3rd person POV

Flashback

"Thank you for today" mew spoke as he followed gulf out of the small bar

"It's fine, I dragged you here" gulf said looking for the bus down the road

"What time is the last bus" gulf spoke to himself looking down the road

"I'll do my best" mew spoke making gulf turn and look at him who was clutching his backpack "I'll work hard" mew added confidently

"You don't have to strain yourself" gulf smiled a bit

"But-"

"I told you earlier regret can fuel you life" gulf said staring at mew who watched the ground

"Right.. so I'll work hard-"

"But... life isn't just about work, there's hanging out with friends, hobbies, and romance" gulf spoke walking closer towards mew, mew gave a forced smile before looking down at his shoes

"Those aren't for me" he muttered softly still looking at his feet until he saw gulf lean down he was slightly taller now since he was standing on taller ground

"Really" gulf asked staring and mew smiling, the two continued to stare gulf smiling mew just blinking with a blank shy face

"Aren't you just trying not to get your hopes up" gulf asked standing up straight again and mew avoided eye contact with gulf once more now looking off to the side

"It's okay you'll learn to love yourself more" gulf smiled patting mews shoulder making mew look at him

End of flashback

"You told me I'd learn to love myself more" mew repeated gulfs words with a small smile on his face as he stared at the ground "so I tried lots of new things and tried to enjoy doing more things... now I like myself 100 times more than back then" mew stated before he finished tossing the clothes into his Bin

"That was all you, I didn't do anything-"

"And you taught me a lot outside of work as well... learning to forgive others and put myself in there shoes, a simple smile, ordinary happiness, doing things on my days off.. after becoming an adult it was only you who taught me and reminded me of those things" Mew looked at gulf who seemed to be listening intensely

He then stood up walking towards the kitchen to clean the mess up, he turned looking at gulf just before he entered the kitchen area concerned as he saw gulf frozen just looking down at his lap

"Mr. Kanawut?" He called out softly

"....... I feel that way as well your the only person who makes me glad that I've lived for this long.... For 39 whole years I've been alone my mom died when I was young my father left me at the hospital I was practically raised there the doctors would take turns watching me so I didn't go to foster care because it was bad back then" gulf stopped for a second shoving his hands in his lap before continuing

"Until I was 18 I finished college online due to having to work everyone who raised me was old and dying one by one I've always thought when I hit 40 it would be the end for me that's why I didn't care about things which could help me nor did I care about life upgrades until you showed me there was more tlife than rice and beef everyday or just tea there's pancakes, waffles, smoothies, and all different sweet things" gulf sniffled wiping a tear that fell from his face

"Mr. Kanawut" mew mumbled slowly making his way towards gulf just as he reached down to grab gulfs face there was running bit turned in unison looking at mews phone the name Ms. Katerina was seen
