Krist stopped the car at the address that Singto had given or he forcibly made him spill so that he could be assured that the latter was safe instead of roaming around the street at midnight.

Singto turned to the door to unlock it but Krist stopped him by grabbing his arms.

"Don't think about anything and try to sleep a night, next daylight I will come-.." Krist was cut off harshly by Singto who yanked his hand back.

Krist eyes widen for a moment before softening after seeing Singto's apologetic look.

"I... I am sorry..... for earlier too... I shouldn't have to vent it on you... Thanks for dropping me!" Singto bows his head slightly before unlocking the door and hopping outside.

"I will appreciate and be grateful if you mind your own business and stop checking up on me," Singto slammed the door at the end and walked away.

"I didn't encounter anyone who tried to be rude in their soft voice!!" Krist laughed with his remark which was ignored by the walking figure. Krist drove off with a smile.

"When are you going to meet Sam?" Wad questioned which went unanswered.

"I prefer you because I don't want to speak to anyone and be alone, so please don't be like Aim," Singto sighed with his words before covering himself with a blanket.

"Where is he!!!" A deafening shrill made Singto pull his cover down and stare at Wad who smiled sheepishly.

"I didn't tell him to come-.."

"But you informed him I came to you and cried a lot at night, didn't you?" Singto let out another sigh after seeing Wad nod his head.

"Singto!!" Aim

"Honey!!" Oak

Singto didn't mind them he snuggled in the bed and covered himself completely with the blanket.

Wad explained what Singto told him last night to Oak and Aim.

"Vow... finally you won Sing!"

"What the fuck Ook?"

"What? This is what Singto wanted.... ask him to change me if I am wrong!"

"Singto!! Stop testing my patience" Aim yelled and made Singto sit at the bed.

Singto gazed at Oak who beamed at the latter.

"I tried Aim..... I tried to love Sam.."

"I know Singto... and you were almost there..."

"I was not Aim! I lied... I lied to my family because I don't want to hurt them, I lied to you all because I don't want you all to pity me.... and I lied to Sam because it was me.... who gave him H-hope.."

The three friends know how much Singto is a private person when it comes to expressing emotions but they don't think it was burning him alive.

"I tried to break the shackle I get myself into.... but all my attempt went in vain.... my heart was not ready to accept that... and it was always like that... sometimes... I hate myself for putting others first... I want to love myself and explore what I am by following both my mind and heart...." this time Singto raised his voice while his frustrated tears leaves from his orbs.

"So..... I thought to make myself bad... very bad.. so I... I deliberately dented..... Sam's favourite car... and shattered his phone..." Singto's face shows how much he is regretting it.

The three friends' eyes widen comically especially Aim who always treats Singto as one of the naive kids he ever discovers.

"And you say he is an angel!" Oak whispered at Aim who stood stupefied with disbelief look.

"I tried to ignore Sam's call.... Kept a distance... I even stopped kissing him for a week... I have seen how much he was losing his cool... I thought this would bring a crack in our relationship.... yet it didn't... he proposed to me... and the whole family was happy..... I can't spoil it..... they were glowing...."

Singto's heart continuously stings at his open up, it's been long since he let out his thoughts and speaking about it making him relieved yet bitter.

"I can't able to act anymore.... so I wanted to make my heart feel undeserved for Sam... I decided to do what Sam loath more... he is possessive and he doesn't like me speak with W-Wad..."

Wad doesn't give any reaction after all he is aware of Sam's stinky and raged eyes on him whenever he is with Singto.

However, he doesn't care about it, why should he? He is not doing any harm, he is Singto's friend and he has no intention so he never changes himself for Sam.

"That's why you joined Wad with a trip!" Oak states with an amused glance.

Every piece of information hits Aim in the overwhelming way that he finds himself sitting with his hands on his head. He massaged his head to lessen the spreading headache.

"I thought I would have the courage to leave him once I.... made myself.... bad"

"Bad? You became a wicked one Singto!" Wad told with a wink and earned a glare from Aim.

But the said figure didn't let out any reaction he was in his self loathe and voiced out his all inner emotions.

Singto wipes his tears with his forearm before whispering with utter downfall.

"What's more disgraceful is my feelings towards..... Krist.... I was so confident that I would hate myself after my action and mourn forever..."

The three gasped at Singto's statement.

"I feel myself wrong for hurting Sam but can't able to feel nasty for sleeping with Krist.... it feels right, I should have stopped his advances but I couldn't... I like it... My mind is revising the memory, even my heart wants to treasure it... I know I should feel d-dirty..." Singto couldn't able to continue as he broke down into tears a lot...

