I secretly smiled, I'm already gay, but I'm shaking. I'm still grateful to her friends because without them, I wouldn't be able to hug Ellise. I secretly admire her because she's so kind and beautiful.

He is also famous in our school. He always participates in contests and always wins, and I admire him a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if all the guys in college have a crush on him. Because everything you want is in him, maybe that's why I started liking him too. My friends and his cousin Ellaine, who is also my cousin, know about it.

"Yieeee, our King got romantic excitement," Jaydon said.

"He scored a point with his crush," Shaw said.

"I'm really romantic excitement," Levie said.

"It's different when you're hit by love," Sam said.

I was just shaken by these comments. They were naughty because they were more excited than me, but I was still shaking. I opened my office and went straight to my swivel chair and sat down. They also sat on the sofa in my office.

I put my index finger on my chin while smiling. I didn't have a paw, so they couldn't see me. I remembered how Ellise and I first met.

—FLASHBACK—

"Happy Birthday, Dark," my male playmates greeted me, including Jaydon and others.

I smiled sweetly at them. I was just 7 years old that day, it was my birthday. We were just playing tag. Suddenly, a woman entered, probably in her 30s. I thought she was a nanny. I looked at the little girl with her. She was wearing a beautiful white dress, with slightly curly hair and a flower crown on her head. She looked like a fairy, a mestiza, like a child of a Hollywood artist.

But she just looked at me and smiled. My heart skipped a beat at what she did. I don't know why. She seemed like a witch, but I didn't pay attention to her and just left to join my playmates.

Days passed, but I couldn't forget that little girl. I was at our court outside our mansion because I was bored. I was playing basketball alone since Jaydon and the others weren't there. Suddenly, three kids approached me.

"Skinny," one of them said, and they all laughed. I was skinny back then, and I didn't know anything.

But I didn't pay attention to them and just shot the ball into the hoop. It didn't go in, so they laughed even harder.

"Ohhhhh...because you're blind," one of them said, and they laughed even more.

They were making fun of me, so I got angry and threw the ball at one of them, hitting him and making him fall. The other two helped him up.

"Hey..." someone suddenly shouted, and they stopped beating me up.

I saw the little girl I saw at my birthday. She looked even more beautiful, like a goddess who came down to earth. She blocked me from getting hurt and hugged me. I hugged her back. Thank you so much, Lord.

I saw from the corner of my eye that her friends took out their phones and took pictures of us. She smelled so good, I might die from it. She's known as King, cold and unapproachable.

"I'm sorry," I said in a panic.

"Nah! It's okay," she said.

"But I'm really sorry. My friends pushed me, does anything hurt? Tell me," I asked, worried.

I saw her secretly smile, but I wasn't sure about it.

"Nah! It's okay," she said.

"Ellise, are you okay? Does anything hurt?" my friends Jaydon suddenly shouted, so I distanced myself from her.

We talked about what happened to me, and I told her everything.

—STILL FLASHBACK—

After that day, I never saw that girl again. I found out that she went to Switzerland to study. I was so sad, I didn't know why. But it wasn't admiration that I felt for her anymore. I just looked at her with her wavy black hair, smooth complexion, sexy body, sharp nose, and red lips. She was perfect. I didn't realize that I didn't feel admiration for her anymore. Many people have liked me, even until now. But I know that was the last time we saw each other. She came back after many years and studied at our school. I was so happy back then. She always invited me to the bar with my friends, and that's where I poured everything out, but it didn't work.

—END OF FLASHBACK—

I couldn't help but get lost in my thoughts, reminiscing about our past. My friends who were present in the office looked at me, waiting for more conversation.
