LOGINTanin “Tee” has always been the dependable one, the loyal best friend who stood beside Pat through heartbreak, ambition, and every messy chapter in between. So when fate reunites him with Wayu, Pat’s unforgettable ex lover, Tee knows he should keep his distance. But Wayu is no longer the reckless artist who shattered Pat’s heart years ago. Now successful, magnetic, and impossibly charming, Wayu slips past Tee’s defenses with teasing smiles, stolen glances, and a vulnerability hidden beneath his carefree facade. What begins as harmless encounters soon turns into something far more dangerous. Tee finds himself torn between the growing desire he can no longer deny and the friendship he refuses to betray. As buried feelings resurface and old wounds reopen, tensions explode between the two best friends, threatening to destroy the bond they once believed unbreakable. But love is never simple, and neither is Wayu. Behind his playful charm lies a truth Tee never expected, one that could change everything he thought he knew about heartbreak, loyalty, and second chances. Caught between guilt, passion, and the fear of losing everyone he loves, Tee must decide whether following his heart is worth risking it all.

Back in the present, Yut exhaled slowly.The apple remained untouched.His eyes returned to Pat.The sleeping man looked younger somehow.Less guarded.Less defensive.Less angry at the world.Yut carefully placed the knife down.Then moved closer.For a long moment, he simply sat there.Watching.Thinking.Feeling.Eventually, he reached out.His fingers lightly brushed against Pat's cheek.Warm.Soft.Real.His hand lingered.Then gently slid into Pat's.Holding it between both of his own.Carefully.Protectively.As though afraid he might break.Yut lowered his eyes."Let me in, Pat."His voice was barely above a whisper."I promise to take care of you."The words disappeared into the quiet room.Then suddenly,The door burst open."Tee!"Yut immediately stood.Tee rushed inside.His expression fell the moment he saw the hospital bed.The IV line.The monitor.The sleeping figure."Pat... Pat."His voice cracked slightly.He hurried to the bedside and touched Pat's forehead.Relief
The room was dark.Not completely dark, just enough for the shadows to swallow everything except the faint rays of sunlight struggling through the curtains.Pat lay curled beneath the duvet.His face was pale.His breathing was uneven.Every few minutes, a violent cough tore through his chest, leaving his body trembling afterward.His fever had gotten worse.Much worse.The heat burning beneath his skin made him ache all over, while the chills beneath the blanket refused to leave him alone.He felt miserable.Hot.Cold.Heavy.Even lifting a finger felt exhausting.Things were getting out of hand.Yet he was too weak to do anything about it.Pat slowly turned onto his side.A painful groan escaped his lips as he reached for his phone from the bedside table.His fingers trembled.His vision blurred.The screen illuminated his pale face.Without thinking, he opened his contacts.Tee.His thumb hovered over the name.Almost immediately, images of Tee flashed through his mind.Tee forcing
“I went out with Yut to watch hockey yesterday,” Pat murmured quietly.The confession came so suddenly that Tee almost choked on his coffee.He lowered the mug and looked at Pat over the rim.“Oh?”A teasing smile appeared.“So you finally called him.”Pat immediately frowned.“No, I didn't call him.”Tee laughed.“Sure.”“I didn't.”“You're blushing already.”“I'm not blushing.”“You are.”Pat grabbed a cushion and threw it at him. Tee caught it effortlessly.“Violence. Nice.”Pat rolled his eyes before finally sighing.“I was thinking about calling him.”“There we go.”“But he called first.”Tee's smile widened.“He asked if I was bored.”“And?”Pat looked away.“He said he'd like to keep me company.”The words sounded casual.Yet they lingered.Pat sat down on the couch opposite Tee and rested both elbows on his knees.Tee picked up the television remote from the center table and switched on the TV. The screen lit up instantly, filling the room with the sound of a random morning p
Tee’s jaw tightened instantly. “Dad, don’t bring Mix into this,” he said firmly, finally lifting his eyes toward his father. “He isn’t your child. I’m here already, so say whatever you want to say to me, not him.” The dining room fell completely silent. Even the maids standing quietly at the cor
Tee remained motionless on the bed after the memory faded from his mind.The silence inside the dark bedroom became unbearably loud.Slowly, his fingers curled tightly into his palm until the veins beneath his skin protruded sharply.His jaw clenched hard.A bitter scoff escaped from him as he shut
Tee slowly lowered the phone from his ear after the call ended.For several seconds, he remained completely still.Then quietly,he let the phone slip from his fingers onto the bed beside him.The bedroom was dark except for the faint amber light from the city outside filtering through the half-ope
A few moments later, waitresses returned to their table carrying steaming dishes carefully balanced on polished trays.The rich aroma of grilled steak, butter, herbs, and roasted spices instantly filled the air around them.One waitress gently placed the beautifully plated steak in front of Pat whi
