Ethan brushed his hair as he went down the stairs. "Where's my snack?"

Yohan pushed the plate on the table. It's toasted bread with strawberry jam.

"I hate strawberries," Ethan said, but he still proceeded to eat it.

"I got to tell you something," Yohan said as he looked at Ethan, busy eating. He was slightly in a rush because he had taken a nap and hadn't woken up by his alarm.

Ethan rolled his eyes. "Yohan, if you just woke me up, I'll have the time to listen to you, but now, I do not have."

"Well, I think you do not want to listen to this."

"Why?"

"Because it is about the apartment."

Ethan shrugged. "You're right. Keep it to yourself."

Yohan rolled his eyes. When it comes to the apartment, Ethan hasn't had the energy to listen to it. The only thing is that it generates income to keep them alive and make more developments on their apartment. He just let Yohan lead the way, and he'll oblige. Now, Yohan thinks he's more

    "Why the hell didn't you tell me a thing?" asked Ethan as he dropped the utensils on the table.Yohan shrugged. "Well, clearly because you weren't interested in everything that I say. Earlier, I was about to say it, but you said you are not interested and just keep it to myself.""You!" said Ethan. He wanted to protest more but what Yohan had said was somewhat true. It's his fault for not paying attention and for not giving any care to the apartment. "When did we have a function hall?"We got it constructed last time."Ethan looked so puzzled. "Wait. How? I mean, why? And why was it so fast?""I have observed other competitors see what areas we are lacking, and to what areas will give us an advantage. I have already added a pool area, and a function hall, and a bar too."Ethan looks amused. The only time that he went there was when he needed to meet the staff. Other than that, he never visited again. Maybe, there's a part of him that thinks

    Ethan still has not yet gotten used to working in his office. And he was working with Chad. It has been days when he started working, and that also means there are only a few days until the acquaintance party takes place.Chad's classes are on Wednesdays and Fridays. And right now, he's looking at his schedule."Wednesday," he said as he looked at Chad, busy working on the paperwork. Chad did not enter his office after that day. He's just looking at him from behind. Sometimes, he goes to his mini living room and watches television. When it's already afternoon, Yohan goes to his office, and they'll go together to the parking lot so Yohan can drop him off at the university.He's really trying to get used to that routine. Even though sometimes he feels useless because he just sits in his office and waits for the afternoon to come.He propped his elbow to the table and just looked at Chad, who had been busy working. He wonders if he's just the same as the oth

    Ethan pushed the rack of clothes and pulled out the navy-blue dress. "I think this dress suits you, Chrys."Chrystyn looked at it and sighed. "Hmm, I don't know. The color seems dull, though."He put it back on the rack and pulled out another one. He poked Chrystyn and pointed out the red dress with a high slit. "How about this?""This is gorgeous!" said Chrystyn as she grabbed the dress from Ethan and placed the dress in front of her body as she looked in the mirror. "I think I like this."Ethan has paid for the dress. Sure, Yohan said he could spend money on his attire, but he realized that he'd just go with the black suit he has on his home. Now, he's treating Chrystyn to the dress that she liked. He can see that it suits her too. All they know is to purchase a mask.They entered another shop just two blocks away from where they were. Ethan admits that he's been looking forward to this occasion, particularly that Chad asked him out. He also like

    Their lips met one another. Chad bit his lower lips, making him groan. He put his hands on Chad’s nape and pulled him closer to his lips. It seems like it has already been a long time since they have kissed and touched each other, and this feeling just fills their hunger.Ethan felt Chad’s hands roaming from the top of his chest down to his waist and squeezing it. On the other hand, from Chad’s nape, he touched his chest and pushed him to the corner. Chad turned their position around, with Ethan now leaning on the corner of the pavilion.He felt Chad’s tongue entering his mouth and sucking his tongue. He groaned, and he did the same thing to Chad, causing Chad to be more aggressive. He grinned.Ethan pulled back and licked his lips. “I like you a lot.”“I like you a lot, too. And I am going crazy with what we’re doing right now,” said Chad as he leaned closer again to kiss Ethan.After a long mi

