(The What-if scenario after Calabash and LBD (?) Contains Angst~ TwT)

It would have felt weird and sick at that time, but now...

There's that slight possibility.

Everything has change.

Still the same city, yet different people lives in it.

That time when MK was asked a questioned.

It changed him.

It made him wonder.

"Are you sure you don't like like the dragon girl?" Red Son asked him.

"Why ya asking me?"

"It's just... I don't KNOW! Don't they say they always fall in love with their best friend?"

MK chuckled and then stopped midway, "they don't always fall in love. Mei and I have no romantic feelings whatsoever."

Red Son looked at him with doubt.

He raised his eyebrows as he states: "I saw the way you look at her when you thought no one was looking."

MK's eyes widen. 'REALLY?!'

"If you're sure that you have no romantic feelings. I'm not going to ask again. So long noodle boy!"

After their conversation, MK couldn't sleep. He wonders...

That week, he began to notice his heart beating fast than usual when she's around. Or how his stomach felt as if they were full of butterflies.

Maybe Red Son was right...

He likes like Mei.

MK splashes his face with water.

"Don't be stupid MK! You and Mei are just best friends! Nothing more than that... Red's just messing with you... Don't let it affect you MK!"

He faced his mirror image. At the mention of her name, his face slightly blushed.

He knew he wasn't fooling himself.

The more he tries to deny it, the feeling grows.

He can't lie to himself anymore.

He was falling in love with her. Out of all people, why did it have to be Mei?

But if he tells her... Would she even love him in a romantic way?

That time when he was inside the Calabash...

There's only one way to find out.

He was about to confront her, but he was too late...

Someone has already taken her hand.

H E R    F I N G E R S    E N T W I N E D    W I T H    H I S .

His stomach turned and tightens.

"MK! Red Son and I are together now!"

Her words pained him.

His heart ached.

Perhaps even broken at the sight of them...

M E I .

T O G E T H E R .

'Was that why Red had asked me?'

MK's hand hides inside his pockets.

"Congratulations... I.. uh..I forgot to do something for Monkey King! I'll see you guys later!"

As he rushed to get to the Flower Mountain, he felt his tears flowing down his cheek.

They both looked together.

He'll always stand and support her as her best friend, just like before.

Like he said.

They're just friends.

Nothing more than that.

He wondered how it end up like this.

How she became stronger.

And why she's happy with him.

W I T H     R E D    S O N .

Maybe it's for the best...

If only Red Son hadn't pointed it out.

..It wouldn't be hurting him this much..
