LU JIAOSHENG: You lovebirds, are you trying to put more jealousy in my single status life?

Lu Jiaosheng sent a reply to their groupchat when Ho Min Lin sent a photo of the four of them sitting cozily at the Old Oak Tree.

HO MIN LIN: So you better find a girlfriend soon.

LU JIAOSHENG: I'll find a girlfriend once Lee Jin Ho got one.

Lee Jin Ho who was reading the conversation with Tan Ja Nin smirked.

YAN MOR TEE: Lee Jin Ho has a girlfriend now.

Tan Ja Nin was surprised to see Yan Mor Tee's reply. She looked at Lee Jin Ho asking for an explanation.

"Did you tell him?" Tan Ja Nin asked.

Lee Jin Ho nodded. "But I didn't tell him that it's you!" He said. He was hoping that Yan Mor Tee will not blurted out anything more than that piece of news to everyone. "S-should we tell them now?"

Tan Ja Nin fell silent. "I'm not sure what would be my brother's reaction if he tell them that we're together now."

"So shall we continue to keep it as a secret for now?"

LU JIAOSHENG: You kidding me! When did he meet his girlfriend? Did he tell you? I'm sure he was just lying on his teeth.

YAN MOR TEE: Why are you so upset? Is it because you're the only one single soul in our group now? Haha.

LU JIAOSHENG: At least I'm not the only virgin.

YAN MOR TEE: Haha! Lee Jin Ho is no longer a virgin!

"Lee Jin Ho!" Tan Ja Nin said in a gritted teeth. What else does this guy shared to Yan Mor Tee?

Lee Jin Ho tried to explain. "I-I..." he was lost for words because he was swearing a death sentence for Yan Mor Tee if ever he saw him again.

"You what?!"

"I'm sorry. I was drunk that night" Lee Jin Ho said, trying to look for an escape.

"Drunk? Is it the time that you went out with him anf have a drink in a broad daylight?"

Lee Jin Ho looked at Tan Ja Nin and suddenly felt scared. Why was this woman so scary when she was mad? He tried to hug her.

"Don't be mad. I just said it because they always teased me that I'm the only one virgin among the four of us. They even doubted my sex preference"

Tan Ja Nin anger was gone when she heard his explanation. "Why would they doubt your sex orientation? You were inlove with Song Dei Si for ages for Pete's sake."

Lee Jin Ho lowered his head. "They tried to hook me up with a girl on the club but instead of having a one night stand with her, I ran away!"

Tan Ja Nin suddenly laughed. "Why did you run away?"

"I just don't feel like doing it with her!"

Tan Ja Nin fell silent. "We're you drunk that night too?"

Lee Jin Ho nodded

Tan Ja Nin lips curled up. "But have the urge to run away because you didn't like doing it with that girl? So you still a sense of what's happening?"

Lee Jin Ho nodded again.

Tan Ja Nin looked at him and wanted to ask that question. "On the night that you slept with me, are you aware that it was me that you'd bumped into and brought home to your pad?"

"I'm not that drunk that night..." Lee Jin Ho admitted.

"Why did you do it with me?" Tan Ja Nin asked.

"For strange reason, my body reacted on you. I'd tried to control it but you we're so aggressive that night and never let me go."

Tan Ja Nin eyes widened in disbelief. She could not believe that she was the one who made the first move. She had always thought that it was Lee Jin Ho who took advantage of her first and she just could not resist him because she was weak that night.

"I was thinking, what if you weren't that guy who I bumped into that night, shall I throw myself to him too like what I did to you?" She emotionally asked.

"Are you thinking that you can easily throw yourself into someone's bed because you're too drunk?"

"It could be a possibility right? I didn't know that it was you that night..." Tan Ja Nin lips started to tremble.

"Don't think too much. You are not an easy woman. I always wanted to believe that it was fate that brought us together." Lee Jin Ho said trying to console her, he started to understand her fears. He kissed her forehead. Tan Ja Nin closed her eyes. She was touched by the sincerity on his words. Maybe he was right. It was really fate that brought them together.

....

Ho Min Lin looked at Tan Ji Nan when she read Yan Mor Tee's reply.

"So you're no longer a virgin?" She asked him with anger on her voice.

Tan Ji Nan was caught off guard and looked at Yan Mor Tee with gritted teeth.

He hopelessly looked at Ho Min Lin and didn't know how to explain.

Song Dei Si castigated her husband and pinched him on the side.

She looked at Ho Min Lin and she didn't know what to say to console her.

"Don't take it so seriously. Yan Mor Tee was just bluffing earlier." She said.

"If he was just bluffing, why Tan Ji Nan could not answer my simple question?" Ho Min Lin said she was really angry. She was preserving her first time to him and yet, he lost his first to someone else.

"Ji Nan, answer it!" Yan Mor Tee said, urging his bestfriend to tell her the truth.

Song Dei Si gave her husband a glaring look. This man was really courting his death.

She doesn't want to be a widow at this early so she told Ho Min Lin and Tan Ji Nan that they will take their leave first.

Tan Ji Nan and Ho Min Lin was left under the Old Oak tree.

"Min Lin...it was part of you know...growing up. It was natural for someone who was in a relationship" said Tan Ji Nan trying to pacify his girlfriend.

"How many girls that you've done it with?"

"Does it matter?" Tan Ji Nan asked. He have at least 5 relationships before Min Lin and he have done it with all of them.

"Yes! So I can rate how expert you are now in bed! You must be on a second place after Lu Jiaosheng!" Ho Min Lin scoffed.

Tan Ji Nan pulled his own hair. How can he appease her?

It was all Yan Mor Tee's fault. If his relationship with Ho Min Lin was ruined because of nonsensical revelation, he could not promise if he would not beat him to death.

"Min Lin, you were aware that I have girlfriends before you, are you really expecting me that I just hold their hands?"

"Of course. We are in a relationship now and we haven't had sex yet. You told me that I was the only woman you have loved, that you don't love those girls before but why did you have sex with them? Are you just lying with me?" Ho Min Lin cried in a pit of anger.

Tan Ji Nan has blown his mind. How can a lovey-dovey scenario earlier escalated to a point that Ho Min Lin was now crying in front of him? He pulled her into his embrace. His girlfriend was so innocent and he must come up with a good explanation. He coaxed her like a child trying to explain the big world to her.

"Some men could have sex with some girls even without love involved. And some men could love a woman so much even if he can only just hold her hands."

Ho Min Lin looked at Tan Ji Nan. Was he telling the truth? Was was he trying to say? That sex and love were two different things?

"Aren't you suppose to have sex with the person you only love?" She asked because that was her perspective. Was a woman perspective different from men?

"Yes, I was wrong. I should not have sex with them because I don't love them. I am sorry." Tan Ji Nan said defeatedly. He realized that his girlfriend was still living in an ideal world.

Ho Min Lin fell silent. Tan Ji Nan stared at her and was trying to decipher what was on her thoughts. "Do you find our relationship boring because we never have sex?" She asked after awhile.

He shook his head. "Just what I said earlier. Men can love a woman so much even if he never have sex with her."

"Please don't leave me because I don't give myself to you yet." Ho Min Lin said.

Tan Ji Nan was stunned.

Why would he leave her? He love her so much that he was willing to wait for the right time.

"I won't" He promised.

Her angry demeanor earlier has gradually subsided.