    "In my place," said Ethan as he buckled up. The class has just ended, and as Chad told him, he is taking him home when it's his class schedule.Chad sighed. "I'm still thinking about it because first, Yohan is there. His room is just meters away from yours. Not that I don't trust him, but wouldn't that be awkward that I am dating the boss, and he's working with me?"Ethan shook his head. "When we choose your place too, that means I'll leave Yohan behind. Yohan isn't just a person I can leave because he stood by me when my parents cut off connections. He took care of me, and he's a family. That unit, that's the only place I can call mine, my possession."Chad gripped the steering wheel. He hasn't turned on the engine yet because right now, they have to decide. They have already been arguing over this for weeks now, and the exam is already coming. So Ethan wanted to decide with no arguments involved because this conversation was taking a toll on him. He doesn't kn

    "That was hard," said Chrystyn as she put her pen back in her pencil case and then zipped it. "I guess it was easy for you, huh, because Chad's tutoring you?"Ethan rolled his eyes. "Of course not. It doesn't mean we are living together means he's teaching me. We are just a normal couple."Ethan and Chrystyn have reconnected their friendship when they meet again for their next class. They talked a lot about things during the weeks they have missed to converse. They also stroll around the town before classes. Chrystyn's also just planning to stay over at Ethan's unit.Chrystyn shrugged. "Just kidding. You're too smart!"She grabbed Ethan by the arm and whispered, "You think I wouldn't notice how both of you were looking at one another earlier?"Ethan blushed. Chad was their proctor for their last exam, and they have been teasing one another with their stares. He remembered biting his lips and spinning his pen with his fingers while staring at Chad.

    Ethan woke up holding his head and groaned and massaging his temple. He had a blurry memory of what happened yesterday. Chad’s usually on the bed next to him when he wakes up in the morning, but he wasn’t there this time. He heard someone inside the bathroom, showering. It must be Chad.He put his other hand on the bed for support as he continued massaging his head. He wondered how in the hell does he went home. He knows it’s Chad that took him home, but how did he do it without anyone noticing?He felt a cold breeze. He wrapped his arms around his body and looked at it, and he realized that he didn’t wear anything. He looked under the sheets and noticed that he wasn’t wearing any underwear either.What happened had sunk in as his hands gripped tighter, remembering what happened yesterday.As they finished making out yesterday, they went out of the room after the person next to the cubicle had left the bathroom.

    He opened the door to the unit. Chad greeted him with a smile only to see him deep in thoughts. Chad greeted him and said, "How was it?""It was bad," he said as he walked towards the living room and let himself fall on the couch, "It was very bad, Chad."Chad walked up to him and caressed his face. He is getting tear-eyed at this moment because when everything is getting too perfect, something and someone will always come to ruin that. He wanted someone to blame but couldn't bring himself to blame others but himself for being so vulnerable and easily deceived."Don't you think we should stop it now?" asked Ethan; a tear fell from his eye. He saw Chad stunned hearing what he said. "Dianna took pictures of us, and Mellow, you know her, she took that camera and run away with it, and maybe now she's already uploading it. It doesn't matter for me now because my parents aren't here anymore and that I have my apartment, I can live with that. How about you? You are a p

    Ethan picked up the toys that were scattered on the floor. He put those toys one by one onto the treasure box. As he picked up the last toy, he stumbled upon the Christmas gift, and he placed it back again where it should be. He stood up straight, touching the Christmas tree with his hands. It's that time of the year again, and every time this holiday comes, sadness seeps in. The nostalgic feeling always comes back because this is the time where he and Chad end things.And here he is after seven years have passed, still carrying the feeling that happened on that day. He still remembered it clearly up to this day, letting himself take a trip down memory lane."…maybe we can even marry each other!" Rebecca said as Ethan remembered clearly. That's when he realized that when things go smoothly and perfectly, something will always ruin that moment.When he looked at Chad at that time, he just smiled, like it was nothing. Like they were just friends and roommat

    Time seems to fly fast. A year has passed after they were both kicked out of the university. When the people living in the apartment, Pearl Haven, heard the news about Chad being the professor and the manager of the apartment, some of them didn't mind, and some moved out. The news spread fast in the city to the point that they must lower the unit prices to attract more people. Although they moved already past that, and now they are making more income than ever when people saw how much they had changed their apartment, and there's no issue with Chad being the manager.They matured more, particularly Ethan, who has learned how to save financially. He's also trying to get new ideas to improve more of the apartment. It looked so expensive, but the price was just affordable, and that's what they are after because they knew that's what people want. He didn't get to finish what he came here in the first place, but he's thankful for Chad and Yohan for helping and staying by his side.
