of staying silent. How long can you love someone from a distance before the silence finally destroys you?

⚠️ DISCLAIMER This story contains mature themes, including bullying, emotional manipulation, toxic relationships, obsession, trauma, violence, and dark romance elements. Reader discretion is strongly advised. If you are sensitive to intense emotional content, dark psychology, or morally grey characters, please proceed with caution. This is a work of fiction meant for mature audiences only (18+). Ten years ago, Pond bullied the only boy he ever loved- and it broke Phuwin enough to make him disappear. Now Pond is powerful. Feared. A man who takes what he wants. And what he wants... is the boy he destroyed. But Phuwin isn't delicate anymore. He's a flame-sharp, dangerous, and ready to burn Pond alive. Let the game of love, obsession, and revenge begin.

Before college, Phuwin confesses in a letter and hides it in Pond's bag. Pond never finds it. Years later, after drifting apart, Pond cleans his old backpack and finally opens the letter. But Phuwin's married now, and the timing's gone. "You told me everything too late. Or maybe I found it too late. Either way, we missed it."
