In the bustling cafeteria, Kin was making his way around the sea of occupied tables, a tray of food balanced precariously in his hands. He was in search of a quiet corner when he was hailed by a familiar voice. His female friend, Nok, was waving him over, an open laptop and a sea of papers spread out in front of her.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAxJfLM3azTI
"Do you have a minute, Kin? We really need to discuss our business project report," she asked, her voice filled with urgency. Kin, agreeable as ever, nodded his affirmation, carefully maneuvering his way to her table.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAvITywdwpLH
As they settled into their seats, Nok dived right into the matter at hand. "Kin, the data you provided has been invaluable to our project," she said, pointing at some figures on her laptop screen. Kin, feeling slightly pleased, merely nodded and remarked on how glad he was that his input was beneficial.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAC8MzqJdNm8
"Yes, that sounds like a good direction," Kin affirmed as Nok inquired about the prospective direction of their project, he nodded his approval, his mind teeming with additional suggestions.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAAXRo2MZtt8
Their conversation was abruptly interrupted when a tall, striking figure materialized in front of them. It was Loft, his fierce features radiating an imposing aura, yet his smile was disarmingly charming.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAZKWZnxNdI8
"Would you mind if I join you? It appears all the other seats are taken," he queried, his gaze locked with Kin’s.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAIZl6pBIm2O
Kin, a little taken aback by the sudden intrusion, shared a quick glance with Nok before agreeing,
226Please respect copyright.PENANA6Y0VfSlZ0Y
"Uh…sure."
226Please respect copyright.PENANA5pOKdQ0dfU
His voice held a hint of hesitation, which didn't seem to deter Loft in the least. Loft slid into the chair opposite Kin, settling his imposing frame comfortably. Nok attempted to resume their conversation, although she seemed slightly daunted by Loft's renowned reputation. Loft interjected, turning his attention to Kin,
226Please respect copyright.PENANAkVttsjP3Nu
"You must be P'Kin."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAaB6yd4BSYz
Kin looked at him with a hint of surprise, nodding in confirmation, "Yes, I am. But how did you know my name?”
226Please respect copyright.PENANANBZPBbdWwF
Loft responded easily, explaining their brief encounter at a party some days back. "You seemed quite close to some of my batch-mates from the architecture department. That's how I remembered you.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAoM84tZtikV
Kin nodded, understanding dawning on him. "Oh, so you're a second-year architecture student?”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAPQZCQiwhWg
"Correct," Loft affirmed, pulling out his smartphone and handing it to Kin. "Would you mind if I followed you on Instagram?”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAqdzXyjgcBI
Kin hesitated briefly before accepting the phone, "Sure, you can." He navigated to his profile and typed his handle into Loft's search bar.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAjWzV5pIZMv
Loft flashed a charming smile, "Just to keep in touch. Perhaps we can meet up at a party with my friends sometime."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAcFSIdTPMIB
“Alright," Kin responded, a hint of reservation in his tone but a polite smile on his face.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAJh3S51KPHr
Their short interaction was brought to an end as Loft stood up, his snack finished. "Nice meeting you, P'Kin. See you around," he announced, pointing towards a group of friends at a distance. "I'll be joining them now.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANArDL6K8n1PV
"Okay, see you," Kin replied, bemused and slightly overwhelmed by the swift turn of events.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAAu8QP0OPV1
Once Loft was out of earshot, Nok couldn't help but tease Kin.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAglMM16enu7
"He must be quite taken by your hotness to ask for your Instagram handle," she said, a mischievous glint in her eyes. Feeling his cheeks heat up, Kin hastily denied it.
226Please respect copyright.PENANABceRQda1HQ
"No, he's just a friend of my close junior friends. It's not about my 'hotness'."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAf1SyE3xEGz
His voice held a hint of embarrassment, causing Nok to giggle. A mischievous glint sparkled in Nok's eyes, though she said nothing more, returning their focus to the project at hand.

