The next morning, sunlight streamed through the café windows, painting warm patterns on the wooden floor. Phawin busied himself with preparing drinks, but his mind was elsewhere—replaying yesterday’s events. Kael’s teasing, Achin’s protective words, and the subtle sparks of jealousy that had stirred something new inside him.

He poured a latte carefully, hands trembling slightly, and whispered to himself, “I… I think I like him. Really like him.”

Phawin’s blush deepened at the thought. He had always known Achin was special, but until now, he hadn’t fully admitted the depth of his feelings. Every smile, every gentle touch, every teasing remark had chipped away at his shyness, leaving him exposed but happy.

Achin arrived mid-morning, casually leaning against the counter. His eyes lit up when he saw Phawin, and that familiar warmth radiated toward him.

“You’ve been quiet today,” Achin observed, raising an eyebrow. “Thinking about something… or someone?”

Phawin’s ears turned pink, and he looked down, fumbling with a coffee cup. “I… I’m just… thinking,” he stammered. His heart raced. Does he know? Does he feel the same way?

Achin smirked softly and moved closer, brushing a loose strand of hair from Phawin’s forehead. “About me, maybe?”

Phawin froze. His chest tightened, and he could only nod faintly. “Y-Yes…”

Achin’s smile softened, and he gently took Phawin’s hands in his own. “You don’t have to hide it,” he whispered. “I like you too, Phawin… more than I thought I could.”

Phawin’s heart soared. For the first time, he felt completely seen, completely safe, and completely loved. His shyness melted in Achin’s gaze, leaving only a shy, happy smile.

The café bell jingled as a few customers entered, but the moment felt like it existed in a bubble—just Phawin and Achin. A soft, accidental brush of hands sent tiny sparks of Phawin’s magical energy dancing around them, unnoticed by everyone else but making the air feel warm and alive.

“Y-You… make everything… feel magical,” Phawin whispered, his voice barely audible.

Achin chuckled, leaning closer, his lips almost brushing Phawin’s ear. “That’s because you’re magical, Phawin. Inside and out.”

Later that afternoon, Achin and Phawin shared small moments of intimacy: helping each other with pastries, laughing at clumsy mistakes, teasing one another over coffee orders. Even Achin’s friends, who occasionally peeked in, noticed the growing affection, whispering to one another and grinning knowingly.

Phawin realized that liking Achin wasn’t just about his handsome looks or teasing charm—it was about the way Achin made him feel safe, cherished, and able to be himself. And Achin, in turn, seemed to feel the same way, showing care through gentle touches, playful words, and unwavering attention.

By the end of the day, as the café closed and rain softly pattered outside, Phawin and Achin walked together under a shared umbrella. Their hands brushed repeatedly, sending quiet shivers of excitement through Phawin, each touch reinforcing the truth he had finally admitted to himself: he was completely, utterly in love with Achin.

And Achin, glancing down at Phawin’s shy smile, felt his own heart swell. He had no doubt now—Phawin was the one he wanted, not just for today or tomorrow, but for all the days to come.
