Phuwin was only sixteen when he met Pond - eight years older, already stepping into the world he could only dream of. To Pond, Phuwin was a bright, curious junior who followed him around with wide eyes and a shy smile. To Phuwin, Pond was everything he wasn't ready to admit he cared for.
Phuwin knew the truth too well:
the age gap, his youth, the unspoken line he must not cross.
So he buried every feeling, every spark, every heartbeat that rose whenever he looked his way.
Then the day came when Pond's dream called him to Bangkok, pulling him far from their small, shared world. Phuwin said goodbye with steady hands and a trembling heart, letting him leave without ever knowing how deeply he felt.
Five years passed...
Years in which he tried - and failed - to forget him.
Years in which fate quietly circled back.
And when they meet again, their story begins not from where it ended, but from everything he never said.
