It was a busy afternoon at the café, the sunlight streaming through the windows and casting warm patterns across the floor. Phawin was carefully arranging a tray of pastries, humming softly, when a small magical spark flickered from his hands.

Before he could react, the magic leapt toward a nearby table, causing a customer to blush uncontrollably and accidentally spill their drink onto Achin’s jacket.

Achin froze, looking down at the stain, and then at Phawin. His usually calm expression faltered slightly, replaced by frustration. “Phawin… what happened?” he asked, voice tense.

Phawin’s ears burned. “I-I… I didn’t mean to! It was an accident!”

But Achin’s rival, Kael, happened to walk in at that exact moment. Seeing Achin looking upset, Kael smirked and leaned casually against the counter. “Oh? Did the little shy guy ruin your clothes, Achin? Maybe he’s not as perfect as you thought.”

Phawin’s heart sank. The words stung, and Achin’s tense posture made him panic. “I-I didn’t do it on purpose! I swear!” Phawin cried, fumbling with a napkin to clean the spill.

Achin crossed his arms, his gaze flicking between Kael and Phawin. “Phawin… I…” He hesitated, unsure how to respond, and in that moment, Kael leaned closer, whispering just loud enough for Phawin to hear: “Looks like he’s hiding something from you, doesn’t it?”

Phawin’s chest tightened. Hiding something? The jealousy and tension in Achin’s eyes made him feel small and misunderstood. He wanted to explain, to tell Achin everything about his magic, but his shyness kept him silent.

“I… I just… I didn’t mean to,” Phawin stammered, looking down at the floor, ashamed.

Achin’s expression softened slightly but was still clouded with frustration. “I know… but you have to be more careful, Phawin. People notice… and I don’t like seeing you get blamed.”

Kael smirked and left with a teasing wave, leaving a heavy silence between Achin and Phawin.

Phawin felt tears prick at his eyes. I just wanted to help… I didn’t mean to ruin anything…

Achin, meanwhile, struggled with his own emotions. He didn’t want to upset Phawin, but he also couldn’t deny the sting of embarrassment and the subtle fear that maybe Phawin wasn’t telling him everything.

The misunderstanding lingered for the rest of the day. Phawin avoided Achin’s gaze, embarrassed and guilty, while Achin tried to maintain a calm exterior, but tension hung in the air.

Later, after the café had closed, Achin finally approached Phawin in the quiet back room. He gently placed a hand on Phawin’s shoulder. “Phawin… I’m sorry I got upset,” he said softly. “I should have known it wasn’t your fault.”

Phawin blinked, his voice trembling. “I… I just… I didn’t want to ruin anything… or make you upset…”

Achin pulled Phawin into a gentle hug. “You could never ruin anything, Phawin. I… care about you too much to let a little chaos get in the way.”

Phawin’s tears fell, but they were tears of relief, not sadness. The misunderstanding had tested them, but it also reminded them of how much they truly cared for each other.

As they held each other, tiny golden sparks flickered around Phawin’s hands—a reminder of his magic, their bond, and the playful chaos that had brought them together in the first place.