After a grueling workout session, Kin found himself resting at the gym bar, the scent of sweat and the echo of weights clanging creating a familiar soundtrack. Dressed in his workout gear that clung tightly to his well-toned body, he perused the notifications on his phone. One particular alert caught his attention, a new follower notification from an Instagram account: 226Please respect copyright.PENANA9c1QpSJhds
226Please respect copyright.PENANAr59UKq9jIF
‘Ratchaphol_Loft_The_Cool_Guy_007'226Please respect copyright.PENANAfryfanICea
226Please respect copyright.PENANATveBWMHJId
226Please respect copyright.PENANAeZOWg4r0MC
Kin read out the Instagram handle silently, a small chuckle escaping his lips. The thought that the owner of such an ostentatiously childish handle was none other than Loft, the handsome, enigmatic architecture sophomore, seemed amusingly paradoxical.226Please respect copyright.PENANAFiAAPvDLm7
"Has he ever considered changing this handle?" He mused to himself, amusement evident in his voice.
226Please respect copyright.PENANA1VqHKjN4Is
His musings were interrupted by Aut, a muscular gym buddy who was bidding him a quick goodbye. Kin raised a hand in acknowledgment, his attention still partially on his phone screen. Deciding he had rested enough, Kin headed towards the locker room, his mind a whirl of thoughts about the events of the last few days and the sudden interest of two of the university's most desirable men in him.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAOPYbpIZfhY
Freshly showered and changed into casual clothes that did little to hide his chiseled physique. His well-built frame, especially his bulging pectorals and biceps, strained against the confines of his casual shirt, a visible testament to his rigorous workout session. Kin rushed out of the university sports complex, his phone in hand. He was so engrossed in typing a message that he nearly collided with a tall figure. To his surprise, it was Loft, again.
226Please respect copyright.PENANA0M5P4jkM0s
"Oh, hi there, P'Kin," Loft greeted him, his signature charming grin lighting up his face. "Isn't this a pleasant coincidence?”
226Please respect copyright.PENANA6IDEaYWTh5
A bit taken aback, Kin managed to reply, "Hi, yeah, it sure is surprising to meet you again.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAFGtTFMGwPT
Loft chuckled, "I just realized that I didn't formally introduce myself last time. I'm Loft."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAAYP2xF3YLa
Kin, not missing a beat, answered, "Yeah, I knew your name already, Loft."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAFFEBC5yprd
Suddenly Loft extended a hand towards Kin, offering him a red rose from the massive bouquet he was carrying. "Conside this a small token for our little encounters," he said, his voice soft yet firm.
226Please respect copyright.PENANA10C0rKmzrw
Caught off-guard, Kin frowned a bit, "A rose? I've already received one today…"
226Please respect copyright.PENANAVhIEhMfKso
"A symbol of friendship, goodwill, and maybe even affection," Loft clarified, looking at Kin intently.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAKNVDduBcsC
Aware of the symbolism, Kin felt a bit awkward, "I know its meaning, Loft.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAtZVOiUXhNh
Loft didn't back down, "Please accept it, P'Kin. I would be really happy if you do," he insisted, a light hint of pleading in his voice. "And hey, you can add another color to your rose collection.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAdOtH8zIXMw
Conceding, Kin decided to accept it, more to appease Loft than anything else. "Alright then.”
226Please respect copyright.PENANAyastrAyTk0
Loft's eyes roamed over Kin's physique, his gaze appreciative. "Your muscles look great in this shirt, P’Kin. Very...impressive. It must draw lots of attention...from girls and, maybe, guys too."
226Please respect copyright.PENANAjCNW5M1ul9
Kin, feeling a bit self-conscious, replied, "I just love hitting the gym regularly. It's nice seeing you again, Loft. And thanks for the rose." The need for some quiet and rest prompted him to end the conversation swiftly.
226Please respect copyright.PENANAK6uBZIGjUo
"See you around, P'Kin,"
226Please respect copyright.PENANAU5j3oP9GX5
Loft called after him, his handsome face beaming with what Kin assumed was an attempt to charm him. As Kin walked away, he couldn't help but feel a strange mix of amusement and bewilderment at the day's happenings.