Aim quickly moved to him and embraced him tight.

"Silly.... why are you being an idiot!" Aim remarked while patting his friend's back.

After a few minutes of tears, Singto finally calms down and apologises to his friends for worrying them.

They all turned to the door bell which started to annoy them.

It's a one-room studio on the 4-storey apartment where wad's one is located on the first floor so before the next-door neighbour gets disturbed Wad opens it and raises his eyebrows at the stranger who demands Singto's presence.

Wad turned back and took a step forward with an amusing look.

Aim tilted his head and questioned Wad with his eyes for answers.

Wad shrugged his shoulders pointing his palm towards Singto whose eyes widened.

"Who is he Singto?"

The said letter didn't answer just hung his head down wiping his tears.

"Is it him?" Wad inquired with an exciting smile.

A slow nod from Singto alerted Aim who walked to the door and opened it.

"Hi, I am krist.. I came to check on Singto!"

"Why do you want to do that? Did Singto allowed you to visit him?" Aim asked in his hard voice.

Before Krist replied to him, Singto dragged the latter out of the door to the ground floor.

"Why are you here?" Singto's cold voice echoed in the parking area.

Krist moves close and caresses Singto's puffy cheeks with his thumb, "I told you to not cry right? Stop harming yourself."

Singto wonders why his heart is fragile whenever he sees Krist, even now the latter's genuine care and touch bring comfort to his sorrowful heart.

His arms prickle to wrap around the latter neck and places his head on the latter's welcoming torso.

And when Krist pulled Singto to his chest and patted his back, the latter instantly melted forgetting his ache and crime.

His eyes once again pooled by the rightful emotions he felt by Krist instead of dirt.

He is dangerous, Krist is dangerous for Singto so the latter jolted away from the latter and glared harshly with his wet eyes.

"For the last time, stay out of my life before I call the police!"

A raspy voice didn't scare Krist instead worried him for his health.

"Did you have any food? You should have! I will come back tomorrow, make sure you eat and sleep well-...."

Singto stopped hearing Krist's rant as he realised how important Krist was in his life. He used to hear and read stories about how some people are destined to be together.

He assumed that it was just a fantasy or blessing that happened once in a while and one in a million.

However, he didn't expect it to happen in his life. Otherwise, why would he feel butterflies with a stranger in one meeting?

He took a step back with a shake of his head. "I hate you... I hate you... I should not like you....don't you dare visit me again..." Singto ran away after whispering the words with a dreadful heart ignoring Krist saying, "I will stop by soon!"

Krist stared at him with a smile on his face and walked away after waving his hand at Singto's friends who were watching him from a balcony.

Aim noticed the figure who was following him from the morning in the parking lot. He had enough. He stomped towards him.

"What do you want?!! Stop stalking me!" Aim yelled at Krist who shrugged and leaned against his car.

"A talk! Brief talk about Singto," Krist declared with a serious look.

Aim gritted his teeth with a sigh, "I don't like to have any discussion about Singto with you!"

"He likes me... I can feel it... His smile is his best element and I want to keep that on his face most of the time.... but I can't do that until I know his past.... and the problem which is eating him..." Krist spoke not caring about Aim's disinterest.

"I heard everything he spoke with you that day..." Krist revealed recalling his memory of how he eavesdropped while standing outside the door.

"Meet at the studio," Aim interrupted Krist and walked away.

"What do you want to know?" Aim asked after locking his cabin and taking his place opposite Krist who threw the question right away.

"About his relationship with Sam."

"Only that?"

"Yes, others I can hear from Singto," Krist states impatiently.

"It was Sam's parents' 30th-anniversary party, we were all invited," Aim started with a sigh.

"We were fine, having our time talk and drinks, Singto went to speak with Sam's family, and at one point we heard a loud applause when we turned-...,"

"Boom," Oak entered the room with a yell earning a blank reaction from them.

"No fun!! Anyway, Singto kissed Sam who right away kissed him back and said he had been in love with him for a long and thanked him for accepting his proposal which we were not aware by the way! Sam and his family were over the world!"

"That's it?"

Aim furrows at Krist's uncaring nature before continuing, "After that Singto was in a trance, and when we inquired why he hid his love for Sam..."

"He said that he didn't know he liked Sam until he kissed the latter," Oak shrugged remembering Singto's dumb answer years back.

Krist stood from his chair bowed at them with a thank you and walked away ignoring Oak and Aim's call for him.

