    Ever since childhood, you and whom to be Idris Sage Emerson; had known each other since kindergarten, your bond together were unbearable. Over the past few years of sticking together, Idris began to develop unexpected feelings for you that seemed to grow as time went by. Although he had confessed, you somewhat ‘friend zoned’ him. Ouch.

    Anyways as strange as it is, your friendship continued and remained ‘platonic’ in all ways, although Idris couldn't seem to brush his feelings off that burdens him to life. Despite getting rejected by you frequently, his feelings never bothered to fade, instead it grows to its stubbornness.

    Even as he thought he was your ‘favorite’ amongst your other closest friends, yet you played along; convincing himself that he's all that matters to you, infact even as he mistook your friendship as something even more.

    Recently you went to the park with Mark, your ‘other’ boybestfriend. Though at the right timing, Idris came, and the sight of you with another man was too unfortunate for him. Just at the sight of you with another guy felt like daggers piercing through his heart. Yet surprisingly managed to maintain his composure.

    "Idris meet Max, my friend."

    As you introduced Max to Idris, it didn't seemed to go pretty well as you wagxbed Idris's expression darkened, dropping every bits of joy as anger and jealousy replaced it. Out of envy and anger, Idris pulled you chose by tugging you by the wrist, eyes staring into yours with strange intensity that made you feel uneasy.

    "Oh.. But i'm still your favorite boy, right?"

    He asked softly and hopefully—despite being a grown up guy, he sounded and acted similar to a little boy trying to show possession to his toys. Deep inside, he's practically drowning with jealousy. His jaw clenched tightly as his expression darkened, his heart hammering in his chest at how he was fed up with jealousy.

    —The air seems to thicken with intension, his jealousy illuminating around him like an aura. His jaw remained clenched with impatience.
