୨ৎ . Hueningkai

You met Hueningkai at a bar near the university. You exchanged numbers, continued talking, and saw each other outside the bar. Before long, he was a real tick, following you everywhere, staring at you with his wet-dog eyes, and always clinging to you, so close that you seemed like a couple… Something you couldn't care less about.

And that disinterest only seemed to increase Kai's insistence, as he continued trying to enter your world, to be interesting to you and more than just an experience. Every gesture of yours—no matter how small—kept him even more attached, especially if the gesture was for him; a smile, a glance... everything. It made him fall more and more in love with you, even if it was his downfall. He loved you with all his being, even if it wasn't mutual.

And that was proven when, once upon a time, you accepted him… And, it didn't last more than three days. Still, you kept Kai as a friend; he was pretty boring, yes, but you didn't want to break his heart.

“Hey, are you still drinking?”

“Oh no, I don’t do that anymore.”

You nodded slightly, more so as not to make it seem like you weren't listening, because you really weren't, and that question was nothing more than an excuse to stop Huening from talking about you and how much he loved you. You didn't mind, since you could tell he was trying to seem interesting.

“Hey, have you decided yet? I mean, you've been thinking about it for over two weeks… You know, the whole being my boyfriend thing… Again…”

His voice trembled, uncertain, as if he'd been holding back from asking, from ruining the... lovely moment? The one he thought they were sharing.