Singto jerked back dropping his t-shirt when the door was opened without a knock.

"What the hell? Trespassing is a crime!"

"Wad gave me a spare key!"

"For god sake stop charming people!" Singto eyes widen by his own words.

He sighed before bending and taking his shirt and trying to put it on.

Krist stopped him by pulling his wrist, "let me enjoy a little more," he winked at him with a mouthing kiss.

Singto smashes Krist's head with his free hand, "Get lost and stop stalking my friends!"

"Then shall I stalk you?" Krist asked slamming himself on the kitchen chair with his crossed arms and head on it.

Singto scowls at the latter, "Don't you already doing that?"

Krist shook his head innocently and earned an eye roll.

"Seriously Krist when will you stop bugging my friends," Singto asked with an irritated sigh.

"When you go out with me!"

"I won't.... ever so stop tormenting me!!" Singto screamed with an utter irate.

"I am tired Krist.... and your presence reminds me how scandalous person I am!" Singto said sitting in another chair.

Krist was staring at Singto without blinking before asking the question.

"Why did you kiss Sam that night and accept him when you don't love him?"

Singto's face went white he locked his lips and averted his face away. One more past that he doesn't want to keep in his memory.

"Singto.... I wish to know, I am not playing this for any fun, even if it is not for me at least speak for yourself," Krist requested stooping his head more into his arms and staring at Singto sincerely which always shook his protective wall.

Singto doesn't want to open up since it will bring him nothing but downfall in his character which is already not decent in front of Krist's eyes.

Moreover, now that he is aware he is vulnerable and timid when it comes to Krist he doesn't want to add it more.

"Sing please," Krist pleaded with his attractive begging expression which worked very finely by breaking Singto's barrier to dust.

Not to mention the short form of his name which sounded sensual and perfect from Krist's mouth.

He joined his legs together rubbing his thighs to hide his lower part shiver.

"Krist we can't be together, it's not right," Singto tried to make the latter understand with his unsure voice.

"I know our start was wrong Sing, but we can make it right but accepting our fate and correcting the wrongness, I will be with you till the end," Krist assured moving his chair close to Sing to rub his ears.

Singto pushed his hand away and slammed his head on the counter.

"It...... wasanaccident.."

"Huh?"

"..."

"Sing I can't hear you properly," Krist spoke and crouched close to Singto who whispered again but this time a little slow.

"It was an accident!"

"Accident?" Krist furrows backing away.

Singto peeks side and opens up about what happened that day.

"P'Sam asked me out when he called me to inform about his parent's anniversary party and requested me to think about it for a day before giving him the answer."

Krist hummed and played his hand on Singto's bangs before stroking it assuringly.

"I.... give it a thought but I couldn't able to see him as my date so I decided to reject him.... but... I messed up, I was drunk that night," Singto recollected his memory to recall that night.

"Sam's father called me to introduce my dad's childhood friend to me... I was with them for some time, when I felt a little dazed I excused myself and rushed to my friend's side.... unfortunately, I stumbled on my way... and when I gathered myself from the shock I was on Sam's arms my l-lips on his lips with lights on me..."

"I don't want to embarrass Sam and break his parents' heart on their best day, every time Sam do things to make my heart flutter I feel more and more guilty than ever, and that was why I couldn't able to confess the truth, I lost my family and all I have is Sam's parents so I decided to cheer them by giving it my all."

Krist's heart banged at the sight of Singto's half teary eyes, and shameful voice.

"I swear I didn't mean to hurt Sam but I was so afraid to lose them that I faked my feelings..... I never imagined one day my bottled emotions would d-destroy my life," Singto lifted his face and cried frankly letting out his frustration.

"I wish I turn back time and join my parents on that t-trip and be dead with t-them, even now.... I am not worried for Sam but for his family.... what if Mom finds out about me?.... won't she abandon m-.."

Krist enveloped him in his tummy caressing his head and kissed his hair a lot.

"She won't abandon you! No one can! After all, you are not only precious from head to toe but inside too, your love is to die for," Krist consoled him with assuring statements.

Singto cried more hearing Krist's continuous sweet words. He glanced up with his tears flowing.

"Why are you making my heart pounding crazily? Why are you speaking like you have known me for years? Just why.... did you want to stay with m-me?" Singto whimpered in his sorrowful voice.

"If I know the answer I will surely tell you Sing.... but one thing I was certain was, you are a miracle in my life, everything about you is magic for me, it's like my soul is connected with yours by a thread" Krist answered before capturing the wet lips and tasted the salty tears which made him go more smoothly.
