Ming's POV.

P'Forth met us at the Shabu Shabu Hot Pot grill which is located just behind the university campus.

We arrived a few minutes late because it took Ai'Yo a while to finish changing and get ready for our dinner.

My friend really has a problem with punctuality since we were kids. ?

I know for the fact that my best friend agreed to treat P'Forth on my behalf but I also doubt someone as gentle as P'Forth would even allow us to do that.

He's my senior in our faculty. We started to get close the day he introduced himself as my mentor for the upcoming Moon and Star Compet.i.tion that's why I know him a lot.

He may look cool and rough on the outside but he's one of the most gentle type of a person I have ever known. And with the way he looks at my adorable best friend is something I a.s.sume would make him willingly pay for our bills tonight. ?

"Ming." P'Forth's voice slaps me from my absorption.

"What's bugging your friend?" He asks.

He was referring to Ai'Yo who hasn't even touched his food yet since our order arrived. We were busy tossing meat and vegetables on the hotpot but this little guy seems to be lost on a different world.

He just sat there quietly beside me. I try to cheer him up by teasing him a bit.

"He's heartbroken, P'," I told my senior without hesitations.

"Heartbroken? What happened?"

I turned to look at Yo, smirking to my chins, saying the words out loud near his ears. "His dog abandoned him and went to chase after a female dog."

As expected, he flashes a piercing look towards me which I only find cute and makes me want to pinch his fluffy cheeks.

"Do you want a slap on the face, Ai'Ming?" He asks sarcastically.

"Here you go." P'Forth tosses a few dumplings to his plate. "Just eat. You're such a tragic lead in a soap opera." He jokes in a serious tone.

He adds a few more dumplings, urging my little friend to eat despite his miserable look.

do know what's bugging him. I've spent a lot of time listening to his whines about his high school crush since I could remember. P'Pha is this... P'Pha is that... P'Pha likes this and that... And I couldn't help but feel sorry for him being hurt this way.

So I came up with something that may help him get a lighter head. As nosy as I am, I dropped a question at P'Forth without hesitations.

"Hey P', do you know P'Pha's girlfriend?"

I tried to catch Wayo's eyes and wriggled my eyebrows as if telling him You should be grateful I asked that question on your behalf.
