While Loft had ceased his feasting some time ago, feeling satiated, he found himself watching as Kin continued eating at a steady pace. His brows rose in mild surprise.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VgxBge2vJ
"You can eat more than I thought, P'Kin," he remarked, a teasing note evident in his voice.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqHlL9Gjqp
Kin chuckled, a piece of meat halfway to his mouth, "Well, I have a lot more inside me to feed," he responded, his tone light and teasing.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXZy0ATd8B
Loft's brows quirked in amusement. "Inside you? You mean like parasites?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASD0h4n3d7
Laughing at the unexpected interpretation, Kin shook his head, "No, these monsters," he responded, flexing his bicep playfully. His muscles bulged impressively under the skin, proving his point.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rVOHC9cp5
Loft couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. "Alright, it seems you really do have a lot to feed," he retorted, his gaze fixed on Kin's bulging pectorals. "They almost look ready to explode."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDL1BH2JhP
"They won't explode easily. If there's something that would explode, it would be something else,”Kin's eyes twinkled with mischief as he retorted.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25VISkYrDt
Caught off guard by the slightly naughty vibe from Kin's words, Loft blinked in surprise. Then, curiosity piqued, he asked,
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9G4GHvsVh
"What? What is it then?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRiE6A5VWh
Kin maintained the suspense, letting a moment of silence stretch out. His gaze moved from Loft, drifted towards his crotch area, then made its way back to Loft's eyes. A playful smirk tugged at his lips as he delivered his punchline,
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUIYGhA8sS
"...my stomach."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpu0gPDWyy3
The unexpected response caused Loft to burst out laughing, relief and amusement combining into an infectious peal of laughter.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKZKXOT4fL
"Well, I believe it would if you continue eating like this," he retorted once he'd regained his composure, his eyes twinkling with the shared jest.

As the doors of the skytrain slid closed behind them, Kin and Loft found themselves standing in a corner of the crowded car. The hum of conversation and the rhythm of the train's motion were the backdrop to their own dialogue.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SJJ70DMLm
"What a long day," Kin groaned, stretching his arms over his head. His muscles stood out in relief against his sweat-drenched shirt. “Still quite a while on this train before we're home."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj8m9NYawh
Loft looked at him with concern, noting the signs of fatigue in his companion's face.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkz0fbGZSl
"You look really exhausted, P'Kin. How about taking a seat?" he suggested, gesturing to the last vacant seat nearby.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzPQtgLr9w
"Nah, maybe just keep it for those who really need it," Kin replied, leaning against the train side, his eyes flicking to the bustling city view outside the window. His strong body easily absorbing the sway of the moving car.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLASwFZYZ5
Loft chuckled at his comment. "Such a good guy," he teased, then his expression turned serious.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7x4M0zigx
"Can I ask you a bit of a serious question?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9WAZwDITM
"What is it?" Curiosity piqued, Kin met his gaze.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl72JIV8iN3
Loft hesitated for a moment before asking, "Would you consider having someone? I mean, like, getting into a serious relationship?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns7LMr12lX
Kin was silent for a moment before answering, a mix of sadness and playfulness in his tone.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa6sE9eqsC
"Well, I do consider it, but it seems like I'm not the one who's lucky in love."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cfFxBH9pY
"Why would you say that?” Loft frowned, confusion clouding his features.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QUBrh3HsU
“A guy like you with such an impressive build, your face isn't...bad, and your good charisma attracts so many hot guys. I wouldn't think it'd be difficult for you to find someone who suits you."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoIMBRvrxq
"Well, it's quite difficult actually,” Kin chuckled, the sound echoing around them. “Every time I want to start a serious relationship, it ends up in catastrophe." He paused, looking at Loft with interest.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj29XPAhB9b
"And what about you? Have you ever considered?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEQuIDUBWJ
Loft sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Well, I have dated some girls. They were hot, they were nice, but in the end, it never worked out."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53iXOwqTyC
Kin nodded, understanding in his gaze. "Maybe you're still enjoying campus life, your music, your band?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpIYNhobBm
Loft shrugged, a playful glint returning to his eyes. "Yeah, seems like that. Maybe just like you enjoy the company of your friends...all your hot guys." Loft grinned mischievously, watching as Kin laughed, shaking his head.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPnxdulIfr
With an amused shake of his head, Kin concluded, "Maybe you're correct, and that's maybe the reason I really don't have 'someone'. I already have their good company."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85hPEmzenS
His voice held a fondness for his friends, a subtle admission of his contentment with his current life.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLMKVy8V4E

