Gun walked out of the washroom stall to the sink and began to wash his hands. After drying them he went ahead and tried to unlock the door. hm? he thought when his attempt didn't work. He decided to shrug it off and tried a second time.
What the fuck?? he aggressively started twisting and turning the door knob. Suddenly a hand, alot larger than his, engulfed his own. He immediately turned around to look at the owner of the hand.
"Off!?" he exclaimed.
"You know what's common between my dick and maths?"
"...what?" the shorter blinked.
"Both are hard for you."
"HUH?? What are you on about! Get me out of here I'm claustrophobic!"
"This place has proper ventilation and you were completely fine a few minutes ago?"
Feeling embarrassed, the shorter let go of the door knob and walked slightly backwards distancing himself from the older.
Slowly Off moved towards him and trapped him from both sides, standing closely.
"What are you doing?" Gun asked again.
"I'm no organ donor but I'd be happy to give you my heart."
"weren't you like mad at me?"
"no"
"Then what was all of this all these days?"
"I was distancing myself from you due to personal reasons."
Gun scoffed. "Do you have any idea what kind of mental and emotional suffering your 'distancing' caused me!?"
"Why? You like me?"
"Don't you fucking change the topic! Off, you're my friend first. You've been with me right from the beginning, even the friends I made were the people you introduced me to. You have always supported me, what do you think I would feel about loosing you?? right after your
..."
Off was stunned, he rested his head on Gun's shoulder and sighed. The shorter fluttered his eyes shut and both stayed in the position for a few minutes.
"I'm sorry" spoke the taller.
Gun shook his head and tried to push the other away but to no avail. Off was definitely stronger than him and didn't budge a centimeter.
"Please forgive me" Off pleaded.
"For what exactly? For the insults or you keeping your distance from me?"
"Both?"
"Give me your reason first"
Off groaned and supported his elbow against the wall. Gun stared right into his eyes, without blinking.
"Tay is my best friend, if he likes you and you like him back, then he can have you."
"Why did you degrade me then" Off thought for a minute. This was the part he did not wanna touch, his feelings. He never liked talking about them. But if he wanted to resolve things with the other he had to tell him everything.
"Some part of it was for pushing you away, the rest of it was because I didn't think you were the type to sleep around.
For the first two three days I felt betrayed. I thought I interpreted you wrong and my best friend did me bad just for a fuck. Despite knowing that I was... into you. I mean you know it already. I'm sorry about everything." Gun gazed at him to find any signs of insincerity.
"I forgive you"

"you'd tell them you're gay??"
"yeah and you'd be needing to come with me."
"What!? But you just said that--"
"No not as my boyfriend." Krist chortled. "as a friend and an eye witness."
"eye witness?"
"An eye witness to my gayness" he nodded, bending a little towards the other.
"Oh hell you've chosen the right person" Singto sneered and Krist laughed.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
And before Singto could react he was pulled out of the cafe by the hand.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?" the professor nervously asked once Krist's car stopped in front of his house.
"I think it's a brilliant idea. why? you don't think so?"
"um..." Why was Singto nervous? The way Krist explained his scheme it was obvious that he would be joining the other as a friend. This feels like I'm meeting my boyfriend's parents for the first time. What the fuck is wrong with me.
"Darn it, let's go." he exclaimed pushing the car door open. he placed a foot out and a gust of wind blew past him. "or maybe not..." he sat back it.
Krist shook his head and got out of the car himself. "You tend to really worry me sometimes Khun."
"h-hey don't call me Khun. I got a name."
Krist started laughing. "Wow, that's new. Where did this beautiful change come from."
"The friends code?"
"So does your friends code specify whether I should be using your nickname or your government first name?"
"my first name is alright."
"good. now let's go." he said dragging the helpless professor out by the arm.
They rang the doorbell and Singto uncomfortable shifted in his position.
"That's the most nervous I've ever seen you." Kris stated the obvious.
"Are you really sure about this?"
"Yeah"
"Do you really wanna do this?"
"Yeah"
A servant answered the door and bowed in respect. Krist nodded his head and Singto slightly bowed.
"Mom! Dad!" he called.
"We're here!" His mother yelled from the dining area.
He grabbed Singto's hand and pulled him along.
"How come you're here at this hour?" his parents asked, their eyes immediately fell on their clasped hands.
"Well... are we in for some announcement?" his father asked with uncertainty.
"Sort of?" he took a seat at the table and Singto sat adjacent to him. All this while the parents blankly stared at them.
"So what do you wanna tell us."
"I'm gay."
"Yeah we can see that."
"What?"
"Nothing, continue."
"I'm gay and I do not think I'd be able to proceed with that marriage."
"We- we understand." his mother barely uttered.
"Oh by the way this is my friend Singto. Got to know him from an employee."
"Oh? oh!" they looked somewhat relieved.
"Hello, I'm Prachaya Ruangroj, or just Singto. The production manager in his company is a friend of mine."
WHAT THE HELL SKSJDSKSK WHY DID I SAY FRIEND!? OH SHOOT.
Krist gave the other an incredulous look and tapped him on his thigh to know what was going on. He certainly wouldn't have minded the situation because if ever in the future Ohm and Singto broke up, this would make it easier for him to let Singto into his family. But somebody like Singto wouldn't do something like that. Was he ashamed of introducing himself as Ohm's boyfriend? No, that's not what it looked like, at least to Krist.
Singto internally hated himself for saying him. He didn't know what came onto him for him to do something like that. How was he going to face Ohm after this. He wasn't embarrassed of the younger, was he?
Krist's parent's weren't homophobic and that just got proved, so that would also not serve as an excuse for him to call his boyfriend a "friend".
"What do you do for a living child?" Krist's father asked with a smile.
Singto sighed already giving up on himself. "I'm a professor at a university."
"Oh that's nice!"
"I have a family friend, he's a history professor. The only thing you'd hear from him is how his pay is low but the college and the students are amazing so he loves his job." Singto awkwardly chuckled and nodded.
Krist shook his head. Yeah he had framed Nanon and Ohm but he wasn't expecting this from his beloved professor. Now Ohm and Singto weren't any different. Actually a little yeah, but more so both were sailing on the same boat. All thanks to him.
