Gun who is suffering from pain for almost 3 years when Tay Tawan, his love of his life left him.
Then there's Off, Gun's rude neighbor witness all of Gun's suffering. Will he be able to save Gun?
“Can you just listen to me first?!” the coldness in his voice turned into irritated and exhausted at the same time.
I remained silent. I didn’t even bother looking at him. I shook my head and glued my eyes on the floor.
“Look at me Gun,” he commanded.
I remained in my position. I just keep on slightly tapping my toes on the floor.
Okay. Pretend that you didn’t hear anything Gun. Just pretend.
I was shocked when he held my chin and slowly raised my head until my eyes reach his gaze.
And now, this is so damn awkward.
Help! I need help!
“The girl... earlier...
“You don’t have to explain. I don’t care who the hell---
“If you don’t shut your mouth, I’ll fucking kiss you again,”
I automatically shut my mouth and glared at him. This jerk just kissed me and it will never happen again! Damn it.
“The girl, she is Namtan. She is my one and only cousin.” He said and sighed out of annoyance.

My eyes widened.
What?! Off’s cousin???
“W-why d-didn’t you tell me?”
“You didn’t let me explain right? You just jump into your conclusions and didn’t even hear me out first. I told you to listen to me but you keep on interrupting me” He sighed again.
He held my hand and put it on his forehead. His forehead is hot! He has a fever?!
“I’ve been sick for a couple of days now. Namtan just drop some medicines in my unit. That’s all. Stop imagining things.” He said.
The weariness is evident in his eyes.
I stared the floor again and bit my lip. Can this floor opened up and swallowed me whole?! Goodness! I’m so guilty! I said rude things about her out of my anger earlier!
“Stop biting your lips.” He exclaimed out of nowhere.
“W-what?” I stared at him but his eyes are on my lips.
“Stop what you’re thinking asshole.” I warned him.
He let out a laugh and stared at me intently.
“What are you doing in front of my unit anyway?” he asked.
His attention is all on me.
I am mentally blocked. I didn’t know what to say.
Come on Gun! Think about some excuses will you?!
“I-I was just checking if your door is okay,”
I want to slap my face.
Checking the door? Really Gun? You’re stupid. Out of so many excuses, that’s the one you chose to spill?!
“Really?” Off and his famous smirked. He stared at me with amusement in his eyes.
“Y-yeah,”
“Liar,” he whispered in my ear. His breath sent shivers on me.
I pushed him away and walked directly to the sofa. I sat and grabbed a pillow and hugged it.
Damn! I’m so shy right now.
“Fine, I just go there to apologize about what happened 2 weeks ago. What I did was wrong. And I’m sorry” I closed my eyes and pinch the pillow hard. I’m like an idiot here but I don’t want to see his reaction.
“Okay. Apology accepted.” He said and sat beside me.
“I’ve just realized now, were like a couple fighting over jealousy earlier,” he wink at me and smiled seductively.
I glared at him.
Seriously? Is he really sick or not? Such a flirt.
After a moment, he move closer to me and leaned his head on my shoulder.
I froze.
“What the hell Off?!” I said and slightly pushed his head away but he just move closer until there is no space between us.
“I’m tired. My head hurts like hell. Please let me rest. Make this as an apology gift for me. You hurt me you know.” he said in a hoarse voice.
“Are you making me feel guilty?” I raised my eyebrow as if he will see it.
“Yeah.” He whispered.
“Asshole.”
“Come on, just a few minutes. I’m drained.” He begged like a kid.
“Why don’t you go back to your home? You will be more comfortable there,”
“But this feels like home already. Why would I bother finding another?”
Off is in a deep sleep on my shoulder. I’m trying not to make a move for him not to be disturbed.
Not just for a few minutes but for a couple of hours, we stayed in that position.
Didn’t thinking about the passing hours, just thinking about ourselves.
Just the two of us.....