Several stops had passed since their conversation, the hustle and bustle within the train gradually fading as the crowd thinned. The once crammed cabin now held a sparse number of passengers, its aura mellowing with the approaching late hours. Kin remained standing, leaning against the train's side wall, his eyes half-closed in the wake of the day's exhaustion.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1fmsYsBIK
"P'Kin, there are plenty of seats now and we still have a while to go. Let's take a seat," he suggested, a hint of insistence in his voice.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopkIMA0XAV
Kin raised his eyebrows in mild surprise, then nodded, his fatigue pulling his eyelids down in agreement. They ambled over to the vacant seats, the swaying rhythm of the train a reminder of the long journey ahead.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDRlOwzBTI
As they continued to traverse through stations, Loft observed Kin out of the corner of his eye. His senior's head was lolling back, swaying slightly to the rhythm of the train - sometimes leaning right, sometimes left, and occasionally bobbing forward.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzUCQVMjO2
"Maybe you're over your limit today," Loft mumbled, watching Kin with a mix of amusement and concern.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKDYEc6xjb
Just as he finished his sentence, the train braked suddenly, jolting Kin forward in his seat. Loft's hand shot out instinctively, catching Kin before he could collide with the floor. As the recorded voice of the announcer filled the cabin with apologies for the abrupt stop, Loft steadied Kin back to his seat.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9gFE8dVpn
"That was dangerous, P'Kin," he muttered, looking at Kin with worry etching his face. Realizing that the sleep-deprived Kin might not be able to keep himself steady, Loft took a quick decision.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqekfixPh8
"Maybe this is better," he suggested, gently guiding Kin's head to rest on his shoulder to provide support. Kin seemed too exhausted to resist, and within moments, he was sound asleep.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSrZC4iNKn
Loft sat still, taking in the sight of the sleeping man leaning on his shoulder, memories of the day began to flash in his mind. He remembered Kin’s attentive expression during the architecture tour, the gentle way he sipped water, and his playful banter at the Shabu restaurant. He found himself smiling softly, a warmth spreading in his chest.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSp525ZQjW
"You're really something, P'Kin," Loft murmured under his breath, so softly that only he could hear it.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVc27A4O9E
“Now I’m starting to understand why you always have those guys around, hot or not, just as you say."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUkQZCiCIW
His words hung in the air, a silent confession to the sleeping figure on his shoulder.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWZv2DQFfe

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv77snLlDa
The train's rhythmic movements gradually slowed, signalling the approach to another station. Loft gently nudged Kin, his fingers lightly brushing through Kin's tousled hair.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREUGOCIgNU
"P'Kin," Loft gently coaxed, and Kin roused, his eyes squinting against the harsh train lights.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGqSFBGCml
"Are we at your stop yet?" Kin asked, his voice still laced with sleep.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwrvmjPgA5
Loft shook his head, "No, it's actually your stop. We've already passed mine two stations back."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibXELiirxp
Kin looked up in surprise. "Why didn't you get off?"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Dxwbdud9i
"I wanted to make sure you got home safely. You were asleep and I didn't want to leave you alone," Loft said, his voice soft with concern.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqRiH9ZgAC
"You could've just woken me up," Kin mumbled, his voice betraying his gratitude.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5peEbiJVam
Yet before he could say more, the overhead announcement rang through the carriage: "Approaching Station NL16.” Loft gently guided Kin to his feet, and they exited the train together.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobrWnEmLcI
At the station exit, Kin attempted to send Loft back. "You really didn't have to come all this way," he said.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WZYh6sMzN
But Loft insisted, his concern for Kin evident in his words. "You were tired, and it's late. It's better to be safe."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTOxmhIkrB
Kin smiled, flexing his arm in jest. "Don’t worry about me, my physique is my best defense. Thieves wouldn’t dare approach me."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVSmBv7MCo
Loft chuckled, "Of course they would. And they might even be more aggressive to make sure they can take you down.”
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEa93qn9Zg
Shaking his head, Kin replied, "Seriously, this area is quite safe. You should go home."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8gK2lrtXw
"Actually, I'm tired too. I'll call a ‘Grab-taxi’ to get back," Loft stated, gesturing to his phone.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVMBkMjD2M
"Alright then," with a sigh, Kin gave in.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0b0oWaXtb
As they exited the station, Kin pointed down the road. "My place is just three or four minutes from here."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhROInEvgdW
"Really? That's close," Loft noted. "In that case, I'll walk you there."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8wnBnbmxM
Too tired to protest, Kin simply nodded. They walked together to Kin's home, a charming mid-end low-rise condo building.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJWrKKrtwu
"This place is nice," Loft observed as they approached.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfsXQrrF8Q
"Yeah, it's quite pretty," Kin agreed. He then turned to Loft, a teasing smile on his lips.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0t6K12dg7
"Thanks for taking care of me this evening. You've been treating me like I'm your little girl, taking me out to dinner, letting me sleep on your shoulder, walking me home…"
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU3m2IMGKi
Loft grinned at Kin's words, a playful sparkle in his eyes. "Wasn't I sweet?" he said, his voice dripping with mischief.
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61hQ8sYZty
They shared a final laugh before parting ways, Kin waving him off with a soft "See you, Nong-Loft."
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOtPE4wvDB
Loft, in response, turned around dramatically, clutching his heart in a mock heart attack, bringing their day to a light-hearted close.
