In the bustling cafeteria, Kin was making his way around the sea of occupied tables, a tray of food balanced precariously in his hands. He was in search of a quiet corner when he was hailed by a familiar voice. His female friend, Nok, was waving him over, an open laptop and a sea of papers spread out in front of her.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNAJ6yojbH
"Do you have a minute, Kin? We really need to discuss our business project report," she asked, her voice filled with urgency. Kin, agreeable as ever, nodded his affirmation, carefully maneuvering his way to her table.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGEK8pWemI
As they settled into their seats, Nok dived right into the matter at hand. "Kin, the data you provided has been invaluable to our project," she said, pointing at some figures on her laptop screen. Kin, feeling slightly pleased, merely nodded and remarked on how glad he was that his input was beneficial.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz588UWexq
"Yes, that sounds like a good direction," Kin affirmed as Nok inquired about the prospective direction of their project, he nodded his approval, his mind teeming with additional suggestions.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44VZeK3pIp
Their conversation was abruptly interrupted when a tall, striking figure materialized in front of them. It was Loft, his fierce features radiating an imposing aura, yet his smile was disarmingly charming.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYQigOsbly
"Would you mind if I join you? It appears all the other seats are taken," he queried, his gaze locked with Kin’s.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeczvehsZsL
Kin, a little taken aback by the sudden intrusion, shared a quick glance with Nok before agreeing,
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaRwaRYL3s
"Uh…sure."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaMzWcf6V5
His voice held a hint of hesitation, which didn't seem to deter Loft in the least. Loft slid into the chair opposite Kin, settling his imposing frame comfortably. Nok attempted to resume their conversation, although she seemed slightly daunted by Loft's renowned reputation. Loft interjected, turning his attention to Kin,
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHA7UEMxJJ
"You must be P'Kin."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xiN8KB1bw
Kin looked at him with a hint of surprise, nodding in confirmation, "Yes, I am. But how did you know my name?”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHCRwt7k9T
Loft responded easily, explaining their brief encounter at a party some days back. "You seemed quite close to some of my batch-mates from the architecture department. That's how I remembered you.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhpvxr5SHW
Kin nodded, understanding dawning on him. "Oh, so you're a second-year architecture student?”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdQfM6i0c3
"Correct," Loft affirmed, pulling out his smartphone and handing it to Kin. "Would you mind if I followed you on Instagram?”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFmre9AcDI
Kin hesitated briefly before accepting the phone, "Sure, you can." He navigated to his profile and typed his handle into Loft's search bar.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryss2yk0NC
Loft flashed a charming smile, "Just to keep in touch. Perhaps we can meet up at a party with my friends sometime."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa0pPRTLmI
“Alright," Kin responded, a hint of reservation in his tone but a polite smile on his face.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsx7mjWEE5
Their short interaction was brought to an end as Loft stood up, his snack finished. "Nice meeting you, P'Kin. See you around," he announced, pointing towards a group of friends at a distance. "I'll be joining them now.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TjtWuMN3T
"Okay, see you," Kin replied, bemused and slightly overwhelmed by the swift turn of events.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VGh0QIWz9
Once Loft was out of earshot, Nok couldn't help but tease Kin.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z0mWILuO0
"He must be quite taken by your hotness to ask for your Instagram handle," she said, a mischievous glint in her eyes. Feeling his cheeks heat up, Kin hastily denied it.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CbIwYUoz3
"No, he's just a friend of my close junior friends. It's not about my 'hotness'."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA3jx8NN0U
His voice held a hint of embarrassment, causing Nok to giggle. A mischievous glint sparkled in Nok's eyes, though she said nothing more, returning their focus to the project at hand.

After a grueling workout session, Kin found himself resting at the gym bar, the scent of sweat and the echo of weights clanging creating a familiar soundtrack. Dressed in his workout gear that clung tightly to his well-toned body, he perused the notifications on his phone. One particular alert caught his attention, a new follower notification from an Instagram account: 204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPovYwu4n6M
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4zK09do8g
‘Ratchaphol_Loft_The_Cool_Guy_007'204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjsic1AIGg
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMLahU3xoZ
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfV0rN3xQ3
Kin read out the Instagram handle silently, a small chuckle escaping his lips. The thought that the owner of such an ostentatiously childish handle was none other than Loft, the handsome, enigmatic architecture sophomore, seemed amusingly paradoxical.204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4nIDkgYPH
"Has he ever considered changing this handle?" He mused to himself, amusement evident in his voice.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhceMxwhm9s
His musings were interrupted by Aut, a muscular gym buddy who was bidding him a quick goodbye. Kin raised a hand in acknowledgment, his attention still partially on his phone screen. Deciding he had rested enough, Kin headed towards the locker room, his mind a whirl of thoughts about the events of the last few days and the sudden interest of two of the university's most desirable men in him.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jxjOt8bHy
Freshly showered and changed into casual clothes that did little to hide his chiseled physique. His well-built frame, especially his bulging pectorals and biceps, strained against the confines of his casual shirt, a visible testament to his rigorous workout session. Kin rushed out of the university sports complex, his phone in hand. He was so engrossed in typing a message that he nearly collided with a tall figure. To his surprise, it was Loft, again.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z8l0r7njx
"Oh, hi there, P'Kin," Loft greeted him, his signature charming grin lighting up his face. "Isn't this a pleasant coincidence?”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOnqA89skq
A bit taken aback, Kin managed to reply, "Hi, yeah, it sure is surprising to meet you again.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp71AWObyAq
Loft chuckled, "I just realized that I didn't formally introduce myself last time. I'm Loft."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ8wJ7PWqA
Kin, not missing a beat, answered, "Yeah, I knew your name already, Loft."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASCrHVrWi2
Suddenly Loft extended a hand towards Kin, offering him a red rose from the massive bouquet he was carrying. "Conside this a small token for our little encounters," he said, his voice soft yet firm.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0IsEsm4hk
Caught off-guard, Kin frowned a bit, "A rose? I've already received one today…"
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzWemk07O9
"A symbol of friendship, goodwill, and maybe even affection," Loft clarified, looking at Kin intently.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9zTqsv9Qv
Aware of the symbolism, Kin felt a bit awkward, "I know its meaning, Loft.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9puOIpuc4
Loft didn't back down, "Please accept it, P'Kin. I would be really happy if you do," he insisted, a light hint of pleading in his voice. "And hey, you can add another color to your rose collection.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV4sDNDdco
Conceding, Kin decided to accept it, more to appease Loft than anything else. "Alright then.”
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54EFHpz5wI
Loft's eyes roamed over Kin's physique, his gaze appreciative. "Your muscles look great in this shirt, P’Kin. Very...impressive. It must draw lots of attention...from girls and, maybe, guys too."
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefQvEXuQ7X
Kin, feeling a bit self-conscious, replied, "I just love hitting the gym regularly. It's nice seeing you again, Loft. And thanks for the rose." The need for some quiet and rest prompted him to end the conversation swiftly.
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2nouZIesa
"See you around, P'Kin,"
204Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z5q3qKG5L
Loft called after him, his handsome face beaming with what Kin assumed was an attempt to charm him. As Kin walked away, he couldn't help but feel a strange mix of amusement and bewilderment at the day's happenings.
