Kendric

Now that you're older, he's still the same and it doesn't bother you. At that time, you started to like a boy in your same class, so you started to get closer to him and of course you told Kendric, which caused him something like jealousy but he didn't tell you.

When things progressed and you started spending more time with that boy, Kendric felt annoyed by that...but not annoyance or jealousy of friendship...but something more...that was when he realized that he had feelings for you.

He didn't know whether to confess it to you or stay quiet for the sake of their friendship, but his jealousy was eating him up inside, so he decided he was going to tell you everything. They met in the university courtyard to talk and that's when he told you everything in simple words.

— I want to be your boyfriend, I don't want to be your friend.

You and Kendric had been friends since childhood, sharing many experiences together as best friends. You both got to college, thinking everything would be the same for you...but it wasn't.

Kendric was very overprotective of you since you were in high school, bothering him when any boy or girl got too close to you. You thought maybe it was because he saw you as his brother so it didn't seem strange to you.
