《我烦人的未婚夫》

"Wait...Wait, P'!", Kit heard Ming loud and clear but he didn't want to turn around. At the moment, he didn't want to face him.

"P'!", Ming called out to him once more, he grabbed Kit by his wrist to stop him from walking further away. He was desperate.

Desperate to explain himself.

Afraid to let go.

"Let me go", said Kit without turning his head.

"Listen to me".

"I said, let me go!", Kit exclaimed as he glared at Ming.

"Please. I can explain".

At this point, the girl was confused and lost as to what to do.

"You don't have to. There's no need to! You're busy right, don't waste your time on me then", Kit said, as he struggled to throw Ming's hand off. It was harder to do so as this time, Ming was holding tightly.

"Let go of me!", Kit shouted and it cause everyone to look their way. Surprisingly, it was loud enough to attract the attention of Kit's friends.

"Hey! What happened?", Pha asked once he arrived at the scene.

"Fucking let me go!".

"Oi, Ai'Ming. Let him go. I don't know what happened but you're causing a scene here", said Beam.

"N'Ming, let go". Ming loosened his grip and Kit took that chance to throw his hand away and ran away with Beam following after him.

"He won't listen to you when he's in this state. Try again after he cools his head", Pha advised Ming as he patted him on his shoulder and ran after Kit.

'Liar, busy my ass! How dare you, you brat!", Kit shouted as he threw his pillow at the wall.

"Arghhh! I am pissed!", he exclaimed as he threw another one.

"Oi oi. Why are you angry anyway? Didn't you say you don't like him in that way?", Beam teased.

"I don't know!".

"Aiya aiya just admit already. You like him, don't you? Or else, you won't be this angry", Beam teased.

"Shut--", Kit was able to finish off his sentence as a call cut him off. Looking at the caller ID, Kit hesitated to answer the call.

"Your fiance is calling you again. Just pick it up already", Beam urged him.

"I don't want to talk to him nor do I want to hear his voice now", Kit huffed he sulked. Just then, they heard some noise. This time, it was Beam's phone.

"Oh, now he's calling me", Beam sang as he waved his phone in front of Kit who glared at him before threatening him.

"Don't you dar--"

"Oops, I pressed the wrong button", Beam said as he laughed and threw the phone at his friend.

"Ai'Beam, you're going to get it from me later! You shithead!", Kit exclaimed as Beam ran away.

"Hello? Is this P'Beam?".

"...Beam's not here at the moment. What do you want".

"P'Kit! It's you, right? I'm very sorry for what happened the other day. It was a misunderstanding. It wasn't what you thought it was", Ming apologised as soon as he recognised the voice.

"I told you there's no need to explain, didn't I? Our engagement was arranged by our parents anyway, we can break it off anytime we want to", Kit gritted his teeth as he said so.

"... will you please listen to me? I beg you", Kit couldn't help but felt his heart aching as he heard Ming. He sounded as if he was in so much pain and for some unknown reason, it pained Kit too.

"...speak".

"The girl you saw the other day, it was my cousin. I bet you've seen her before when we were kids. She came back from England recently and I was asked to take care of her while she's here", Ming explained.

"When I told you I was busy, I was actually afraid to see you. I was afraid that you might not want to see me after all that had happened. I didn't expect things to come out this way", he continued.

"You're a fool. Didn't I say it's okay?
Did I ever say anything about not wanting to meet up with you anymore? I didn't, so why are deciding things on your own?", Kit scolded him.

"So...I am forgiven?", Ming asked.

"Only if you take me to dinner".

"Sure! Then I'll come and get you after this, I love you P'!", Ming exclaimed with excitement as Kit's lips curved into a smile.

"I'll see you then, you better be on time!", Kit said before he hung up.
