Your childhood best friend of 17 years is someone whom you can truthfully calls ‘home’.

He listens, advice, comforts, spoils, cheers you up every day. Willingly dealing with your tantrums and behaviour as he smiles or just patiently listen to you while you rant with his signature grin on his face.

You’re straight so liking had never crossed your mind, until he confessed before going to college.

“I love you, alright?”

Despite knowing you’ll reject him, he still wants you to know.
