My Moon, Chapter 13 pg 4
“Yup.”
“Don’t drink too much, Panli…” the small guy said with a concerned tone and expression. “If you can’t drive back, take a taxi, okay?”
“Okay,” Panli replied. Phew, got that out of the way.
Panli let go of his fluffy head, moved my hand to shift gears, and drove out of the parking lot. On the way, they chatted casually. Klaijai has gotten so much better at talking. He glanced at the guy beside him, who was now nonstop sharing cute stories. When Klaijai is this lively, mischievous self…
It makes him want to…
…protect him forever.
Keep him as his little troublemaker forever.
Since traffic wasn’t bad today, he got Klaijai to his condo faster than expected. The small guy left his wallet with him on the car’s console, unbuckled his seatbelt, and got ready to get out. He turned to flash me a smile and waved goodbye.
It was at this moment he thought…
Man, you gotta be a bit clearer now.
“Klaijai…” Panli called out, stopping him as he was getting out. His almond-shaped eyes looked at me with curiosity. “I know we’ve known each other for a while now… and you have already let me be your friend.”
“…”
“But I want things to be clear for both of us…” Every step, every stage of our relationship… I want it to be as clear as possible. Of course, I hope it deepens over time, but it has to be clear too. “KhunKlai…will you be my friend?”
The little troublemaker gave a shy smile, then nodded firmly. “I agree.”
Damn…
So freaking cute.
Mom’s Winnie the Pooh could never compete with Klaijai…
“Have sweet dreams tonight, okay?”
“Mhm, sweet dreams to you too, Panli.”
The small guy opened the door to get out, but then he closed it again and turned to meet his eyes. At that moment… his heart trembled. It wanted to say something to him, but he could only bury those words deep inside and give him a reassuring smile, so he’d feel safe enough to say what he intended.
“Um, I… I know Panli is kinda impatient…” Klaijai looked down, avoiding my gaze, before continuing, “Honestly, it won’t be long before we’re even closer, I’m sure.”
“…”
In the next second, Klaijai looked up and met his eyes again. “We could just skip straight to being best friends, you know.”
Panli burst out laughing before replying, “Sure… so we’re best friends now, then.”
“Mhm… I’ll head off now.”
“Okay… sweet dreams, round two, Klaijai.”
Klaijai nodded before saying, “Sweet dreams, round two, to you too.”
Panli watched the small guy get out of the car, his eyes following him until he disappeared into the condo. Then he picked up his phone and typed a message to send him on LINE.
P. Panli: Sweet dreams, round three, sneaky guy.
Panli: sent a sticker
glaijai: sent a sticker
The sticker of a rabbit sleeping soundly on a bed with the English phrase “Good night” brought a wide smile to my face. The little hearts floating around the rabbit…
They made him lose…
Lose to Klaijai in every way…
