Three-Person Friendship

Shan watched Peter closely, not taking his eyes off him. "Are you really okay?" he asked. He couldn't hide his worry for Peter. Even though they fought more often than they got along, the worry of being partners was still there in his heart. 

"Do you see me as a dying man?" Peter asked sarcastically in reply to Shan's question. 

"Before, yes. You looked like you were dying yesterday, who knows today too but you were trying to cover it up. Who knows?" 

Peter looked at Shan intently. His gaze was clearly upset and unhappy with what Shan said. 

"I'm fine," Peter replied finally settling the argument. 

"Have you guys always been like this since you first met?" asked Mateo who was also in the same room as Shan and Peter.
