UNISTAR : Invisible Moon [ENG Version]

Chapter 30 : The Faraway Moon

"I don't like this T-shirt." P'In critiqued my shirt.

"Uh..." I said.

"It was from P'Wayu. I just borrowed it and I'll return it to him later."

P'In looked at my shirt and didn't say a word. While we passed through the night market on the way back, we saw a number of clothing stalls. I thought P'In would be in a hurry to feed his cat, but he just stopped at a male clothing stall.

"How much?" P'In pointed at a grey shirt with short sleeves.

"199 baht." The seller told us. P'In didn't even bargain, he just paid for it.

"No plastic bag." P'In added and took the shirt, paused before handing it to me.

"Wear." P'In said, short. I gasped.

"You want me to wear it now?" I asked.

"Yes." He nodded. "At night, it's cold."

"Oh? It isn't that cold. I'm alright." I didn't want to say no, but I was confused. The weather wasn't cold at all.

"I've already bought it." P'In looked at the shirt in his hands. I didn't know why, but his words made me feel like he would be sad if I didn't wear it.

"Okay. I'll wear it." I took the shirt and wore it over my current one.

"Button it," P'In said.

"Alright." I obliged. I didn't know whether I should cry or laugh.

I finally realised why P'In bought this shirt.

He just didn't want to see 'DomWhai' on me. He must really dislike this T-shirt from P'Wayu.

That's why he bought me a grey shirt — DomKati's colour.

Did P'In really preferred for me to only be in his fandom?

Or was it just my imagination?

P'In and I eventually went back to the dorms. I thought everything was done, and we would be separated. However, when I said goodbye, he said...

"How about we feed the cat together?"

He sounded like he was pleading, so I couldn't deny him.

I was in his dorm again. His room was still neat and clean. The total opposite from P'Wayu's room.

P'In poured some cat food into a bowl and kept the rest on the shelf. He walked out to the terrace and I followed him.

It was a bit colder than downstairs. I was glad that I was wearing the shirt he bought.

"Hold it." P'In handed me the cat bowl and looked around.

"Tri." P'In called. "Tri, Tri."

At first I wondered what he was saying, until I realised that it was a cat's name.

Meow~

The cat appeared. It jumped up to the terrace and made a purring sound. I immediately saw why P'In called it 'Tri' – because it was a tricoloured cat.

But...seriously. Why didn't he pick a more creative name? He didn't need to name the animals based on their looks all the time. First, that stray white dog was named 'White', and now, his stray tricoloured cat was named 'Tri'.

Well, I was glad that I was already named 'Win', otherwise, he might have called me 'Fade'.

"Hungry?" P'In asked the cat. The cat was snuggling at P'In's legs. So he lowered himself and fondled it. Then, the cat was lying on its back, letting him touch its belly.
