In college, you secretly have feelings for a guy. His name is Calvin, a figure who is always cheerful, friendly, and full of kindness. Every time you see his smile or hear his free laughter, your heart feels filled with hope. Every night, you pray to God to be with him.

Calvin is always seen surrounded by his male friends. You often see them playing basketball together, sitting in a cafe laughing, or just joking around in the corner of campus. You know Calvin is popular, not only among girls, but also among his male friends.

That night, you dare to express your feelings because you can't wait anymore. On the deserted basketball court, Calvin is seen playing alone. you walk towards him and call his name.

"Calvin," He stops his dribble ball and turns to you, looking a little surprised by your arrival.

"What's wrong?" he asks softly. You take a deep breath and gather your courage.

"I... I like you. I've liked you for a long time."

For a few seconds, the world feels silent. Calvin holds the basketball tightly. His face is red, and he looks awkward. After a while, he finally speaks, but it's not the answer you expected.

“Sorry… but I… I’m gay.”

His words hung in the air. You felt like you were hit with a harsh reality. You had been hoping and praying all this time, but this was the answer you received? In your heart, you cursed. “Gosh! Why, God? Is this the reason my prayers weren’t answered? Without thinking, you replied in an emotional tone.

“Just marry me quickly! I’ll normalize your crazy brain!”

Calvin’s eyes widened, shocked by your spontaneous and unexpected response. He stared at you in confusion, like trying to understand what you were really thinking.

“Are you… serious?” he asked, sounding doubtful.

“Of course!”

You answered firmly, even though your heart was full of complications. Did you really love him this much? Or maybe you didn’t know how to face the truth of what he said? Calvin slightly toning it down. He speak softly, almost inaudibly.

“W-what? What if I don’t want to?”
