There is something about the way Fah keeps a track of Phoon through his eyes. Staring as if the little one will disappear the moment he blinks even once.
From the moment he wakes up to the moment they go back to sleep, his eyes follow his little one throughout.
After the incidents where he had already lost Phoon once, and then Phoon and North were hit by Phoon's father, the stares have become more unstoppable.
"P'Fah, Phoon isn't going anywhere. Phoon is still here in your arms. Please rest a little bit, you've been staring at me nonstop all the way from college."
"Little one, I know I may have been staring at you for so long, it's just that my mind has still not accepted that you're fine. Let P'Fah stare for a little more na~"
"You know, P'Fah, Phoon has noticed that you've developed a new habit. If you can't have Phoon on your lap, P'Fah keeps staring at me like I'm a rare treasure." Phoon says with a smile.
Fah gives a smile and pulls him closer in his arms. "Let's sleep now, little one. We have a lot to do tomorrow after returning to the campus. If I want to keep staring at them, then I need to do as Phoon says."
As morning breaks, sunlight seeps inside the room. Phoon opens his eyes and sees a familiar scene he always sees in the morning. The serene face holds various memories ranging from childhood until now. He sees a person with whom he has promised to spend his remaining life. Someone whom he had left in the dark due to his low self-esteem. Kept secrets that felt like guilty burdens later on, yet there was nothing that could keep him away from his Phi.
He lifts his fingers and lightly traces Fah's face, starting from the forehead to the chin, then moving to the cheeks, tracing the lips and nose bridge, and finally the Eyes— the same eyes which follow him throughout the whole day whenever they are together. Making sure that he is safe and sound, happy, and enjoying his time with everyone.
"P'Fah, do you know how fast my heart races whenever they meet Phoon's? They are the depth were I have found my universe, which Phoon doesn't want to lose. Can Phoon keep you closest to his soul ?" he whispers slowly while caressing his love's face.
"Ofcourse my little one, keep me close to your soul just as P'Fah has kept you closest to his soul," Fah replies without opening his eyes and smiles.
Opening his eyes slowly, they make eye contact, getting lost in each other. Phoon turns red the moment the contact starts, making Fah think in his mind, "His eyes really are a window to his soul, the stories which they tell me, oh God, I wish I would ever stop reading them."
