Knock was stunned. He sat silently for a while, and then scratched his head, musing his hair.

"Hey... I don't understand what you mean. What the hell are you talking about? I really don't get it."

Heh. He's acting again. "When will you stop pretending like you don't have any feelings?" I tried to bore into his skull with my eyes.

"You seem to think I can read your mind, but I really have no idea what you're trying to say at all! Just tell me Korn, explain it to me clearly." Knock raised his eyebrows.

This deliberately obtuse line of questioning was making me feel vaguely nauseous. But he was still with Pleng, so it would be way too awkward to try to force him to understand now. All I could do was swallow the bile back down along with all the words and feelings that went with it. I couldn't just lay it all out for him, as things currently stood.

I pulled on his shoulder. "Just come back to me whenever you have conflicts with your wife, you tan jackass."

Knock kicked me with all his might, nearly knocking me off the bed. Luckily, I had a solid hold on the bed sheets and managed to save myself from toppling onto the floor. At this point, I was starting to get used to him suddenly kicking me, so I was able to react quickly. Somehow, I still found Knock adorable, even though he kept beating on me to hide his embarrassment. He'd never been gentle with me to begin with.

"Why did you kick me this time?!" I asked, turning to look at him.

"Want another one?" He asked shamelessly.

"Nah, I just want to go to sleep now!" I grabbed the duvet and pulled it up to cover us. Knock was still pulling on my arm and shaking me.

"You didn't answer my question. Don't pretend that you're asleep, it won't work."

"Have you ever heard this song? It goes like this: 'Love is great and it won't lead to two audiences'. So this is my answer. Or another song: 'Loving two persons, I can't accept that you share your love with two, loving me and her, are you dreaming?' Now do you get it?"

"You mean I should make a choice?" Knock raised his eyebrows.

"Yep. You have to. No one would be okay with their boyfriend saying he loved two people at once."

"What would you do if that were you?"

"You mean if I loved two people at once?" I repeated, raising my own eyebrows.

He nodded. "Yeah, I wanna know. But I'm not talking about me, it's my friend who's in this love triangle now. He asked for my help, but I didn't know how to answer him, so I came to you."

"Aren't you tired of this yet?"

"Huh?"

"Aren't you tired of pretending this is about your friend when it's really about you?" I teased. He laughed but it sounded forced; it had been a little too loud to sound natural.

"Hahaha! Hey~ I'm really talking about my friend, really; you need to trust me. Did we lose the trust in our relationship?"

"Yeah, I'll trust you for now. Just tell your tanned idiot friend, ask him to think about it, on how to make a choice. If a person says nothing, the others won't know what he's thinking or how he's feeling." I knew Knock was referring to himself, I'm just taking preventive steps. I was pretty sure that Pleng still had no clue as to the true extent of the situation, but women are highly intuitive. Even if she didn't have enough evidence, I was certain that she must at least suspect.

"What tanned idiot are you talking about!! Don't act like you know my friend well!" Knock was acting tsundere*. I wasn't at all sure how he felt about me and I wasn't going to pursue this topic further for now. I just played with his hair, idly twirling it around my finger.
